Upgrading of pyrolysis wax oil has been conducted in a continuous fixed bed reactor at $450^{\circ}C$, 1hour, LHSV 3.5/h. The catalytic degradation using HZSM-5 catalyst are compared with the thermal degradation and also was studied with a function of experimental variables. The raw pyrolysis wax oil shows relatively high boiling point distribution ranging from around $300^{\circ}C$ to $550^{\circ}C$, which has considerably higher boiling point distribution than that of commercial diesel. The product characteristic from thermal degradation shows a similar trend with that of raw pyrolysis wax oil. This means the thermal degradation of pyrolysis wax oil at high degradation temperature is not sufficiently occurred. On the other hand, the catalytic degradation using HZSM-5 catalyst relative to the thermal degradation shows the high conversion of pyrolysis wax oil to light hydrocarbons. This liquid product shows high gasoline range fraction as around 90% fraction and considerably high aromatic fraction in liquid product. Also, in the catalytic degradation the experimental variable such as catalyst amount and reaction temperature was studied.

Dry reforming of methane to synthesis gas was investigated over a series of Ni/HY catalysts promoted by Mg, Ca, K and Mn. These catalysts were characterized by XRD, BET, SEM, and TGA analyses before and after the reaction. Conversions and product yields were increased with increasing nickel loading up to 13 wt%. Among the catalysts tested in this work, the Ni-Mg/HY catalyst showed the highest carbon resistance and the most stable catalytic performance. It was revealed that the addition of Mg promoter reduced the nickel particle size and produced the highly dispersed nickel particles, and consequently, retarded the catalyst deactivation.

We have studied the reforming of carbon dioxide with methane over various supported nickel catalysts. The nickel supported on natural zeolite showed the highest activity and the nickel on acidic support showed higher activity and slow deactivation compared to nickel on basic support. The activity of nickel on natural zeolite increased with increasing loading ratio and showed almost constant activity above 10wt.% loading of nickel. The conversion and yield of products were affected by the mole ratio of reactants and the highest yields of CO and $H_2$ were obtained at $CH_4/CO_2=1$. The deactivation of catalyst was caused by deposition of coke which was formed by the decomposition of methane. The shape of coke was shown to be whisker tripe carbon, and it brought out the slow deactivation of catalyst.

Rice straw is one of the main renewable energy sources in Korea. Bio-oil is produced from rice straw with a bench-scale equipment mainly with a fluidized bed, a char removal system and zeolite catalyst. It was investigated how the zeolite catalyst affected the production of bio-oil and chemical composition of bio-oil. Compared with non catalytic pyrolysis, the catalytic pyrolysis increased the amount of gas and char but decreased the amount of oil. The water content in bio-oil increased due to deoxygenation. The aromatic compound and heating value was increased when catalytic pyrolysis was applied.u

Catalytic dissociation reaction was studied in order to transform waste plastics to oil by using noble metal supported catalysts. XRD, SEM, and GC/MSD analysis were performed to find the crystalline structure and shape, and product distribution. Generally, dissociation reaction occurs at low temperature compared to pyrolysis. Dissociation reaction has advantage of gasoline yield with respect to pyrolysis which products mainly $C_1\simC_4$. The result of dissociation reaction, gasoline was obtained much as a product. $C_5\simC_{11}$ compounds were produced as a gasoline product on Pt-zeolite among noble metal catalysts at $340^{\circ}C$. The conversion of dissociation reaction of waste plastics on the prepared catalyst was above 70% over $340^{\circ}C$.

The synthesis of dimethyl carbonate by liquid phase oxidative carbonylation of methanol was studied under batch reaction system. Reaction factors such as effect on various metals, anion containing in copper catalyst, temperature, carbon monoxide and oxygen molar ratio and copper content were investigated. In particular $CuCl_2{\cdot}2H_2O$ showed the excellent of the methanol conversion 65.2%, DMC selectivity 96.6% reaction condition under 1.0 g, $150^{\circ}C$, MeOH/CO/$O_2$=0.2/0.215/0.05 (molar ratio). $CuCl_2$ led to corrosion of the reactor. Thus, a new catalyst system using supports was investigated to resolve these corrosion problem. Influence on various supports were examined and copper catalyst supported on zeolite Y showed the most excellent activity on the formation of dimethyl carbonate. The amount of Fe dissolved during the reaction using ICP-AES (Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometer) was compared with catalysts, calcined Cu/zeolite Y showed the lower value below 5% than $CuCl_2-2H_2O$.

