Activated carbons were prepared from Korean coal by steam activation in this study. The variation of pore structure of the activated carbons were investigated according to different carbonization temperatures. Yield, surface area, pore volume and pore structure of this activated carbon were compared with those of activated carbon prepared without carbonization. The investigated carbonization temperature ranged from 700${\circ}C$ to 1,000${\circ}C$. Carbonization was carried out in nitrogen atmosphere for 70 minutes and activation was performed by steam at 950${\circ}C$ for 210 minutes. Surface area and pore volume of the resulting activated carbons increased with carbonization temperature. Also pore volume increased by 20% compared to the activated carbon without carbonization. Especially, in mesopore region, the activated carbon carbonized at 900${\circ}C$ had more pores by 60% than that of activated carbon carbonized at other temperature.

In this work, activated carbon nanofiber (ACNF) electrodes with high double-layer capacitance and good rate capability were prepared from polyacrylonitrile nanofibers by optimizing the carbonization temperature prior to $H_2O$ activation. The morphology of the ACNFs was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The elemental composition was determined by analysis of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. $N_2$-adsorption-isotherm characteristics at 77 K were confirmed by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller and Dubinin-Radushkevich equations. ACNFs processed at different carbonization temperatures were applied as electrodes for electrical double-layer capacitors. The experimental results showed that the surface morphology of the CNFs was not significantly changed after the carbonization process, although their diameters gradually decreased with increasing carbonization temperature. It was found that the carbon content in the CNFs could easily be tailored by controlling the carbonization temperature. The specific capacitance of the prepared ACNFs was enhanced by increasing the carbonization temperature.

왕겨를 마이크로파로 탄화하고 그의 탄화속도를 기존의 열적 탄화에 의한 탄화속도와 비교하였다. 왕겨를 $300{\sim}600^{\circ}C$에서 각각 30분 동안 열적 탄화하고 그의 탄화속도를 분석한 결과 탄화온도가 증가할수록 질량감소 및 탄화도(C/H 몰비)가 현저히 증가했지만 왕겨에 마이크로파를 조사하면 입사전력과 조사시간이 증가해도 탄화가 일어나지 않았다. 그러나 $600^{\circ}C$에서 30분 동안 탄화시켜 C/H 몰비가 3.0 이상인 탄화왕겨 6 wt％를 왕겨에 혼합시키고 마이크로파를 조사한 결과 탄화가 잘 되었고 그의 속도식은 마이크로파 입사전력 및 조사시간에 의존하였으며 열적 탄화와 마찬가지로 Arrhenius 식으로 잘 표현되었다. 이때 마이크로파 탄화로 얻어진 활성화에너지는 열적 탄화에 비하여 크게 낮은 반면에 반응속도상수는 훨씬 컸다. 이는 마이크로파 흡수촉진 매체, 즉 촉매적 개시제(initiator)로 사용된 탄화왕겨에 대한 마이크로파 에너지의 내부 부피가열 특성에 기인한 것으로 판단된다. 마이크로파 흡수특성에 대한 왕겨의 회분과 탄화왕겨의 탄화도 및 혼합비율에 대한 영향을 검토하였다.

하수슬러지의 대부분은 생물학적 처리에 의한 미생물에 의해 분해 가능한 유기물질을 다량 함유하고 있는 유기성 폐기물이다. 기존의 하수슬러지 처리방법으로는 건조, 소각, 반탄화 그리고 탄화 등의 기술을 이용하여 감량화 및 연료화를 진행하고 있다. 그러나, 건조를 기반으로 하여 539kcal/kg의 잠열이 소비됨으로 에너지 소비가 높은 단점이 지적되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 열화학적 처리인 수열탄화(HTC)를 통해 고형연료를 생산하고자 한다. 고형연료의 가치를 평가하기 위하여 탄화도 및 연료비의 특성을 분석하였다. 그 결과 수열탄화 반응온도가 증가할수록 탄화도의 상승으로 저위발열량도 약 500kcal/kg 상승하였다. H/C, O/C, Ratio는 1.78, 0.46에서 1.57, 0.32로 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 건조슬러지의 가연분(고정탄소+휘발분) 대비 회분(Ash)의 비율이 0.25 이상으로 나타날 경우는 수열탄화를 진행하여도 탄화도 및 발열량의 증가되지 않는다는 것을 도출하였다.

This paper describes the crystallinity, growth rate, and surface morphology of single crystalline 3C-SiC (cubic silicon carbide) thin films grown with several carbonization conditions such as temperature, $C_3H_8$ flow rate, time. In case of carbonization, an increase in the carbonization temperature caused a increase in the size and numbers of unsealed void (big black spot) which decrease the crystallinity. In addition, optimal $C_3H_8$ flow rate made carbonization layer form well and prevented the formation of voids. Also, after a period of time, the growth of carbonization layer did not increase no more. The single crystalline 3C-SiC thin films on optimal carbonized Si substrate showed an improvement on the crystallinity, the growth rate, the roughness, and the carrier concentration.

