Two crystal structures of bromine sorption complexes of vacuum dehydrated Cd(ll)-exchanged zeolite A have been determined by single-crystal xray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group Pm3m at 21(1) ℃. Both crystals were ion exchanged in flowing streams of exchange solution In which mole ratio of Cd(NO3)2 and Cd(OOCCH3)B was 1:1 with a total concentration of 0.05 M. First crystal was dehydrated at 450℃ and 2 ×10-6 Torr for two days. Second crystal was dehydrated at 650℃ and 2 ×10-6 Torr for two days. Both crystals were then treated with 160 Torr for two days. Second crystal was dehydrated at 650℃ and 2 × 10-6 Torr for two days. Both crystals were then treated with 160 Torr of zeolitically dried bromine vapor at 24℃. Full-matrix least-squares refinements of toe first crystal(a: 12.250(1) A )· and the second crystal(a: 12.204(2) A ) have contecoed to final error indices, Rl:0.075 and Ra:0.079 with 212 reflections, and Rl : 0.089 and Ra = 0.078 with 128 reflections, respectively, for which I >3σ(I). Crystallographic analyses of both crystals show that six Cd2+ ions are located on two different threefold axes of unit cell associated with 6-ring oxygens. Each 4.5 Cd2+ ion is recessed ca.0. 441 A Into the large cavity to complex either with Brsor with Br3from the (111) plane of 0(3), whereas each 1.5 Cd2+ ions recessed ca. 0.678 A into we sodalite unit. Approximately 1.5 Br5-and 1.5 Br3-ions are sorbed per unit cell. Each Brsion interacts and stabilized by complexing with two Cd2+ ions and framework oxide ions, while each Br3ion interacts with one Cd2+ ion and framework oxide ions. Because of residual water molecules the following reactions may be occurred inside of zeolite cavity:

To study the properties of Sr²⁺ exchange into zeolite A with increasing the molar concentration of Na⁺ in given exchange solution, four single crystals of fully dehydrated Sr²⁺- and Na⁺- exchanged zeolite A were prepared by the bath method using mixed ion-exchange solutions. The Sr(NO₃)₂:NaNO₃ molar rations of the ion exchange solution were 1:1(crystal 1), 1:100(crystal 2), 1:250(crystal 3), and 1:500 (crystal 4), respectively, with a total concentration of 0.05 M. The single-crystals were then vacuum dehydration at 623 K and 1×10^-4 Pa for 2 days. Their single-crystal structures were determined by single-crystal synchrotron X-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group Pm3-m, at 100(1) K, and were then refined to the final error indices of R₁/wR₂=0.047/0.146, 0.048/0.142, 0.036/0.128, and 0.040/0.156 for crystals 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. In crystals 1 and 2, the 6 Sr²⁺ ions are found at three different crystallographic sites. In crystal 3, 1 Sr²⁺ and 10 Na⁺ ions are found in large cavity and sodalite unit. In crystal 4, only 12 Na⁺ ions occupy three equipoints. The degree of Sr²⁺ ion-exchange decreased sharply from 100 to 16.7 to 0% as the initial Na⁺ concentration increase and the Sr²⁺ concentration decrease. In addition, the unit cell constant of the zeolite framework decreased with this lower level of Sr²⁺ exchange.

The single-crystal structure of fully dehydrated partially $Li^+$-exchanged zeolite Y, ${\mid}Li_{50}Na_{25}{\mid}[Si_{117}Al_{75}O_{384}]$-FAU, was determined by single-crystal synchrotron X-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group $Fd\bar{3}m$ at 100(1) K. Ion exchange was accomplished by flowing stream of 0.1 M aqueous $LiNO_3$ for 2 days at 293 K, followed by vacuum dehydration at 623 K and $1{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr for 2 days. The structure was refined using all intensities to the final error indices (using only the 801 reflections with ($F_o$ > $4{\sigma}(F_o)$) $R_1/R_2=0.043/0.140$. The 50 $Li^+$ ions per unit cell are found at three different crystallographic sites. The 19 $Li^+$ ions occupy at site I' in the sodalite cavity: the $Li^+$ ions are recessed 0.30 ${\AA}$ into the sodalite cavity from their 3-oxygens plane (Li-O = 1.926(5) ${\AA}$ and $O-Li-O=117.7(3)^{\circ}$). The 20 $Li^+$ ions are found at site II in the supercage, being recessed 0.23 ${\AA}$ into the supercage (Li-O = 2.038(5) ${\AA}$ and $O-Li-O=118.7(3)^{\circ}$). Site III' positions are occupied by 11 $Li^+$ ions: these $Li^+$ ions bind strongly to one oxygen atom (Li-O = 2.00(8) ${\AA}$). About 25 $Na^+$ ions per unit cell are found at four different crystallographic sites: 4 $Na^+$ ions are at site I, 5 at site I', 12 at site II, and the remaining 4 at site III'.

