Experiments have been conducted to investigate emission characteristics of compressed natural gas fueled vehicle(CNGV) by the FTP 75 mode test. Its purification technologies were also investigated. It was found that CNGV was operated on the rich A/F condition by comparison with gasoline vehicle. The Pd catalyst was higher in methane purification performance than Pt and Pd/Pt/Rh catalysts. Up to 60% portion of the accumulative HC emissions(that contains above 80% methane) form CNGV occurs during the first phase of the FTP 75 mode. CO that is exhausted at rich conditions of the air-fuel ratio more than lean conditions should be used for the catalytic reduction of NOX, because the methane is not the effective reduction for NOX in the CNGV with 3-way catalyst system.

In this study, a biological odor treatment system was proposed to remove odor(foul smell) materials causing several problems in the closed sewage treatment plant. This odor treatment system was composed of a two-step biofilter system in one reactor. The two-step biofilter reactor was constructed with natural purification layer in upper part and artificial purification layer in lower part. The reed grasses of water purification plants were planted in the surface area and mixed porous ceramic media were filled with the lower part of biofilter reactor. By using the above experimental apparatus, the ammonia gas removal efficiency was attained to 98.3 % and the hydrogen sulfide gas removal efficiency was appeared more than 97.7 % which shows more effective than the conventional odor removal process.

우리나라는 천연가스 수입국으로 2018년 미국이 수출한 물량의 20%를 수입할 정도로 많은 양을 수입하고 있다. 이에 가스 수요를 만족시키며, 기후변화 대응에 효과적으로 대응할 수 있는 바이오가스는 대체제가 될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 그러나 바이오가스의 생산량의 20%만이 판매되고 있고, 이 역시 효율이 좋지 못해 활용하기 어려운 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 바이오가스를 도시가스로 공급 할 수 있는 최적의 정제 시스템을 개발을 목적으로 하였다. 시스템 선정을 위한 바이오가스에 대한 분석, 시스템 설계를 위한 사례 발굴, 시나리오 구성, 비용편익 툴을 개발하고 사례 적용하여 최적의 시스템을 개발하고자 하였다.

Anaerobic digestion(AD) has successfully been used for many applications that have conclusively demonstrated its ability to recycle biogenic wastes. AD has been successfully applied in industrial waste water treatment, stabilsation of sewage sludge, landfill management and recycling of biowaste and agricultural wastes as manure, energy crops. During AD, i.e. organic materials are decomposed by anaerobic forming bacteria and fina1ly converted to excellent fertilizer and biogas which is primarily composed of methane(CH4) and carbon dioxide(CO2) with smaller amounts of hydrogen sulfide(H2S) and ammonia(NH3), trace gases such as hydrogen(H2), nitrogen(N2), carbon monoxide(CO), oxygen(O2) and contain dust particles and siloxanes. The production and utilisation of biogas has several environmental advantages such as i)a renewable energy source, ii)reduction the release of methane to the atomsphere, iii)use as a substitute for fossil fuels. In utilisation of biogas, most of biogas produced from small scale plant e.g. farm-scale AD plant are used to provide as energy source for cooking and lighting, in most of the industrialised countries for energy recovery, environmental and safety reasons are used in combined heat and power(CHP) engines or as a supplement to natural. In particular, biogas to use as vehicle fuel or for grid injection there different biogas treatment steps are necessary, it is important to have a high energy content in biogas with biogas purification and upgrading. The energy content of biogas is in direct proportion to the methane content and by removing trace gases and carbon dioxide in the purification and upgrading process the energy content of biogas in increased. The process of purification and upgrading biogas generates new possibilities for its use since it can then replace natural gas, which is used extensively in many countries, However, those technologies add to the costs of biogas production. It is important to have an optimized purification and upgrading process in terms of low energy consumption and high efficiency giving high methane content in the upgraded gas. A number of technologies for purification and upgrading of biogas have been developed to use as a vehicle fuel or grid injection during the passed twenty years, and several technologies exist today and they are continually being improved. The biomethane which is produced from the purification and the upgrading process of biogas has gained increased attention due to rising oil and natural gas prices and increasing targets for renewable fuel quotes in many countries. New plants are continually being built and the number of biomethane plants was around 100 in 2009.

