This study has been focused on the partial oxidation(POX) of n-octane over Rh-containing catalysts supported on alumina. The catalysts for this reaction were prepared by incipient wetness(IW) and co-gel(CG) methods, followed by the calcination at $900{\circ}C$ or $1,200{\circ}C$. When applied to the POX of n-octane carried out at $600{\circ}C$ with C/O=3 and GHSV=3,450/h, the catalyst prepared by the CG method and calcined at $1,200{\circ}C$ showed the best activity, yielding 42% syngas($H_2$+CO) with the $H_2$/CO ratio of $2{\sim}2.4$. To enhance the activity and stability of catalysts, bimetallic catalysts were synthesized by the CG method. As a result, the performance of Rh-Ni/$Al_2O_3$ catalyst was superior to that of Rh/$Al_2O_3$ catalyst in terms of the catalyst stability, due to the retarding effect on the Rh-to-$Rh_2O_3$ transition by the addition of Ni. This result was confirmed by XRD, TEM, and TPR characterizations.

Hydrogenolysis reactions of CFC-113a catalyzed by various heterogeneous catalysts $(Rh/Al_2O_3,\;Pd/C,\;Ni,\;Al_2O_3,\;Active\;carbon)$ were investigated in the liquid and gas phases. In the liquid phase reaction, different catalysts showed different activities, but all catalysts used gave high selectivities toward HCFC-123 over 95%. It was noticeable that the neutral $Al_2O_3$ showed both a high activity and a selectivity in the liquid phase reaction. In the gas phase reaction, transition metals on carbon(Pd/C, Pt/C) were so active for hydrogenolysis of CFC-113a that they even catalyzed the production reaction of overhydrogenated compounds such as $HCFC-133a(CF_3CH_2Cl)\;and\;HFC-143a(CF_3CH_3)$. $Al_2O_3$, which showed the high activity in the liquid phase reaction, did not show a remarkable activity. When $Al_2O_3$ was used in the liquid phase reaction, the hydrogenolysis of CFC-113a proceeded without any side products in THF. However, the same reaction in MeOH produced side products, such as $CH_3OCH_3\;and\;CH_3CH_2OCH_3$ from solvent. Based on this result, including heterogeneous catalysts, it was concluded that the solvent played an important role in the liquid phase reaction.

Environmental pollution remains a considerable health risk source all over the world; however, hazards are usually higher in developing countries. Iraq has long been suffering from the problem of pollution and how to treat pollution. Photocatalytic degradation has turned out to be most productive process for dye degradation. In this investigation, Rhodamine B (RhB), dye has been selected for degradation under visible light illumination. To address this issue, we fabricate erbium trioxide nanoparticles (Er₂O₃/NPs). Erbium trioxide nanoparticles are prepared and utilized for photo-catalytic degradation. The characterization of Er₂O₃/NPs is described and confirmed by utilizing of XRD (X-ray diffraction) and SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy). The average size of Er₂O₃ nanoparticles is observed to be 16.00 nm. Er₂O₃/NPs is investigated for its ability of photo-catalytic degradation through certain selected parameters such as concentration and time. The methodological results show that the synthesized Er₂O₃/NPs is a good photo-catalytic for Rhodamine degradation.

$TiO_2$ thin films are fabricated using R.F.sputtering method. $TiO_2$ thin films are coated on $Al_2O_3$ substrate printed IDE(interdigitated electrode). Impedance of thin films decreases according to increase relative humidity and it increases according to decrease measuring frequency. When substrate temperature is room temperature, impedance of thin films is from 45.68[MHz] to 37.76[MHz] within the limits from 30[%RH] to 75[%RH] at 1[kHz]. Whereas when substrate temperature is 100[$^{\circ}C$], impedance of thin films is from 692[kHz] to 539[kHz] within the limits from 30[%RH] to 75[%RH] at 1[kHz]. Impedance variation of thin films is bigger in low frequency regions than in high frequency regions. When substrate temperature is 100[$^{\circ}C$], impedance of thin films is lower than that of room temperature.