Polycarbosilane was synthesized by the Kumada rearrangement of polydimethylsilane in the presence of zeolite (ZSM-5) as a catalyst at $350^{\circ}C$. The prepared polycarbosilane had very low molecular weight ($M_w=500$), so that it was not suitable to fabricate SiC fiber by melt spinning. Further polymerization of PCS was conducted around $400^{\circ}C$ to obtain spinnable polycarbosilane. After polymerization, the polycarbosilanes were isolated by distillation according to the molecular weight distributions. The PCS with a controlled molecular weight distribution was spun into continuous polycarbosilane green fibers. The PCS green fiber was successfully transformed into silicon oxycarbide fiber. The room temperature strength of the SiC fiber was around 1.5 - 1.8 GPa. The oxidation behavior and the tensile strength after oxidation were also evaluated.

이 논문에서는 디젤자동차용 LNT와 SCR 촉매의 NO, $NH_3$ 흡착 및 탈리의 기본 특성과 수열화 온도와 시간 및 정량화된 황피독 농도에 대한 de-$NO_x$ 촉매의 내구성을 평가하였다. LNT 촉매는 열적으로 열화됨에 따라 Pt 및 Ba의 소결 및 응집으로 활성이 떨어져 $NO_x$ 전환율은 감소하였다. 반면에 Pt의 비활성화로 중간생성물인 $NH_3$ 생성량은 증가하였으며, 이때 생성된 $NH_3$는 LNT+SCR 복합시스템의 SCR 촉매의 환원제 역할을 담당한다. 1.0 g/L 이상의 황이 피독된 LNT 촉매는 탈황을 하여도 질소 산화물 흡장물질(Ba) 의 성능이 회복이 되지 않아 $NO_x$ 전환율은 회복되지 않았으며, 탈황 후 Pt 재활성화로 인해 NO2 및 SCR 환원제인 $NH_3$ 생성량은 증가하였다. SCR 촉매의 $NO_x$ 전환율은 $700^{\circ}C$ 36h, $800^{\circ}C$ 24h로 수열화 시킨 촉매는 전이금속 입자 성장 및 zeolite 구조 파괴로 인하여 급격하게 떨어졌으며, 0.36 g/L 황 피독된 촉매는 zeolite가 가지는 강산성 특정으로 내피독성이 강하여 탈황시 $NO_x$ 전환율은 회복되었다.

The adsorption characteristics of four pesticides (phosphamidon, fenitrothion, triadimefon, and diniconazole) on natural clinoptilolite (CLI_N) and three synthetic zeolites were investigated. The synthetic zeolites included faujasite (FAU_F) synthesized from coal fly ash; the mixture of FAU and Na-P1 (FAU + Na-P1)_SF synthesized using Jeju scoria and coal fly ash at the ratio of 1.5 by weight; and waste fluid catalytic cracking catalyst (FCC_W). The distribution coefficient, K_D and the Freundlich constant, K_F decreased in the following sequence: FCC_W > FAU_F > (FAU + Na-P1)_SF > CLI_N among the zeolites and diniconazole>fenitrothion> triadimefon> phosphamidon among the pesticides. The pesticide adsorptivity increased with increasing temperature for FAU_F, (FAU+Na-P1)_SF and FCC_W, however, it decreased for CLI_N, regardless of the type of pesticide. The adsorptivity of pesticides was independent of pH for phosphamidon, fenitrothion and triadimefon, whereas it decreased with increasing pH for diniconazole, regardless of zeolite type.

Direct catalysis of vapors from vacuum pyrolysis of biomass was performed on MCM-41 to investigate the effects of operating parameters including catalyzing temperature, catalyzing bed height and system pressure on the organic yields. Optimization of organic phase yield was further conducted by employing response surface methodology. The statistical analysis showed that operating parameters have significant effects on the organic phase yield. The organic phase yield first increases and then decreases as catalyzing temperature and catalyzing bed height increase, and decreases as system pressure increases. The optimal conditions for the maximum organic phase yield were obtained at catalyzing temperature of $502.7^{\circ}C$, catalyzing bed height of 2.74 cm and system pressure of 6.83 kPa, the organic phase yield amounts to 15.84% which is quite close to the predicted value 16.19%. The H/C, O/C molar ratios (dry basis), density, pH value, kinematic viscosity and high heat value of the organic phase obtained at optimal conditions were 1.287, 0.174, $0.98g/cm^3$, 5.12, $5.87mm^2/s$ and 33.08 MJ/kg, respectively. Organic product compositions were examined using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry and the analysis showed that the content of oxygenated aromatics in organic phase had decreased and hydrocarbons had increased, and the hydrocarbons in organic phase were mainly aliphatic hydrocarbons. Besides, thermo-gravimetric analysis of the MCM-41 zeolite was conducted within air atmosphere and the results showed that when the catalyst continuously works over 100 min, the index of physicochemical properties of bio-oil decreases gradually from 1.15 to 0.45, suggesting that the refined bio-oil significantly deteriorates. Meanwhile, the coke deposition of catalyst increases from 4.97% to 14.81%, which suggests that the catalytic activity significantly decreases till the catalyst completely looses its activity.
