Pd-$Ce/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3-TiO_2$ catalysts were prepared by combined sol-gel and impregnation methods. Transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, $H_2$-temperature-programmed reduction, $O_2$-temperature-programmed desorption, and ethanol oxidation experiments were conducted to determine the properties of the catalysts. Addition of an optimal amount of Ce improved the performance of the $Pd/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3-TiO_2$ catalyst in promoting the complete oxidation of ethanol. The catalyst with 1% Ce exhibited the highest activity, and catalyzed complete oxidation of ethanol at $175^{\circ}C$; its selectivity to $CO_2$ reached 87%. Characterization results show that addition of appropriate amount of Ce could enrich the PdO species, and weaken the Pd-O bonds, thus enhancing oxidation ability of the catalyst. Meanwhile, the introduction of $CeO_2$ could make PdO better dispersed on ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3-TiO_2$, which is beneficial for the improvement of the catalytic oxidation activity.

석유화학산업에서 발생된 폐촉매에는 귀금속계 금속이나 회유금속들이 잔조해 있는데, 이들 유가금속을 회수하는 것은 환경보존과 자원재활용 측면에서 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 백금계 폐촉매로부터 귀금속을 회수하는 연구를 수행하였다. 폐촉매 시료로는 Naphtha로부터 에틸렌을 제조시에 사용했던 알루미나담체 0.3% Pd 폐촉매와, 원유 정제 후 벤젠, 톨루엔, 크실렌 등을 제조시에 사용한 알루미나담체 0.3% Pt/Re 폐촉매를 사용하였다. 시료들은 배소과정을 거쳐서 탄수와 황 등 원유로부터 유입된 가연성 물질들을 제거하고, 분쇄한 다음 6N 염산 및 왕수로 침출하였다. Pd는 Fe분말을 사용한 석출법에 의하여 침출액 중에서 금속 Pd로 회수하였다. Pt/Re 폐촉매 경우에는 염산 및 왕수로 침출 후 Fe 분말을 사용하여 Pt를 먼저 회수한 다음, 여액에 황화나트륨을 첨가하여 Re 황화물로 침전시켜서 Re을 회수하였다. 본 연구에서는 폐촉매 침출시 6N 염산을 침출액으로 사용하여 왕수를 사용한 것과 비슷한 정도의 침출효과를 얻을 수 있었는데, 이것은 침출시 소요비용을 줄이고 폐산처리시에 왕수보다 쉽게 처리할 수 있다는 점에서 공점상 효과적이다.

대기압 조건에서 고정층 상압 유통식 반응기를 사용하여 Pd(5)/SPK 촉매상에서 산소의 몰 비 변화에 따른 메탄의 열분해 반응으로부터 탄소 나노튜브 및 탄소 나노선을 제조하였으며, SEM과 TEM을 이용하여 분석하였다. $CH_4/O_2$의 몰 비가 1인 경우, 촉매층 지지대 표면상에 탄소가 거의 침적되지 않았으나, $CH_4/O_2$의 몰 비가 2인 경우에는 촉매층 지지대 표면상에 반응기를 봉쇄할 정도로 다량의 탄소가 침적되었다. 침적된 탄소를 SEM과 TEM을 통하여 분석한 결과 많은 수의 단일 벽 탄소 나노튜브와 탄소 나노선들이 만들어졌음을 확인할 수 있었다. 촉매 표면상에 침적된 탄소 나노튜브의 생성 메카니즘은 첨단성장방식이었고, 촉매 지지대 표면상에 만들어진 탄소 나노튜브 및 나노선들의 생성은 일정한 탄소 성장속도 벡터와 탄소 나노선의 링구조의 핵형성이 중요한 역할을 하였다. SPK 촉매 담체는 열 안정성이 우수하였으며, $N_2$ 흡착등온선은 중기공 세공이 잘 발달된 IV형이었다.

In this study, Pt/Pd (1.1), PtPd (2:1) and PtPd (3:1) binary catalysts and Pt/Ru/Pd (5:4:1) ternary catalyst were designed. The catalysts were synthesized by impregnation method using $NaBH_4$ as a reducing agent. A good catalyst for methanol oxidation requires low on-set potential, stable durability and low activation energy. In order to investigate the catalytic activity for the methanol oxidation, electrochemical measurements such as cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry were peformed in sulfuric acid with/without methanol solution. In order to calculate the activation energy of the reaction, electrochemical measurements were also tested at different temperatures. For investigation of the structural analysis such as particle size and alloying, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy analysis were used. In order to identify the role of the Pd and to determine the composition of the surface of the Pt/Pd nanoparticles, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis was investigated. The XPS spectra of Pd showed that Pd appears only as a metallic state in the binary catalysts. The chemical states of Pt in PtPd catalysts are both metallic and oxidative. Polarization curves and power density data were obtained by testing the DMFC unit cell performance of PtPd and PtRuPd catalysts. These data showed that Pt/Pd (2:1) and Pt/Ru/Pd (5:4:1) have better performance than Pt and Pt/Ru, respectively.