The structure of $CS_{7.3}Ag_{4.7}Si_{12}Al_{12}O_{48}$, vacuum dehydrated zeolite A with all Na+ ions replaced by $Cs^+$ and $Ag^+$ as indicated, has been determined by single-crystal x-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group, Pm3m (a = 12.282 (1) ${\AA}$). The structure was refined to the final error indices $R_1$$R_2$ (weighted) = 0.099 using 347 independent reflections for whind intlch $I_0\;>\;3{\sigma}(I_0)$. Although deydration occurred at $360^{\circ}C$, no silver atoms or clusters have been observed. The 8-ring sites are occupied only by $Cs^+$ ion, and the 4-ring sites only by a single $Ag^+$ ion. The 6-ring sites contain $Ag^+$ and $Cs^+$ ions with $Ag^+$ nearly in 6-ring planes and $Cs^+$ well off them, one on the sodalite unit side. With regard to the 6-rings, the structure can be represented as a superposition of two types of unit cells: about 70 % have $4Ag^+$ and $4Cs^+$ ions, and the remaining 30 % have $3Ag^+$ and $5Cs^+$. In all unit cells, $3Cs^+$ ions lie at the centers of the 8-rings at sites of D4h symmetry; these ions are approximately 0.3 ${\AA}$ further from their nearest framework-oxygen neighbors than the sum of the appropriate ionic radii would indicate. To minimize electrostatic repulsions, the $Cs^+$ ions at Cs(1) are not likely to occupy adjacent 6-rings in the large cavity; they are likely to be tetrahedrally arranged when there are 4.

Adsorption and desorption characteristics of methyl iodide at high temperature conditions up to 25$0^{\circ}C$ by TEDA-impregnated activated carbon and silver-ion exchanged zeolite(AgX-10), which are used for radioiodine retention in nuclear facility, were experimentally evaluated. In the range of temperature from 3$0^{\circ}C$ to 25$0^{\circ}C$, the adsorption capacity of base activated carbon decreased sharply with increasing temperature but that of TEDA-impregnated activated carbon showed higher value even at high temperature ranges. Especially, the residual amount of methyl iodide after desorption on TEDA-AC represented 30% lower value than that on AgX-10. However, it can be used as an adsorbent for the removal of methyl iodide up to 15$0^{\circ}C$ if it is preventing explosion by Ignition. The breakthrough curves of methyl iodide in the fixed bed packed with AgX-10 uP to 40$0^{\circ}C$ were compared upon the effects of bed temperatures, bed depth and input concentration of methyl iodide. Removal mechanism of methyl iodide on AgX-10 was proposed, based on the analysis of by-product gas generated from adsorption reaction.

The structure of a carbon monoxide sorption complex of dehydrated fully $Ca^{2+}$-exchanged zeolite X, $|Ca_{46}(CO)_{27}|[Si_{100}Al_{92}O_{384}]$-FAU, has been determined in the cubic space group $Fd\;{\overline{3}}$ at $21^{\circ}C$ (a = 24.970(4) ) by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The crystal was prepared by ion exchange in a flowing stream of 0.05 M aqueous ${Ca(NO_3)_2}$ for three days, followed by dehydration at $400^{\circ}C$ and $2{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr for two days, and exposure to 100 Torr of zeolitically dry carbon monoxide gas at $21^{\circ}C$. The structure was determined in this atmosphere and was refined, using the 356 reflections for which $F_o$ > $4{\sigma}(F_o)$, to the final error indices $R_1$ = 0.059 and $wR_2$ = 0.087. In this structure, $Ca^{2+}$ ions occupy three crystallographic sites. Sixteen $Ca^{2+}$ ions fill the octahedral site I at the centers of hexagonal prisms (Ca-O = 2.415(7) ${\AA}$). The remaining 30 $Ca^{2+}$ ions are found at two nonequivalent sites II (in the supercages) with occupancies of 3 and 27 ions. Each of these $Ca^{2+}$ ions coordinates to three framework oxygens, either at 2.276(10) or 2.298(8) ${\AA}$, respectively. Twenty-seven carbon monoxide molecules have been sorbed per unit cell, three per supercage. Each coordinates to one of the latter 16 site-II $Ca^{2+}$ ions: C-Ca = 2.72(8) ${\AA}$. The imprecisely determined N-C bond length, 1.26(14) ${\AA}$, differs insignificantly from that in carbon monoxide(g), 1.13 ${\AA}$.

