To produce activated carbon fibers, the process is carried out through either physical activation method or chemical activation method. In this study, we present the results regarding the characteristics of activated carbon fibers manufactured under various conditions through the quantitative control of steam. The yield after activation indicates a decreasing trend with the increase in steam quantity and activation time. Additionally, specific surface area characteristics exhibit variations based on activation time and steam flow rate. The SEM analysis results reveal that higher steam flow rates lead to the presence of both mesopores and macropores on the surface of activated carbon fibers (ACF).

Objective: This study aims to investigate early childhood teachers' perception of STEAM and suggest activation measures for STEAM according to teachers' background variables. Methods: The researchers conducted a pilot study, and then did survey research for 5 weeks. The participants of this study included 523 teachers of early childhood education institutions in Gwangju metropolitan city and Jeollanam-do Province. Results: The results of this study were as follows. First, early childhood teachers perceived the necessity of STEAM differently according to their age, experience, and academic background. The higher their age, experience, and academic background were, the more they wanted to participate in further teacher training and education. In particular, early childhood teachers' perception and activation measures were very different according to their workplace. These results come from the fact that the conditions in conducting STEAM are different according to their workplace. Conclusion/Implications: In order to activate STEAM, a teacher training program including practical contents and methods should be conducted. Also, it is necessary to carefully organize the content and structure of the teacher training program according to their workplace. This study is meaningful in terms of suggesting activation measures for STEAM by showing how early childhood teachers think about STEAM and what they demand.

현재 슬러지의 처리는 주로 해양투기에 의해 진행되는데 런던협약에 의해 슬러지 내 중금속 함량에 따라 점진적으로 해양투기가 완전 금지되어진다. 이에 하수슬러지의 안정적 처리 방안이 시급히 검토되어야 한다. 그 대책으로 최근 슬러지의 능률적이고 친환경적인 처리를 위한 방법 중 하나로 활성화를 통한 흡착제 제조가 부각되고 있다. 본 연구는 하수슬러지를 수증기 활성화법을 이용하여 흡착제로 활용하기 위한 기초연구로서 양질의 흡착제를 제조하기 위한 변수별 연구를 통한 최적 활성화조건을 연구하였다. 그 결과 요오드 흡착능을 기준으로 하여 변수별 연구를 통해 수증기 주입량 30 mL/hr, 활성화 온도 $500^{\circ}C$, 활성화 시간 60분으로 선정되었다. 이 때 요오드 흡착능과 수율은 228.4 mg/g, 77.23%로 나타났다. 또한 질소 흡착, SEM, EDS를 이용하여 수증기 활성화에 따른 세공 발달, 비표면적, 평균 세공경 및 화학적 성상과 함량을 파악하였다. 수증기 활성화를 통해 발달되는 세공은 주로 미세 세공임을 확인하였다.

Short pitch fibers were prepared from petroleum based isotropic precursor pitch by melt-blown technology. The pitch fibers were stabilized in oxidizing condition, followed by steam activations at various conditions. The fiber surface and pore structures of the activated carbon fibers (ACFs) were respectively characterized by using SEM and applying BET theory from nitrogen adsorption at 77 K. The weight loss of the oxidized fiber was proportional to activation temperature and activation time, independently. The adsorption isotherms of the nitrogen on the ACFs were constructed and analyzed to be as Type I consisting of micropores mainly. The specific surface area of the ACFs proportionally increased with the weight loss at a given activation temperature. The specific surface area was ranged 850~1900 $m^2/g$ with pores of narrow distribution in sizes. The average pore size was ranged 5.8~14.1 ${\AA}$ with the larger value from the more severe activation condition.

소나무 수피로 부터 수증기 활성화 의하여 활성탄을 제조하였으며, 제조된 활성탄은 세공 구조 및 표면적에 대한 검토를 행하였다. 활성화를 위하여 3종류의 서로 다른 형태의 로(정치식 수직, 수평로 및 회전식 수평로)가 본 실험에 사용되었다. 정치식 수직 및 수평로를 이용하여 수피를 탄화시키고 이를 수증기 활성화시키면, 1,000 ㎡／g이상의 높은 비표면적을 얻기는 어려웠다. 분말상태의 시료를 사용하면 비표면적이 약간 향상되었지만, 여전히 정치식 로의 경우 높은 비표면적의 결과를 얻기는 어려웠다. 로타리식 수평로에서 수피를 수증기 활성화시키면, 시판 1급 활성탄과 유사한 1,000 ㎡／g 이상의 비표면적을 나타내는 활성탄을 제조할 수 있었다. 로타리식 수평로에서 제조된 활성탄은 미세공에서 중세공까지 다양한 공극 분포를 나타내었다.