천연 흑연의 음극재 적용을 위하여 정제 공정을 실시하였으며, 공정에 따른 흑연의 구조적 변화와 불순물 함량이 음극 특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 천연 흑연은 불화암모늄과 황산을 동일 비로 하여 사용량을 달리한 산처리 및 온도(800~2500 ℃)를 달리한 열처리를 통하여 화학적/물리적으로 정제되었다. 산을 이용한 불순물 제거는 한계가 있었으며, 이후 진행된 2500 ℃까지의 열처리를 통해 Si과 같은 일부 원소를 제외하고 대부분의 불순물이 전량 제거되는 것을 확인하였다. 복합 정제 공정에 따라 제조된 흑연 음극재의 특성이 향상되었으며, 구조와 불순물 함량 변화는 각각 용량 및 속도 특성과 초기 쿨롱 효율에 지배적인 영향을 미쳤다. 복합 정제 공정은 흑연 구조를 향상시켰으며, 불순물을 효율적으로 제거하여 SEI층 형성 억제 및 Li⁺ 삽입 공간 확대를 통해 리튬 이온 전지의 성능을 향상시켰다.

The model gas reaction tests were carried out to investigate the purification characteristics of methane on the exclusive catalyst for NGV. The experiment was conducted with the factors which affect the conversion efficiency of methane, such as Redox ratio, coexistence components of CO, MO, $H_2$O, precious metals and additives. The catalyst loaded with larger amount of pd and with additive La showed lower light-off temperature. In the presence of CO and NO, the conversion efficiency of methane was varied according to the kind of additive loaded. The conversion efficiency of methane was dropped for the catalyst loaded with La under lean air-fuel ratio, while it increased for the one loaded with Ti+Zr for the same condition. It was shown that the water vapor inhibited methane from oxidation by its poisoning on the surface of catalyst.

Natural gas reformed hydrogen is used as a fuel of fuel cell vehicle, PSA process is used for the purification of reformed hydrogen. In this study, the performance of CO adsorbent in PSA process was evaluated. Zeolite adsorbents used in the commercial PSA process is used. The physical and chemical properties of adsorbents were characterized using BET apparatus, XRD, and FE-SEM. The breakthrough apparatus modified from GC was used for the CO breakthrough experiment, the quantitative analysis of CO adsorption capacity was performed using CO breakthrough curve. Zeolite 10X and 13X showed superior CO adsorption capacity than activated alumina. The CO adsorption capacity of zeolite 10X is more than twice of zeolite 13X even the BET surface area is low. It seems that the presence of $Ca^{2+}$ cation in zeolite 10X is beneficial to the adsorption of CO.

가스분리막을 이용한 분리공정은 기존의 분리공정을 대체할 공정으로서 수십 년간 발전이 되어 왔다. 특히 분리막 공정은 가스분리에 있어서 기존공정에 비해서 에너지 소모가 적고 설치에 필요한 공간이 간소하며, 스케일업이 간단한 장점이 있다. 최근에는 기체분리막 공정은 질소발생장치, 수소발생장치, 막제습기, 선박이나 항공기용 불활성기체충진장치, 천연가스 정제, 바이오가스 정제, 연료전지분야에서 널리 사용이 되고 있으며, 향후에는 이산화탄소의 분리에도 강력한 대체공정으로 사용이 될 수 있다. 이러한 가스분리막 공정을 좀 더 널리 보급하기 위해서는 로베슨 플롯의 한계를 넘어설 수 있는 새로운 소재의 개발이 절실하며, 이러한 한계를 돌파하기 위하여 많은 연구자와 회사들이 카도그룹이나 스피로 구조를 가지는 고분자나 PIMs 같은 소재의 개발에 박차를 가하고 있다.

Low Calorific Gas Turbine (LCGT) has been developed as a next generation power system using landfill gas (LFG) and biogas made from various organic wastes, food Waste, waste water and Livestock biogas. Low calorific fuel purification by pretreatment system and carbon dioxide fixation by green house system are very important design target for the optimum applications of LCGT. Main troubles of Low Calorific Gas Turbine system was derived from the impurities such as hydro sulfide, siloxane, water contained in biogas. Even if the quality of the bio fuel is not better than natural gas, LCGT may take low quality gas fuel and environmental friendly power system. The mechanical characterisitics of LCGT system is a high energy efficiency (>70%), wide range of output power (30 kW - 30 MW class) and very clean emission from power system (low NOx). A green house has been designed for four different carbon dioxide concentration from ambient air to 2000 ppm by utilizing the exhaust gas and hot water from LCGT system. LCGT is expected to contribute achieving the target of Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS).