It is well known that the fabrication process of carbon/carbon composites is very complex. Above all, the carbonization process have major effect on the morphology development of carbon matrix. Carbon/carbon composites of 4-directional fiber preform were fabricated using the coal tar based pitch as a matrix precursor in this study. According to carbonization pressure of 1 bar, 100 bar, 600 bar, and 900 bar, morphological changes of cokes and matrix of composites were discussed. As the carbonization pressure increased to 600 bar, the flow pattern morphology of bulk mesophse was well developed. On the contrary, mosaic pattern morphology was found in case of 900 bar of carbonization pressure. It is confirmed that the carbonization pressure have profound effect on the degree of graphitization and crystal size of carbon matrix. Even in the highly densified carbon/carbon composites, large voids were still found in the matrix pocket region.

Characteristics of charcoals manufactured in each temperature as 400, 600 800, 1,000 and $1,200^{\circ}C$ were examined. Sapwood and heartwood of Quercus variabilis that one of major species in charcoal materials were used for this experiment. Charcoal density was decreased highly 38-60% compared with wood density and density of sapwood was slightly decreased but heartwood was not changed with increasing carbonization temperature increase. Weight loss of sapwood and heartwood charcoal increased as carbonization temperature increases, and there is no difference between sapwood and heartwood charcoal. Refining degree of sapwood and heartwood charcoal was zero in charring over $800^{\circ}C$. Moisture and ash of sapwood and heartwood charcoal in each carbonization temperature were not differed between sapwood and heartwood. Volatile of sapwood charcoal was slightly higher than that of heartwood, and decreased as carbonization temperature increases. As the carbonization temperature increased, fixed carbon of sapwood and heartwood charcoal increased. Calorific values of charcoal prepared at $600^{\circ}C$ were 7,200-7,300 cal/g and then decreased slightly as carbonization temperature increased.

In recent years, the demand of activated carbon has been increasing steadily because of the environmental problems. Among them waste and water treatment and removal of poisonous gas were invorved. Therefore, in this study, activated carbon was made from the waste chinese cabbage and measured the iodine adsorption ability, carbonization yield, and activation yield of the produced activated carbon. The result showed that the carbonization yield was decreased when carbonization temperature was increaed and that the optimal carbonization temperature was $600{\circ}C$. The optimal concentration of NaOH for removing ash in the raw sample was 1~2N. The range of iodine adsorption number of activated carbon using chinese cabbage at $600{\circ}C$. carbonization was 610.82mg/g to 1019.58mg/g. The activation result of carbonization sample showed that the optimal activation condition was the carbonization at $400\circ}C$ and the activation at$700{\circ}C$. So the production of activated carbon using chinese cabbage was possible in the aspect of reuse of resource and decrease of environmental pollution compared to the commercial activated carbon.

This study was carried out to investigate the influences of environmental condition in storage room, moisture content and packing weight of leaf on the carbonization of processed flue-cured leaf tobacco, and find out a regression model able to pre-estimate the degree of carbonization. The influence of temperature and humidity in storage room on the carbonization was high,, while that of packing weight was relatively low, However, high moisture content and packing weight of leaf accelerated the carbonization under the high temperature and humidity condition. Thus the leaf tobacco under the condition of 4$0^{\circ}C$, 7$0^{\circ}C$ R.H. in storage room, 16% moisture content and 286 kg/box of packing weight could be carbonized within one month. The pH, total sugar content, lightness(L) and yellowness(b) of leaf were closely related to carbonization of leaf during storage. There were significant regression and yellowness of leaf. It is considered that the certification and/or pre-estimation of carbonization during storage may be possible by applying the regression equation.

Polyacetylene (PA) films with vertically aligned fibril morphology were synthesized in homeotropic nematic liquid crystal (N-LC) solvent by using a magnetic field of 5 Tesla as an external perturbation. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) photographs indicated that the lengths of fibrils from the substrate were $5-35{\mu}m$, depending on polymerization time. Carbonization was carried out using iodine-doped PA film and a morphology-retaining carbonization method. From the SEM results, we confirmed that the vertical morphology of the PA remains unchanged even after carbonization at $800^{\circ}C$. The weight loss of the films due to carbonization at $800^{\circ}C$ is about 20% of the weight of the film before iodine doping. It is expected that vertically aligned carbon might be a precursor for preparing vertical graphite materials, which materials could be useful for electrochemical energy storage and cell electrodes.
