A heterogeneous $Bi_2S_3/TiO_2$ composite catalyst was synthesized via a green ultrasonic-assisted method and characterized by XRD, SEM, EDX, TEM analysis. The results clearly show that the $TiO_2$ particles were homogenously coated with $Bi_2S_3$ particles, indicating that $Bi_2S_3$ particle agglomeration was effectively inhibited after the introduction of anatase $TiO_2$. The Texbrite BA-L (TBA) degradation rate constant for $Bi_2S_3/TiO_2$ composites reached $8.27{\times}10^{-3}min^{-1}$ under visible light, much higher than the corresponding value of $1.04{\times}10^{-3}min^{-1}$ for $TiO_2$. The quantities of generated hydroxyl radicals can be analyzed by DPCI degradation, which shows that under visible light irradiation, more electron-hole pairs can be generated. Finally, the possible mechanism for the generation of reactive oxygen species under visible-light irradiation was proposed as well. Our result shows the significant potential of $Bi_2S_3$-semiconductor-based $TiO_2$ hybrid materials as catalysts under visible light for the degradation of industry dye effluent substances.

In the present study, carbon supports mixed with purified multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) and carbon blacks (CBs) were used to improve the cell performance of direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs). Additionally, the effect of $O_2$ plasma treatment on CBs/MWNTs supports was investigated for different plasma RF powers of 100, 200, and 300 W. The surface and structural properties of the CBs/MWNTs supports were characterized by FT-IR, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and inductive coupled plasma-mass spectrometer (ICP-MS). The electrocatalytic activity of PtRu/CBs/MWNTs catalysts was investigated by cyclic voltammetry measurement. In the experimental results, the oxygen functional groups of the supports were increased with increasing plasma RF power, while the average Pt particle size was decreased owing to the improvement of dispersibility of the catalysts. The electrochemical activity of the catalysts for methanol oxidation was gradually improved by the larger available active surface area, itself due to the introduction of oxygen functional groups. Consequently, it was found that $O_2$ plasma treatments could influence the surface properties of the carbon supports, resulting in enhanced electrocatalytic activity of the catalysts for DMFCs.

여러 가지 금속이온이 치환된 제올라이트에서 벤젠의 촉매연소 반응에 대해 연구하였다. 사용한 제올라이트 중 Y(4.8)형 제올라이트가 가장 높은 활성을 보여주었고, Y(4.8)형 제올라이트에 치환된 금속 이온 중 구리이온이 가장 높은 활성을 보여주었다. 촉매의 활성은 산소 TPD에 의해 얻어진 흡착산소의 양에 비례하였다. Cu/Y(4.8) 촉매에서 Cu 이온의 농도가 커질수록 반응활성이 증가하였다. 벤젠의 연소반응의 전환율은 반응물 중 벤젠의 농도보다는 산소 농도의 영향을 많이 받았다. 또한, 반응물에 첨가된 물은 촉매 활성을 감소시켰다.

Activated carbon has lower electrical conductivity and reliability than other carbonaceous materials because of the oxygen functional groups that form during the activation process. This problem can be overcome by doping the material with heteroatoms to reduce the number of oxygen functional groups. In the present study, N, F co-doped activated carbon (AC-NF) was successfully prepared by a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method, utilizing commercial activated carbon (AC-R) as the precursor and ammonium tetrafluoroborate as the single source for the co-doping of N and F. AC-NF showed improved electrical conductivity ($3.8\;S\;cm^{-1}$) with N and F contents of 0.6 and 0.1 at%, respectively. The introduction of N and F improved the performance of the pertinent supercapacitor: AC-NF exhibited an improved rate capability at current densities of $0.5-50mA\;cm^{-2}$. The rate capability was higher compared to that of raw activated carbon because N and F codoping increased the electrical conductivity of AC-NF. The developed method for the co-doping of N and F using a single source is cost-effective and yields AC-NF with excellent electrochemical properties; thus, it has promising applications in the commercialization of energy storage devices.

The $Li-O_2$ battery has been attracting much attention recently, due to its very high theoretical capacity compared with Li-ion chemistries. Nevertheless, several studies within the last few years revealed that Li-ion derived electrolytes based on alkyl carbonate solvents, which have been commonly used in the last 27 years, are irreversibly consumed at the $O_2$ electrode. Accordingly, more stable electrolytes are required capable to operate with both the Li metal anode and the $O_2$ cathode. Thus, due to their favorable properties such as non volatility, chemical inertia, and favorable behavior toward the Li metal electrode, ionic liquid-based electrolytes have gathered increasing attention from the scientific community for its application in $Li-O_2$ batteries. However, the scale-up of Li-$O_2$ technology to real application requires solving the mass transport limitation, especially for supplying oxygen to the cathode. Hence, the 'LABOHR' project proposes the introduction of a flooded cathode configuration and the circulation of the electrolyte, which is then used as an oxygen carrier from an external $O_2$ harvesting device to the cathode for freeing the system from diffusion limitation.

