  • The cobalt silicides were investigated for employment as a catalytic layer for a DSSC. Using an E-gun evaporation process, we prepared a sample of 100 nm-thick cobalt on a p-type Si (100) wafer. To form cobalt silicides, the samples were annealed at temperatures of $300^{\circ}C$, $500^{\circ}C$, and $700^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes in a vacuum. Four-point probe, XRD, FE-SEM, and CV analyses were used to determine the sheet resistance, phase, microstructure, and catalytic activity of the cobalt silicides. To confirm the corrosion stability, we also checked the microstructure change of the cobalt silicides after dipping into iodide electrolyte. Through the sheet resistance and XRD results, we determined that $Co_2Si$, CoSi, and $CoSi_2$ were formed successfully by annealing at $300^{\circ}C$, $500^{\circ}C$, and $700^{\circ}C$, respectively. The microstructure analysis results showed that all the cobalt silicides were formed uniformly, and CoSi and $CoSi_2$ layers were very stable even after dipping in the iodide electrolyte. The CV result showed that CoSi and $CoSi_2$ exhibit catalytic activities 67 % and 54 % that of Pt. Our results for $Co_2Si$, CoSi, and $CoSi_2$ revealed that CoSi and $CoSi_2$ could be employed as catalyst for a DSSC.

  • The selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of $MnO_x$ with $NH_3$ is an effective method for the removal of $MnO_x$ from stationary system. The typical catalyst for this method is $V_2O_5-WO_3(MoO_3)/TiO_2$, caused by the high activity and stability. However, This catalyst is active within $300{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ and occurs the pore plugging from the deposition of ammonium sulfate salts on the catalysts surface. It needs to locate the SCR unit after the desulfurizer and electrostatic precipitator without reheating of the flue gas as well as deposition of dust on the catalyst. The manganese oxides supported on titania catalysts have attracted interest because of its high SCR activity at low temperature. The catalytic activity of $MnO_x/TiO_2$ SCR catalyst with different manganese precursors have investigated for low-temperature SCR in terms of structural, morphological, and physico-chemical analyses. The $MnO_x/TiO_2$ were prepared from three different precursors such as manganese nitrate, manganese acetate (II), and manganese acetate (III) by the sol-gel method and then it calcinated at $500^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr. The structural analysis was carried out to identify the phase transition and the change intensity of catalytic activity by various manganese precursors was analyzed by FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy. These different precursors also led to various surface Mn concentrations indicated by SEM. The Mn acetate (III) tends to be more suppressive the crystalline phase (rutile), and it has not only smaller particle size, but also better distributed than the others. It was confirmed that the catalytic activity of MA (III)-$MnO_x/TiO_2$ was the highest among them.

  • Catalytic gasification of mandarin waste residue was carried out using direct and indirect catalyst-contact methods for the first time. In the indirect method, non-catalytic reaction in a reactor was followed by catalytic upgrading of vapor product in another reactor. Two different catalysts, $Ni/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ and $Ni/CeO_2-ZrO_2$, were employed. $CeO_2-ZrO_2$ support was prepared using hydrothermal synthesis in supercritical water. The catalysts were characterized by $H_2$-temperature programmed reduction and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analyses. Under the condition of equivalent ratio (ER) = 0, the indirect catalyst-contact method led to a higher gas yield than the direct method. Under ER = 0.2, the yield of biogas obtained over $Ni/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ was higher than that obtained over $Ni/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$. Also, the coke formation of $Ni/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ was lower than that of $Ni/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$. Such results were attributed to the higher reducibility and better lattice oxygen mobility of $Ni/CeO_2-ZrO_2$, which were advantageous for partial oxidation reaction.

