Gasification and melting method is one of the most potential means for waste treatment process with low emission of fly ash or heavy metal, dioxin and high possibility of using slags as resources. Moisture contents influences directly a gasification characteristics of waste. So it is necessary to investigate the effect of moisture contents in gasification. But it is hard to consider the effect of moisture contents, using samples of powder form of Milligram's order in existing thermogravimetric analyser. Therefore, we made a thermogravimetric analysis device to applicate samples of Gram's order. Gasification characteristics are typically reported with result from thermogravimetric analysis date for wood and RDF samples along with changing moisture contents. It is discussed the way to apply these analysis results to gasification and melting furnace.

The effects of zeolite type catalysts addition on the thermal decomposition of low density polyethylene(LDPE) and ethylene vinyl acetate(EVA) resin have been studied in a thermal analyzer(TGA, DSC) and a small batch reactor. The zeolite type catalysts tested were natural zeolite, FCC catalyst, used FCC catalyst, and catalyst A. As the results of TGA experiments, addition of antifogging-agent decreased the pyrolysis point to $250^{\circ}C$, but addition of longevity-agent and clay reduced the pyrolysis rate in EVA resin. Addition of the zeolite type catalysts in the LDPE resin increased the pyrolysis rate in the order of catalyst A > used FCC catalyst > natural zeolite > LDPE resin. Addition of the zeolite type catalysts in the EVA resin increased the pyrolysis rate in the order of used FCC catalyst > natural zeolite > catalyst A > EVA resin. In the DSC experiments for LDPE resin, addition of zeolite type catalysts decreased the melting point and the heat of pyrolysis reaction in the order of catalyst A > used FCC catalyst > natural zeolite> LDPE resin. In the batch system experiments, the mixing of natural zeolite enhanced the yield of liquid fuel oil.

The pyrolysis kinetics of polyurethanes synthesized from polycaprolactone diol (PCL) and diisocyanate (HDI, $H_{12}MDI$) using catalysts such as dibutyltin dilaurate (DBTDL) were studied by a thermogravimetric (TG) technique, which involved heating the sample at the rates of 10, 20 and $30^{\circ}C$/min. The effect of the kind of diisocyanate and the hard segment contents on the activation energy and reaction order were examined at conversions ranging from 1 to $100\%$. The activation energies at first increased slowly with increasing conversion. Also, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to investigate the structural differences in each polyurethane. DSC can reveal the melting behavior, in terms of the glass transition temperature ($T_g$), which is known to vary as a function of the stoichiometry and processing conditions.

To solve the problems of energy and environment conservation issued recently, mainly in mechanical engineering point of view, R&D's on the thermal, fluid and environmental engineering technology have been carried out by two R&D departments in the Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials (KIMM). Now there are 65 researchers in the two. The representative projects in the field of thermal and fluid engineering are development of an inactive gas generator and development of a cryogenic cooler for electronic sensors. Pyrolysis and melting of wastes, gas treatment using nonthermal plasma, and desalination are important technology to be developed in environmental R&D areas. To reduce the emission from the existing diesel engines for buses, an LPG direct injection type of bus engine is being developed supported by LPG supply companies. These several R&D projects which have been carried out in KIMM are introduced briefly.

A new synthetic route for the lanthanum β-diketonate compounds via in-situ formed lanthanum alkyl complexes was developed in the process for the development of suitable MOCVD (metal-organic chemical vapor deposition) precursors of PLT, one of the promising material for the ferroelectric film. A series of lanthanum β-diketonate compounds were successfully synthesized by this method. This new method is found to have some merits; versatile method for almost every β-diketone, β-hydroxyketone, and β-hydroxyaldehyde, short reaction time, easy purification for high purity, moderate to high yield, and easy access to anhydrous compounds. In some cases, anhydrous oligomeric products fail to show the higher volatility. On the other hand, some lanthanum β-diketonates with aromatic groups such as La(1,3-biphenyl-l,3-propandione)3 are found to have favorable properties for a precursor of lanthanum oxide, one of major components of PLT, such as low melting point, and much higher decomposition temperature. A plausible pyrolysis mechanism is proposed by the TGA, where consecutive dissociation of R, CO, CH, C, and O fragments occurs.

