Kimchi attached gas-absorbent and unattached one were stored at 20$^{\circ}C$, examined for the storage effects by measuring changes of pH, acidity, CO$_2$ contents, total microbe and lactic acid bacteria. pH of kimchi attached KOH is higher than that of the others during storage. Acidity of kimchi attached KOH is lower than that of the others during storage. The CO$_2$ contents of kimchi used KOH as Bas-absorbent is 1.5 mg% at 6 days, after it's value is constant during storage. And the CO$_2$ content of kimchi attached gas-absorbent is lower than that of kimchi unattached gas-absorbent. Total microbe number of kimchi unattached gas-absorbent, treated Ca(OH)$_2$ and treated KOH are the highest value at 6, 6 and 8 days, respectively. Lactic acid bacteria number of kimchi is increased during storage and that of kimchi attached gas-absorbent is higher than that of kimchi unattached gas-absorbent.

So, we use bentonite as a absorbent. So, we use bentonite as a absorbent. Bentonite is a 'clay mineral' composed to montmorillonite of main component that volcanic ash denatured to a clay mineral. Bentonite has fine microparticle of nano level, abundant mineral 66 of kinds, adsorbability, swelling, a positive ion(heavy metal adsorption reaction) as a bentonite's property. Using magnesia cement for oxide of magnesiuma and magnesium chloride as a main binder, we measure Radon gas absorbent efficiency and thermal conductivity.

The micro-porous asymmetric PVDF hollow fiber membranes for gas-liquid contactor were prepared by the dry-jet wet phase inversion process and the characteristics of hollow fiber membranes were evaluated by the gas permeation method and scanning electron microscope. The chemical absorbent for removal of $SO_2$ gas was sodium hydroxide at bench scale hollow fiber membrane contactor. The experiments were performed in a counter-current mode of operation with gas in the shell side and liquid in the fiber lumen of the module to examine the effect of various operating variables such as concentration of absorbent, gas flow rate, L/G ratio and concentration of inlet $SO_2$ gas on the $SO_2$ removal efficiency using PVDF hollow fiber membrane contactor. Membrane mass transfer coefficient($k_m$) was calculated by mathematical modeling. The volumetric overall mass transfer coefficient increased with increasing the concentration of absorbent and L/G ratio. The increase of the absorbent concentration and L/G ratio not only provides more sufficient alkalinity but also decreases liquid phase resistance. The volumetric overall mass transfer coefficient increased with increasing gas flow rate due to decreasing the gas phase resistance.

The theoretical membrane gas absorption module treatments in a hollow fiber gas-liquid membrane contactor using Happel's free surface model were obtained under countercurrent-flow operations. The analytical solutions were obtained using the separated variable method with an orthogonal expansion technique extended in power series. The $CO_2$ concentration in the liquid absorbent, total absorption rate and absorption efficiency were calculated theoretically and experimentally with the liquid absorbent flow rate, gas feed flow rate and initial $CO_2$ concentration in the gas feed as parameters. The improvements in device performance under countercurrent-flow operations to increase the absorption efficiency in a carbon dioxide and nitrogen gas feed mixture using a pure water liquid absorbent were achieved and compared with those in the concurrent-flow operation. Both good qualitative and quantitative agreements were achieved between the experimental results and theoretical predictions for countercurrent flow in a hollow fiber gas-liquid membrane contactor with accuracy of $6.62{\times}10^{-2}{\leq}E{\leq}8.98{\times}10^{-2}$.

This paper reports on the experimental investigation carried out to evaluate the physical optimal conditions in the absorption column to remove odorous hydrogen sulfide gas. Hydrogen sulfide gas, as a highly undesirable contaminant, is most widely emitted from environmental treatment facilities. The absorbent mixed with natural second metabolites extracted from conifer trees and chemical absorbent of 2-aminoethanol was applied to remove it via chemical neutralization. The absorbent of natural second metabolites was achieved by a removal efficiency of 20-40% by itself depending on the treatment conditions, but the complex absorbent mixed with 0.1% amine chemical provides the removal efficiency of 98%. The optimal removal efficiencies have been examined against the two major parameters of temperature and pH. This study shows that the aqueous solution by natural second metabolites can be used as an appropriate absorbent in the column absorbed for the removal of hydrogen sulfide gas.