The single-crystal structure of partially dehydrated partially $Mg^{2+}$-exchanged zeolite Y, ${\mid}Mg{30.5}Na_{14}(H_2O)_{2.5}{\mid}$ [$Si_{117}Al_{75}O_{384}$]-FAU per unit cell, ${\alpha}$ = 25.5060(1) ${\AA}$, dehydrated at 723 K and $1{\times}10^{-4}$ Pa, has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group Fd$\bar{3}$ m at 100(1) K. The structure was refined using all intensities to the final error indices (using only the 561 reflections with $F_{\circ}$ > $4{\sigma}(F_{\circ})$) $R_1$ = 0.0377 (Based on F) and $R_2$ = 0.1032 (Based on $F^2$). About 30.5 $Mg^{2+}$ ions per unit cell are found at four different crystallographic sites. The 14 $Mg^{2+}$ ions occupy at site I at the center of double 6-ring (Mg-O = 2.231(3) ${\AA}$, O-Mg-O = $89.15(11)^{\circ}$ and $90.85(11)^{\circ}$). Four $Mg^{2+}$ ions are found at site I' in the sodalite cavity; the $Mg^{2+}$ ions are recessed 1.22 ${\AA}$ into the sodalite cavity from their 3-oxygen plane (Mg-O = 2.20(3) ${\AA}$ and O-Mg-O = $92.3(14)^{\circ}$). Site II' positions (opposite single 6-rings in the sodalite cage) are occupied by 2.5 $Mg^{2+}$ ions, each coordinated to an $H_2O$ molecule (Mg-O = 2.187(20) ${\AA}$ and O-Mg-O = $114.2(16)^{\circ}$). The 10 $Mg^{2+}$ ions are nearly three-quarters filled at site II in the supercage, being recessed 0.12 ${\AA}$ into the supercage (Mg-O = 2.123(4) A and O-Mg-O = $119.70(19)^{\circ}$). About 14 $Na^+$ ions per unit cell are found at one crystallographic site; the $Na^+$ ions are located at site II in the supercage (Na-O = 2.234(7) ${\AA}$ and O-Mg-O = $110.5(4)^{\circ}$).

Two crystal structures of fully dehydrated silver and potassium exchanged zeolite A, stoichiometries of $Ag_{9.3}K_{{2.7}^-}A$ (${\alpha}$ = 12.282(2) ${\AA}$) and $Ag_{10.7}K_{{1.3}^-}{\AA}$ (${\alpha}$ = 12.287(2) A) per unit cell, have been determined from 3-dimensional x-ray diffraction data gathered by counter methods. All structures were solved and refined in the cubic space group Pm3m at 21(1)$^{\circ}C$ . The crystals of $Ag_{9.3}K_{{2.7}^-}A$ and $Ag_{10.7}K_{{1.3}^-}A$ were prepared by flow method using exchange solutions in which mole ratios of $AgNO_3$ and $KNO_3$ were 1:10 and 1:5, respectively, with total concentration of 0.05M. The structures of the dehydrated $Ag_{9.3}K_{{2.7}^-}A$ and $Ag_{10.7}K_{{1.3}^-}A$ were refined to yield the final error indices $R_1$ = 0.037 and $R_2$ = 0.040 with 321 reflections, and $R_1$ = 0.042 and $R_2$ = 0.043 with 371 reflections, repectively, for which I > 3${\sigma}$(I). In both structures, eight $Ag^+$ ions are found nearly at 6-ring centers and each $Ag^+$ ion is nearly in the (1 1 1) plane at its O(3) ligands. The 8-ring sites are preferentially occupied by $K^+$ ions in both structures. 1.3 and 1.7 reduced silver atoms per unit cell were found inside of sodalite units of $Ag_{9.3}K_{{2.7}^-}A$ and that of $Ag_{10.7}K_{{1.3}^-}A$, respectively. These reduced silver species were presumably formed from the reduction of $Ag^+$ ions by oxide ions of residual water molecule or of the zeolite framework. These two crystals may be presented as hexasilver cluster in 21.7% and 28.3% of sodalite unit cells for $Ag_{9.3}K_{{2.7}^-}A$ and $Ag_{10.7}K_{{1.3}^-}A$, repectively.

