RHDS 촉매는 코크와 황 화합물 그리고 금속인 바나듐이 표면에 침적되어 비활성화가 된다. 이러한 오염물을 제거하기 위해서 먼저 폐 RHDS 촉매에 묻어있는 중질유분의 세정, 코크와 황 화합물을 고온 배소 처리한 후, 과량으로 침적되어 있는 바나듐의 침출량을 조절하기 위하여 0.5, 1 wt% 옥살산 수용액을 이용하여 초음파 교반기에서 50 ℃, 10 sec 동안 교반하여 NOx 저감을 위한 SCR 촉매로의 적용 가능성을 확인하고자 하였다. 재생처리 한 RHDS 촉매의 성분은 XRF 를 사용하여 분석하였고, 상압 고정층 연속 흐름 반응기 상에서 NOx 저감 성능을 측정하였다. 옥살산 수용액 0.5 wt%, 10 sec 동안 초음파 침출한 촉매가 가장 안정적인 NOx 저감 성능을 보였으며, 375 ℃ 이상의 고온에서는 상용 촉매와 동등 수준의 NOx 저감 성능을 확인할 수 있었으나 저온영역 200 ℃에서 250 ℃까지는 상용 촉매보다 낮은 NOx 저감 성능을 보였다. 따라서 폐 RHDS 촉매를 재생처리 한 후 분말로 메탈 코로게이트 지지체에 워시코팅한 촉매는 상용 SCR 촉매로서 이용 가능함을 확인하였다.

The recycling rate of recovered paper in Korea is the highest in the world, 92%, but remanufacturing yield is low due to the extremely poor quality of the paper. The poor quality, in turn, influences to the reject amount in deinking process. To increase the yield of old newspaper recycling process, hydrophobic degree of inorganic pigments of deinking stock must be reduced. To determine the hydrophobicity, Pitch Potential Deposit Tester (PDT) was newly designed and applied with respect to the SB latex property of various quality used in Korea; its hydrophobic degree according to Tg, gel content, charge and particle size of latex and optimum designing condition of SB latex. And below are the conclusions: 1. The reason of excessive reject from old newspaper deinking process for total amount of printed ink is loss of inorganic pigments. When lipase, a biochemical catalyst, was applied with the purpose of preventing inorganic pigments loss about more than 70% of total reject weight and promoting hydration of pulp for deinking, deinking process yield of pre flotation secondary stage increased remarkably without any changes of deinking efficiency. 2. Lipase improved deinking stock by cutting ester linkage on surface of hydrophobic materials to promote its hydration. From this, it reached the conclusion that hydration degree of stock exercises significant effect on flotation deinking process yield. 3. Inorganic alkali promotes hydration of deinking stock. But there have been needs for more fundamental measures other than inorganic alkali of promoting hydration for yield improvement. For this, this study intended to find out reasons of chemical properties change on surface of hydrophobic material by change of pH. 4. Pitch Deposit Test (PDT) was performed for understanding principle of why surface of coating flake from OMG is hydrophobic and why it becomes hydrophilic when pH of stock is alkaline. As a result of this test, it is determined that swelling property by change of pH of latex film, which were used as coating adhesive is the reason for hydrophobic change. 5. Hydrophilicity of coating flake increased with hydrophilic pigments. And as more of SB Latex adhesive was used and higher of calcium hardness of stock became, its hydrophilicity decreased. SB Latex adhesive film is reformed by mechanical friction. For having hydrophilicity under neutral pH, strong bruising action such as kneading is required. 6. Because swelling of adhesive film decreases as Tg of SB latex gets lower and mean diameter gets smaller, it shows hydrophobicity under neutral pH. This lowers hydrophilicity of coating flake, which leads to easy elimination with flotation reject on DIP process. Therefore, for improving future flotation yield, it is necessary to develop to use eco-friendly clean SB latex by raising Tg and increasing mean diameter for recycling, and as a result, to reduce excessive loss of coating flake as a reject from deinking process.

Tungsten carbide is widely used in carbide tools. However, its production process generates a significant number of end-of-life products and by-products. Therefore, it is necessary to develop efficient recycling methods and investigate the remanufacturing of tungsten carbide using recycled materials. Herein, we have recovered 99.9% of the tungsten in cemented carbide hard scrap as tungsten oxide via an alkali leaching process. Subsequently, using the recovered tungsten oxide as a starting material, tungsten carbide has been produced by employing a self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) method. SHS is advantageous as it reduces the reaction time and is energy-efficient. Tungsten carbide with a carbon content of 6.18 wt % and a particle size of 116 nm has been successfully synthesized by optimizing the SHS process parameters, pulverization, and mixing. In this study, a series of processes for the high-efficiency recycling and quality improvement of tungsten-based materials have been developed.