Experiments have been conducted to investigate the characteristics of formaldehyde and nitrous oxide formation from the catalytic reaction of methane. Catalysts used in the experiment were Pd. Pd/Pt/Rh loaded on ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ and ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3-La_2O_3$ monolith. In the catalytic reaction of methane. as the concentration of NO, $O_2$ and $CH_4$ increased, the formaldehyde emission was increased. The concentration of $N_2O$ increased as NO and CO increased. It was also found that the formaldehyde emission was produced by the gas reaction of methane in high temperature above 950K.

Diesel particulate filter (DPF) systems are being used to reduce the particulate matter emission of diesel vehicles. The DPF should be regenerated after certain driving hours or distance to eliminate soot in the filter. The most widely used method is active regeneration with oxygen at $550{\sim}650^{\circ}C$. Syngas (synthetic gas) can be used to lower the regeneration temperature of Catalyzed DPF (CDPF). The syngas is formed by fuel reforming process of CPOx (Catalytic Partial Oxidation) at specific engine condition (1500rpm, 2bar) using 1wt.% $Rh/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ catalyst. The oxidation characteristics of PM with syngas supplied to filter were studied using partial flow system that can control temperature and flow rate independently. The filter is coated with washcoat loading of $25g/ft^3$ $Pt/Al_2O_3-CeO_2$, and multi-channel CDPF (MC-CDPF) was used. The filter regeneration experiments were performed to investigate the effect of syngas exothermic reaction on soot oxidation in the filter. For this purpose, before oxidation experiment, PM was collected about 8g/L to the filter at engine condition of 1500rpm, bmep 8bar and flow temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ Various conditions of temperature and concentration of syngas were used for the tests. Regeneration of filter started at 2% $H_2$ and CO concentration respectively and inlet temperature of $260^{\circ}C$. Filter Regeneration occurs more actively as the syngas concentration becomes higher.

Most of LNT catalysts use noble metals such as Pt for low temperature NO_x oxidation but there is an economic weakness. For the purpose of overcoming this, this study is to develop DeNO_x catalyst for LNT excluding PGM (platinum group metal) such as Pt, Pd, Rh, etc. To do so, Al/Co/Ni catalyst selected as a preliminary test is used to study fundamental property and NO_x’s conversion according to calcined temperature. Ultimately, that is, Al/Co/Ni mixed metal oxide which does not use PGM is selected and physicochemical characterization is performed by way of XRD, EDS, SEM, BET and ramp test and NO_x conversion is also analyzed. This study shows that all samples consist of mixed oxides of spinel structure of Co₂AlO₄ and NiAl₂O₄ and have enough pore volume and size for redox. But as a result of NH₃-TPD test, it is desired that calcined temperature needs to be maintained at 700 ℃ or lower. Also only samples which are processed under 500 ℃ satisfied NO and NO_x conversion simultaneously through ramp test. Based on this study’s results, optimum calcined temperature for Al/Co/Ni=1.0/2.5/0.3 mixed metal oxide catalyst is 500 ℃.

Due to environmental pollution, hazards of the human body, and global warning, changes in the power train of automobiles are intensifying, and the market forelectronic vehicles is rising. Also, in order to meet the stricter emission regulations forautomobiles with internal combustion engines based on fossil fuel, the proportion of after-treatments for vehicles and vessels is increasing gradually. The objective of this study is to investigate the effectsfrom additive ceric oxide ($CeO_2$) loading amounts to improve the methane ($CH_4$) and nitric oxide (NOx) abatement ability of the natural gas oxidation catalysts(NGOC) reducing toxic gases emitted from compressed natural gas (CNG) buses. Three kinds of NGOC were prepared under the following conditions: fresh and $700^{\circ}C$ for 12hr thermal aging, and the reduction performance of toxic gases was evaluated. Fresh $1Pt-3Pd-1Rh-3MgO-6CeO_2/(Al+Z)$ NGOC containing 6wt% $CeO_2$ had the highest dispersivity of palladium (Pd) with high selectivity to $CH_4$ and improved harmful gas reduction performance. The NGOC with 6wt% $CeO_2$ loaded the least decreased in the dispersivity of the noble metal, and showed the highest reduction of harmful gases due to the thermal durability of $CeO_2$.