The formation of methanol directly from methane and steam was observed over Cu ion-exchanged mordenite. Furthermore, the continuous production of methanol was achieved by co-feeding methane and steam over Cumordenite. The methanol production rate was comparable to that reported in the stepwise process in which activation, methane reaction, and extraction of methanol were carried out separately.

The activated carbon was produced from Sancheong bamboo by steam and carbon dioxide gas activation methods. The carbonization of raw material was conducted at 90$0^{\circ}C$ and gas activation reactions were conducted with respect to various conditions. -activation temperature 750-90$0^{\circ}C$, the flow rate of steam 0.5-2g-$H_2O$/g-char$.$hr, the flow rate of carbon dioxide 5-30$m\ell$-$CO_2$/g-char-min and activation time 1-5 hr. The prepared activated carbons were measured yield, the adsorption capacity of iodine and methylene blue, BET specific surface area and pore size distribution. The adsorption capacity of iodine (680.5-1526.1 mg/g) and methylene blue (18.3-221.5 mg/g) increased with creasing activation temperature and activation time. The adsorption capacity of iodine and methylene blue increased with the activation gas quantity in the range of 0.5-1.5g-$H_2O$/g-charㆍhr, 5-18.9$m\ell$-Co$_2$/g-charㆍmin. But those decreased over those range due to the pore shrinkage. The steam activation method was superior in efficiency to carbon dioxide activation method.

Activated carbons are well known as adsorbents for gases and vapors. Micro porous carbons are used for the sorption/separation of light gases, whereas, carbon with bigger pore size are applied for removal of large molecules. Therefore, the control of pore size of activated carbon plays a vital role for their use in specific applications. In the present work, steam activation parameters have been varied to control pore size of the resulting activated carbon. It was found that flow rate of steam has profound effect on both surface characteristic and surface morphology. The flow rate of steam was optimized to retain monolith structure as well as higher surface area.

Poly(vinylidene chloride) (PVDC)-derived nanoporous carbons were prepared by various activation methods: heat-treatment under an inert atmosphere, steam activation, and potassium hydroxide (KOH) activation at 873, 1073, and 1273 K. The pore structures of PVDC-derived nanoporous carbons were characterized by the $N_2$ adsorption technique at 77 K. Heat treatment in an inert atmosphere increased the specific surface area and micropore volume with elevating temperature, while the average micropore width near 0.65 nm was not significantly changed, reflecting the characteristic pore structure of ultramicroporous carbon. Steam activation for PVDC at 873 and 1073 K also yielded ultramicroporosity. On the other hand, the steam activated sample at 1273 K had a wider average micropore width of 1.48 nm, correlating with a supermicropore. The KOH activation increased the micropore volume with elevating temperature, which is accompanied by enlargement of the average micropore width from 0.67 to 1.12 nm. The average pore widths of KOH-activated samples were strongly governed by the activation temperature. We expect that these approaches can be utilized to simply control the porosity of PVDC-derived nanoporous carbons.

야자각탄으로부터 수증법을 이용하여 활성탄을 제조하였다. 활성화 온도와 시간, 수증기의 농도와 양이 n-butane 흡착특성에 미치는 영향을 비표면적, 기공분석, n-butane 흡착량을 측정함으로서 분석하였다. 90$0^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 활성화한 경우 온도와 시간이 증가하거나 수증기의 농도와 양이 많을수록 n-butane 흡착량은 증가하였으나 95$0^{\circ}C$에 이르면 이러한 경향은 나타나지 않았다. $900^{\circ}C$, 185분간 활성화한 시료는 비표면적 978 $\textrm{m}^2$/g, 평균기공 크기 9.3 $\AA$, n-butane 흡착랑이 5.9 g/100 ml이었다.
