Platinum group metals (pgm) are useful to many industries such as chemical, dental and medical, petroleum, refining, electrical and electronic, and automotive. Researchers at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology and PGM Recovery Ltd. have developed jointly an environmentally sound and metallurgically efficient process for extracting these metals from secondary sources. Once these metals have been dissolved in the leach liquor, the individual metals mainly platinum, palladium, and rhodium, should be separated in order to recover the individual metals with high purity. During this investigation, solvent extraction has been chosen as the method used to achieve the separation and extraction of platinum, palladium, and rhodium from the leach liquor. There were three solutions used throughout this procedure: 1) Synthetic solution (200 ppm Pt 80 ppm Pd 20 ppm Rh; 300 ppm Pt, 180 ppm Pd 50 ppm Rh), and 2) Auto catalyst leach liquors (100 ppm Pt, 30 ppm Pd, 20 ppm Rh). The solvents investigated included Lix 84(2-hydroxy-5-nonylacetonphenone oxime in a mixture with 5-dodecylsalicyloxime), Lix 84-I, ACORGA CLX-50 (diester of pyridine 3,5 dicarboxylic acid), and di-hexyl sulfide. The extraction values achieved using ACORGA CLX-50, Lix 84, and Lix 84-I were respectively Pt (25%, 0% 0%), Pd (100%, 99.8%, 95.3%), and Rh (99.1%, 35.5%, 4.25%). The stripping processes for the Lix 84, and Lix 84-I were proven to be more involved than others. The solutions were required to be simultaneously heated and stirred. The percentages acquired through these processes yielded unsatisfactory results. The stripping procedure for the ACORGA CLX-50 was easier to execute, yet the percentage recovered from this process was also unsatisfactory. Overall the di-hexyl sulfide has proved to be the most successful organic for this procedure. The average percent extracted for palladium was excellent with 99.9% - 100% with very little Platinum and rhodium extracted. The ability of stripping palladium in ammonia solution was also found to be excellent.

디젤은 높은 volumetric density$[VD,\;kg\;H_2/m^3]\;(>100)$와 gravimetric density$(GD,\;\%\;H_2)\;(>17)$를 가지는 우수한 수소저장매체 중의 하나이다. (Liquid Hydrogen의 경우 VD와 GD가 각각 50, 18 정도) 본 연구는 이러한 디젤연료의 개질에 적합한 촉매선정 및 반응특성에 관한 연구를 실시하였다 촉매는 자체 선정한 3가지 촉매(NECS-1, NECS-2, NECS-3)와 2가지 상용촉매(FCR-HCl4, FCR-HC35. Sud-Chemie, Inc)에 대하여 조사하였다. 실험결과 NECS-1이 디젤개질에 가장 적합한 것으로 판단되었다. 이와 함께 촉매 층의 길이에 따른 온도 및 농도를 분석하였으며, 디젤개질을 위한 연료의 delivery 문제로 인한 촉매 층 내의 급격한 온도 변화특성을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 촉매 층 상단부에서 발생한 발열량을 하단부의 흡열부에 효과적으로 전달하는 것이 ATR(Autothermal Reforming) 반응 특성에 깊게 연관되어 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Health is an outset of psychological, social, financial, and physical state. Several macroeconomic factors are entangled with health and mortality. Infant mortality and life expectancy are two keyguard on demographic research context on last few decades. On the other hand, foreign inflows play an unprecedent role for raising economic circulation and providing more opportunities to build a better society. The study aims to investigate the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI), economic growth, and Bangladesh's health. This study employs time-series data from 1980 to 2018. Results show, with Auto-regressive Distribute Lag (ARDL) model, that there is significant cointegration among variables. Foreign investment and economic output relate significantly and positively to health. On the contrary, education is quasi-linked with a different sign-on different model. For model validation, pitfalls of time-series multicollinearity, heteroscedasiticy, and autocorrelation are not present. Also, CUSUM and CUSUMSQ tests are validating the model as stable and fit for future prediction. Medical assessment and education need more attention from the government as well as the private sector. FDI can play a catalyst role for improving the health sector, raising opportunity in educating and creating a better lifestyle. In order to optimize foreign investment, the government should implement necessary reforms and policies.

IMO MEPC에서는 해양환경 보호를 위해서 선박으로부터 배출되는 배기가스 규제를 날로 점점 강화하고 있다. 특히, 2016년부터 건조되어 국제항해를 하는 모든 신조 선박에 대한 질소산화물(NOx) 배출량은 Tier-III 규제를 만족하게 되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 선박용으로 개발된 NOx 저감용 SCR(선택적 환원 촉매) 시스템을 기존 선박의 디젤발전기에 설치하여 NOx 저감성능을 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구를 위하여 목포해양대학교 실습선 새누리호 디젤발전기의 배기 파이프라인을 개조 공사하여 요소 SCR 시스템을 설치하였으며, 요소 용액(40%) 분사 방법은 수동 모드와 PLC를 통한 자동 모드로 나누어 두 가지 방법으로 실험을 하였다. 수동 모드 방법을 통하여 암모니아 슬립 발생구간을 찾을 수 있었으며, 엔진부하별(25, 35 및 50%)로 최적의 요소 분사량을 조절할 수 있었다. 부하를 Down-Up(25%에서 50%로 올리면서) 시보다도 Up-Down(50%에서 25%로 내리면서) 시에 NOx 저감성능이 더 좋음을 알 수 있었으며, 본 바나듐계 촉매가 사용된 SCR 시스템을 기존 선박의 디젤발전기에 설치하여 질소산화물이 80% 이상 절감됨을 확인할 수 있었다.