Experiments were carried out to investigate the characteristics of formaldehyde emission from the small gasoline engine and its reduction technologies. Catalytic converters used are Pt/Rh, Pd/Rh, Pd/Pt, $62cell/cm^2$ monolith type. The measurement of formaldehyde was conducted by using the method of DNPH-GC. From the experimental results, formaldehyde emission increased in a lean mixture due to incomplete combustion of the hydrocarbons. The order of catalytic activity of formaldehyde oxidation was Pt/Rh > Pd/Rh > Pd/Pt. As the distance from the exhaust manifold to the inlet of the catalyst became far, in spite of lower catalyst temperature, formaldehyde concentration decreased because of the adsorption of formaldehyde.

팔라듐 촉매는 주로 수소화 반응, 산화반응, 저온 연소반응 등에 사용된다. 특히 최근에 연료전지에 많이 시도되고 있는 알코올 등의 개질을 통한 수소가스의 발생을 할 경우에도 이 팔라듐 촉매의 가능성에 상당한 관심이 증폭되어 왔다. 귀금속 촉매인 팔라듐 촉매가 성능이 우수하지만 고가이고 내구성과 소성후의 성능저하 등이 해결해야 할 과제로 남아 있다. 본 연구에서는 내구성과 소성 후에도 성능의 저하가 없는 팔라듐 촉매를 합성하고 반응성을 연구하였다.

Stigmastanol, a functional agent of cholesterol-lowering in humans, was synthesized from stigmasterol. To investigate the usability as a raw material, the contents of sterol in vegetable oils and extract of soybean chaff were analyzed. The total sterol contents showed high values of 213.7 and 209.8 mg/100g in corn and soybean oils respectively. The extract of soybean chaff has played a good role as a raw material with high sterol contents. The kinetics of hydrogenation of stigmasterol was studied using a 5% Pd/AC catalyst in the temperature range of 30~$60^{\circ}$C. Increasing temperature showed a prominent decrease in conversion. The optimum temperature was $40^{\circ}$C for high yield of stigmastanol. The effects of $H_2$ pressure, agitation speed, catalyst loading, and stigmasterol concentration on reaction rate profile were also examined. From the power law model analysis using the initial rates of reaction, the reaction order was calculated as 0.705 for stigmasterol concentration and 0.147 for hydrogen pressure.

The roles of ceria on three-way catalyst is to improve the noble metal dispersion and thermal stability of support ${\gamma}$-$Al_2O_3$. And, ceria has a oxygen storage capacity(OSC) under fuel rich/lean conditions to improve the operating windows of NOx, THC and CO conversion. However, ceria has weak thermal stability under high temperature due to the crystallite growth. So that, the OSC of ceria is decreased, and then the conversions of NOx, THC and CO is decreased. One way of enhancing the thermal stability and NOx, THC and CO conversion Pd-only catalyst is to improve as well as its thermal stability and oxygen storage capacity of the ceria. Especially, the appropriate mixing ratios of bulk and stabilized ceria are very important for designing principles of Pd-only three-way catalysts. In this paper, we discussed the thermal properties of stabilizedand unstabilized (bulk) ceria, and the oxygen storage capacity (OSC) of catalysts, and found the correlation between activity and the OSC of Pd-only catalysts with various different mixing ratios of bulk and stabilized ceria. Finally, we propose the design principles to improve the thermal stability of washcoated Pd-only catalysts.

In this study, the effect of initial nitrate loading on nitrate removal and byproduct selectivity was evaluated in a continuous system. Nitrate removal decreased from 100% to 25% with the increase in nitrate loading from 10 to $300mg/L\;NO_3-N$. Ammonium selectivity decreased and nitrite selectivity increased, while nitrogen selectivity showed a peak shape in the same range of nitrate loading. The nitrate removal was enhanced at low catalyst to nitrate ratios and 100% nitrate removal was achieved at catalyst to nitrate ratio of ${\geq}33mg\;catalyst/mg\;NO_3-N$. Maximum nitrogen selectivity (47%) was observed at $66mg\;catalyst/mg\;NO_3-N$, showing that continuous Cu-Pd-NZVI system has a maximum removal capacity of 37 mg $NO_3{^-}-N/g_{catalyst}/h$. The results from this study emphasize that nitrate reduction in a bimetallic catalytic system could be sensitive to changes in optimized regimes.

팔라듐 금속을 활성탄과 알루미나에 담지시켜 Pd/AC (Pd/활성탄), Pd/AO (Pd/알루미나) 촉매를 제조하고, 오존/촉매공정에 적용하여 담지체의 종류에 따른 촉매 특성을 비교하였다. 담지체를 달리한 촉매 일정량을 오존포화수에 투입하고 오존분해능을 비교해 본 결과, 담지체의 종류에 따른 효율의 변화는 없었다. 오존단독공정과 Pd/AC, Pd/AO 촉매를 이용한 오존/촉매공정에서 dichloroacetic acid (DCAA)의 분해율 및 산화특성(TOC, $COD_{Cr}$)을 비교해 본 결과, 오존/촉매공정의 제거효율이 높았으며, 담지체에 따른 특성변화는 거의 없었다. DCAA 농도를 일정하게 하고 오존공급량을 변화시켜 제거율을 확인한 결과, 어느 수준까지는 오존공급량 증가에 따라 제거율이 상승하였지만, 1.0 L/min 이상의 오존공급량에서는 공급량에 비례하여 제거율이 상승하지 않았다. 이러한 원인은 DCAA의 완전산화에 의해 생성된 중탄산염과 분해과정에서 발생된 염소이온이 하이드록실 라디칼(${\cdot}OH$)의 스케빈저(scavenger)로 작용한 것 같았다.