The reversible chemical absorption using MEA (monoethanolamine), one of alkanolamine, is generally used as a conventionally method for $CO_{2}$ capture. Even MEA absorbent has excellent reactivity with $CO_{2}$, it has been known to have the decrease of absorption capacity caused by $CO_{2}$, $O_{2}$ or other acid gases in flue gas, corrosion and thermal degradation. In this study, MEA solutions degraded in the steam reforming process of refinery used and the absorption performance were compared for the used of conventional MEA solution. In case of 30 wt% MEA and mixture of 20 wt% thermal degraded absorbent (DP) and 10 wt% PZ, the absorption capacities were $0.5365mol-CO_{2}$/mol-absorbent and $0.5939mol-CO_{2}$/mol-absorbent respectively. PZ added thermally degraded absorbent showed the enhanced absorption capacity. On the contrary, the absorption rates were $1.1610kg_{f}/cm^2{\cdot}min$ for 30 wt% MEA, $0.5310kg_{f}/cm^2{\cdot}min$ for mixture of 20 wt% thermal degraded absorbent (DP) and 10 wt% PZ and $0.3525kg_{f}/cm^2{\cdot}min$ for 30 wt% thermally degraded absorbent only. The absorption rates of PZ added thermally degraded absorbent was higher than that of thermally degraded absorbent only. Therefore, it can be confirmed that thermally degraded absorbent can be reused as an absorbent for $CO_{2}$ by the addition of suitable additives.

The Effects of operating variables on reactivity of two $CO_2$ absorbents (PKM1-SU and P4-600) for SEWGS process were investigated in a pressurized fluidized bed reactor. For both $CO_2$ absorbents, $CO_2$ sorption capacity decreased as the number of absorption-regeneration cycles increased. PKM1-SU absorbent represented higher $CO_2$ sorption capacity than that of P4-600 absorbent. However, P4-600 absorbent represented better performance than PKM1-SU absorbent from the view points of regeneration temperature and regeneration rate. For PKM1-SU absorbent, $CO_2$ sorption capacity increased as the steam concentration increased. However, $CO_2$ sorption capacity increased initially as the steam concentration increased from 5% to 10%, but maintained thereafter for P4-600 absorbent. For both $CO_2$ absorbents, $CO_2$ sorption capacity increased as the final regeneration temperature increased. For PKM1-SU absorbent, $CO_2$ sorption capacity increased as the pressure increased and the increment tendency was drastic at higher pressure than 15 bar.

Three new granular absorbents were prepared from calcium hydroxide, and applied to an FGD process with internal circulation. The aim of the study was finding the most efficient of the these three applied absorbents for the $SO_2$ removal at high flue gas temperatures. The absorbent is fed to the testing unit at high operation temperature and fluidized inside the FGD system where the sorbent particles react with the $SO_2$ gas. The rate of $SO_2$ decomposition was high in C-type absorbent which had the large surface area. De-SOx characteristics of the current absorbents appeared to be similar to the other conventional agents in this fluidized bed combustor. In particular, the optimum de-SOx condition could be achieved at high mole ratios of Ca to S which can reduce the residual $SO_2$.

The acid gas removal (AGR) system was designed and installed to remove $H_2S$ in coal syngas in the pilot-scale coal gasification system for producing chemicals like Dimethyl Ether(DME). The syngas from the coal gasification at the rate of $100{\sim120$ $Nm^3$/hr included pollutants such as fly ash. $H_2S$, COS, $NH_3$, etc. The designed temperature and pressure of the AGR system are below 50oC and 8 kg/$cm^2$. Fe-chelate was used as an absorbent. $H_2S$ was stably removed below 0.5 ppm in the AGR system when the concentration of $H_2S$ was $150{\sim}450$ ppm. The pH of Fe-chelate solution was also stably maintained between $8{\sim}9$. FeMgO absorbent was also tested to remove $H_2S$ in the lab-scale AGR system and $H_2S$ was also removed below 0.5 ppm in the initial operation.