The effect of heat-treatment temperature on the activity of catalysts was studied by investigating $N_2O$ decomposition reaction in Fe ion-supported BEA Zeolite. As a result of $N_2O$ decomposition reaction experiment, $N_2O$ decomposition activity significantly decreased as heat-treatment temperature of Fe/BEA catalyst increased. the shape and size of the particles of Fe/BEA catalyst following the rise of heat-treatment temperature did not display a significant change. But following the rise of the heat-treatment temperature, its surface area was significantly reduced. Also it was confirmed that as the heat-treatment temperature rose, the crystallization of ${\beta}$ structure was greatly reduced. And as heat-treatment temperature rose, while SiO structure either increased or did not exhibit much change, the structure of Fe bonded with lattice structure was speculated to decrease. From the stated results, it was concluded that the increase of heat-treatment temperature became the cause of the declined activity of catalysts by destruction of its ${\beta}$ structure of bonding aluminium and Fe atoms.

The crystal structures of fully dehydrated $Pd^{2+}$ - and $TI^{+}$ -exchanged zeolite X, $Pd_{18}TI_{56}Si_{100}Al_{92}O_{384}(Pd_{18}TI_{50-}X$, a = $24.935(4)\AA$ and $Pd_{21}TI_{50}Si_{100}Al_{92}O_{384}(Pd_{21}TI_{50-}X$ a = $24.914(4)\AA)$, have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods in the cubic space group Fd3 at $21(1)^{\circ}C.$ The crystals were prepared using an exchange solution that had a $Pd(NH_3)_4Cl_2\;:TINO_3$ mole ratio of 50 : 1 and 200 : 1, respectively, with a total concentration of 0.05M for 4 days. After dehydration at $360^{\circ}C$ and 2 ${\times}$$10^{-6}$ Torr in flowing oxygen for 2 days, the crystals were evacuated at $21(1)^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. They were refined to the final error indices $R_1$ = 0.045 and $R_2$ = 0.038 with 344 reflections for $Pd_{18}Tl_{56-}X$, and $R_1$ = 0.043 and $R_2$ = 0.045 with 280 reflections for $Pd_{21}Tl_{50-}X$; I > $3\sigma(I).$ In the structure of dehydrated $Pd_{18}Tl_{56-}X$, eighteen $Pd^{2+}$ ions and fourteen $TI^{+}$ ions are located at site I'. About twenty-seven $TI^{+}$ ions occupy site II recessed $1.74\AA$ into a supercage from the plane of three oxygens. The remaining fifteen $TI^{+}$ ions are distributed over two non-equivalent III' sites, with occupancies of 11 and 4, respectively. In the structure of $Pd_{21}Tl_{50-}X$, twenty $Pd^{2+}$ and ten $TI^{+}$ ions occupy site I', and one $Pd^{2+}$ ion is at site I. About twenty-three $TI^{+}$ ions occupy site II, and the remaining seventeen $TI^{+}$ ions are distributed over two different III' sites. $Pd^{2+}$ ions show a limit of exchange (ca. 39% and 46%), though their concentration of exchange was much higher than that of $TI^{+}$ ions. $Pd^{2+}$ ions tend to occupy site I', where they fit the double six-ring plane as nearly ideal trigonal planar. $TI^{+}$ ions fill the remaining I' sites, then occupy site II and two different III' sites. The two crystal structures show that approximately two and one-half I' sites per sodalite cage may be occupied by $Pd^{2+}$ ions. The remaining I' sites are occupied by $TI^{+}$ ions with Tl-O bond distance that is shorter than the sum of their ionic radii. The electrostatic repulsion between two large $TI^{+}$ ions and between $TI^{+}$ and $Pd^{2+}$ ions in the same $\beta-cage$ pushes each other to the charged six-ring planes. It causes the Tl-O bond to have some covalent character. However, $TI^{+}$ ions at site II form ionic bonds with three oxygens because the super-cage has the available space to obtain the reliable ionic bonds.