Due to the population growth and development of industry, waste from household and industries has increased. As the advanced countries experienced these problems, they have already started research on recycling methods of waste incineration ashes. Domestic recycling rate of incineration ash became up to 80 percent as high as the level of developed countries, but the recycling was limited to fly ash for admixture in concrete. In case of bottom ash, most of bottom ash was reclaimed in the landfills. Therefore, basic physical property and mechanical experiments for bottom ash were conducted in this study to evaluate the possibility of incineration bottom ash as an alternative construction materials. Bottom ashes from three different landfills with two different incineration methods were tested. Incineration methods are Stoker type Incinerator and Pyrolysis-Melting Treatment. Bottom ash can be used as an alternative granular material for construction based on the basic physical property and mechanical characteristics similar to those of sandy materials. However, the incineration method should be considered since it can affect the material and mechanical characteristics of the incineration bottom ash.

Preparation and properties of potential CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) precursors for the TiO2, a major component of the perovskite materials such as PT, PLT, PZT, and PLZT were investigated. Reactions between β-diketones and TiMe3, formed in situ failed to produce stable Ti(β-diketonate)3 complexes but a stable purple solid, characterized as (OTi(BPP)2)2 (BPP=1,3-biphenyl-1,3-propanedione) was obtained when BPP was used. Several new Ti(Oi-Pr)2(β-diketonate)2 complexes with aromatic or ring substituents were synthesized by the substitution reaction of Ti(OiPr)4by β-diketones and characterized with 1H NMR, IR, ICP, and TGA. Solid complexes such as Ti(Oi-Pr)2(BAC)2 (BAC=1.-phenyl-2,4-pentanedione), Ti(Oi-Pr)2(BPP)2, Ti(Oi-Pr)2(1-HAN)2 (1-HAN=2-hydroxy-1-acetonaphthone), Ti(Oi-Pr)2(2-HAN)2 (2-HAN=1-hydroxy-2-acetonaphthone), Ti(Oi-Pr)2(ACCP)2 (ACCP=2-acetylcyclopentanone), and Ti(Oi-Pr)2(HBP)2 (HBP=2-hydroxybenzophenone) were found to be stable toward moisture and air. Ti(Oi-Pr)2(ACCP)2 and Ti(Oi-Pr)2(HBP)2 were proved to have lower melting points and higher decomposition temperatures. However, these complexes are thermally stable and pyrolysis under an inert atmosphere resulted in incomplete decomposition. Ti(Oi-Pr)2(DPM)2 (DPM=dipivaloylmethane) and Ti(Oi-Pr)2(HFAA)2 (HFAA=hexafluoroacetylacetone) were sublimed substantially during the thermal decomposition. Pyrolysis mechanism of these complexes are dependent on type of β-diketone but removal of Oi-Pr ligands occurs before the decomposition of β-diketonate ligands.

Ceramic fiber separator is the promising material for thermal battery system because it reduces the production cost and offers the potential to a new application compared to a pellet type electrolyte. The electrolyte separator for thermal battery should be easily handled and loaded a large amount of the molten lithium salt. Ceramic fibers were used as an electrolyte separator and the lithium based molten salts were infiltrated into the ceramic filters. Leakage of molten salt (several lithium salts) leads to short-circuit during the thermal battery operation. In this study, a uniform and fine SiOC mat with fibers ranging from 1 to 3 ${\mu}m$ was obtained by electrospinning of polycarbosilane and pyrolysis. The optimum spinning conditions for obtaining fine diameters of SiOC fiber were controlled by the solution composition and concentration, applied voltage and spinning rate, release rate by porosity. The pore structures of the ceramic filter and the melting properties of the lithium salts affected to the electrolyte loading and leakage. The importance of the fiber size and porosity and their control was discussed and the mechanical properties were also discussed.

As a basic research fur the separation of effective components included in pyrolysis gas oil, the crystallization on each system of naphthalene with 2-methylnaphthalene, indene and 1-methylnaphthalene as impurity has been carried out in column and cold-finger type crystallizer, respectively. In crystallization operation, the purity of naphthalene has been a tendency of increase with decreasing of cooling rate and in the presence of impurity with lower melting point. In comparison of crystallizer types, naphthalene purity in column type crystallizer was a higher value than that in cold-finger type due to effective sweating operation after crystallization.

Fluoropolymer of PTFE and PFA etc. is a heat resistance polymeric material that it is known as that maximum continuous use temperature reaches for 260 $^{\circ}C$. It was observed that these polymers had the enough thermal stability so enough that it was kept by thermal aging of 280 $^{\circ}C$/7 weeks too in this study. However, such thermal stability means that bulk material property is kept such as mechanical strength, melting point and initial pyrolysis temperature etc. If these polymers are evaluate by coating property such as surface contact angle, surface morphology, surface scratch, thing that heat resistance is not enough was confirmed in this study. Thermal aging of flouropolymer coating was achieved by gear aging oven that the exchange rate of air was controlled, and the analysis results were indicating serious damage of surface morphology and adhesive strength on metal substrate.