  • A novel catalytic kinetic method is proposed for the determination of Se(IV), Se(VI) and total inorganic selenium in water based on the catalytic effect of Se(IV) on the reduction of bromate by p-nitrophenylhydrazine at pH 3.0. The generated bromine, $Br_2$ or $Cl_2$ plus $Br_2$ in 0.1 M NaCl (or NaBr) environment efficiently decolorized Calmagite and the reaction was monitored spectrophotometrically at 523 nm as a function of time. In this indicator reaction, bromide acted as an activator for the catalysis of selenium (IV) and a reducing agent for selenium (VI) at pH 3.0, which allowed the determination of total selenium. The fixed time method was adopted for the determination and speciation of inorganic selenium. Under the optimum conditions, the calibration graph are linear in the range 1 - 35 ${\mu}gL^{-1}$ of Se(IV) for the fixed time method at $25^{\circ}C$. The detection limit based on statistical $3S_{blank}$/m-criterion was 0.215 ${\mu}gL^{-1}$ for the fixed time method (7 min). All of the variables that affect the sensitivity at 523 nm were investigated, and the optimum conditions were established. The interference effect of various cations and anions on the Se (IV) determination was also studied. The selectivity of the selenium determination was greatly improved with the use of the strongly cation exchange resin such as Amberlite IR120 plus. The proposed kinetic method was validated statistically and through recovery studies in natural water samples. The RSDs for ten replicate measurements of 5, 15 and 25 ${\mu}gL^{-1}$ of Se(IV) and Se(VI) was changed between 2.1 - 4.85%. Analyses of a certified standard reference material (NIST SRM 1643e) for selenium using the fixed-time method showed that the proposed kinetic method has good accuracy. Se(IV), Se(VI) and total inorganic selenium in environmental water samples have been successfully determined by this method after selective reduction of Se(VI) to Se(IV).

  • VOCs의 촉매산화 공정에서 다성분 VOCs 혼합물의 간섭효과와 독성저감에 고나해 연구를 수행하였다. VOCs로는 benzene, toluene, styrene을 선정하였고, 0.5% $Pt/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$를 촉매로 사용하였다. 각 VOCs의 반응성은 치환기의 종류에 따라 결합력이 다르기 때문에 benzene > toluene > styrene의 순으로 완전산화 반응이 잘 진행되었다. VOCs의 혼합물의 경우 각 VOCs는 서로 억제제로 작용하여 오나전산화 전환율을 감소시켰는데 이는 촉매표면에 각각의 VOCs가 경쟁 흡착하기 때문으로 styrene > toluene > benzene의 순으로 간섭효과가 크게 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이성분계 혼합 VOCs의 경우 혼합비에 따른 완전산화 전환율은 간섭효과가 작은 VOCs의 경우 상대 VOCs의 농도가 작을수록 전환율이 크게 나타났으며, 간섭효과가 큰 VOCs의 경우에는 상대 VOCs의 농도에 관계없이 자신의 부분농도에 반비레하는 현상을 보였다. 따라서 VOCs의 독성저감 기술로 촉매산화공정을 추천할 수 있으며, 실제공정과 같은 혼합물의 경우에도 단일성분의 전환특성과 혼합물의 간섭효과로부터 공정조건을 예측할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • 배리어(dielectric-barrier discharge: DBD) 반응기에서 솔-젤 방법으로 제조한 $Pt/TiO_2$를 넣고 플라즈마 에너지를 사용하여 메탄전환반응 연구를 수행하였다. 제조된 촉매는 기존 금속산화물과는 다른 방법으로 환원을 하였으며, 플라즈마를 사용한 환원방법(plasma-assisted reduction: PAR)이라고 명명하였다. $Pt/TiO_2$ 촉매는 Pt 담지량 및 소성온도에 관계없이 20분 이내에 환원이 완료되었다. 3 wt% $Pt/TiO_2$ 촉매와 5 wt% $Pt/TiO_2$ 촉매를 $600^{\circ}C$에서 소성하여 PAR 방법으로 환원했을 때 메탄의 전환율은 40%로 가장 높았다. DBD 반응기에서 $Pt/TiO_2$ 촉매를 사용하였을 경우 촉매가 없을 때보다 $C_2H_6$, $C_3H_8$$C_4H_{10}$과 같은 알칸의 선택성의 매우 높게 나타났다.