Power generation systems based on the oxy-coal combustion with carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) capability are being proposed and discussed lately. Although a large number of lab scale studies for oxy-coal power plant have been made, studies of pilot scale or commercial scale power plant are not enough. Only a few demonstration projects for oxy-coal power plant are publicized recently. The proposed systems are evolving and various alternatives are to be comparatively evaluated. This paper presents a proposed approach for performance evaluation of a commercial 100 MWe class power plant, which is currently being considered for 'retrofitting' for the demonstration of the concept. The system is configurated based on design and operating conditions with proper assumptions. System components to be included in the discussion are listed. Evaluation criteria in terms of performance are summarized based on the system heat and mass balance and simple performance parameters, such as the fuel to power efficiency and brief introduction of the second law analysis. Also, gas composition is identified for additional analysis to impurities in the system including the purity of oxygen and unwanted gaseous components of nitrogen, argon and oxygen in air separation unit and $CO_2$ processing unit.

본 연구의 목적은 양식장 배출수 내에 포함된 5종의 항생제(tetracycline, doxycycline, oxytetracycline, clindamycin 및 erythromycin)를 제거하기 위해 사용한 수중 비열 유전체장벽 방전 플라즈마(Dielectric Barrier Discharge plasma, DBD plasma) 장치 안으로 공기와 산소를 각각 주입했을 때 항생제의 제거효율을 비교하는 것이다. DBD plasma를 발생시키기 위해서 주어진 전압은 27.8 kV이었고, 처리간격은 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 및 32분이었다. 3종의 tetracycline계 항생제는 공기를 주입했을 때는 4분만에 유의하게 감소하였고, 산소를 주입했을 때는 30초만에 유의성을 나타내었다. 32분째 공기와 산소를 각각 주입한 결과, tetracycline은 78.1%와 95.8%, doxycycline은 77.1%와 96.3% 그리고 oxytetracycline은 77.1%와 95.5% 감소하였다. Clindamycin은 공기를 주입했을 때 59.6%가 감소되었고, 산소는 83.0% 감소되었다. 또한, erythromycin은 공기주입 시 53.3%가 감소되었고 산소 주입 시 74.3%가 감소하여 두 항생제 모두 tetracycline계 항생제보다 낮은 제거 효율을 보였다. 결론적으로 수중 DBD plasma는 양식장 배출수 내에 포함된 5종의 항생제를 감소시킬 수 있고, 제거 효율은 공기보다 산소를 주입하는 것이 더 효과적이다.

To study the effect of oxyfluorination on water dispersion of phthalocyanine blue(C.I. pigment blue 15:3), the pigment was oxyfluorinated using various oxygen to fluorine ratio of the reactant gas. After the oxyfluorination of the phthalocyanine blue pigment, no significant change in FT-IR spectra was observed, whereas XPS spectra showed the introduction of oxygen and fluorine containing functional groups. This suggests that the oxyfluorination of the pigment only occurred on the surface of the pigment particle and resulted in no significant change in UV-Vis spectra of the pigment. However, the oxyflurinated pigments showed improved water dispersion, compared to the non-treated pigment. Especially, when the oxygen to fluorine ratio was 47:3, the water dispersion of the oxyfluorinated pigments significantly increased, compared to the non-treated pigments. This suggests that the oxyfluorination of the phthalocyanine blue pigment has a potential to be used as a water dispersion improving method.

오존 처리된 저밀도 폴리에틸렌 (LDPE) 필름의 표면 작용기와 표면 자유에너지에 대하여 고찰하였다. 오존 표면처리 조건을 각각 처리시간, 오존 생산량, 그리고 오존의 농도로 변화시켰으며, 오존 처리된 LDPE 필름 표면에 도입된 작용기는 FTIR-ATR과 XPS 분석을 통하여 알아보았다 LDPE 필름의 표면 자유에너지는 접촉각 측정을 통하여 고찰하였다. 실험결과, 오존으로 표면처리된 LDPE 픽름은 표면에 형성된 산소 함유 작용기로 인하여 물 접촉각이 15$^{\circ}$ 정도 감소하였고, 그 결과 표면 자유에너지의 증가및 $O_{IS}$ / $C_{IS}$ 의 증가를 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 표면 자유에너지와 산소 함유 작용기는 오존 표면처리 시간과 오존의 농도에 비례하는 관계를 보인 반면, 오존의 총 발생량의 변화는 표면 자유에너지 및 $O_{IS}$ / $C_{IS}$ 의 증가와는 무관하였다. Kubelka-Munk 식을 이용한 염색성 측정 결과로부터, 오존 표면처리는 LDPE 필름 표면에 산소 작용기를 형성시키는데 중요한 역할을 하는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 최종 염기성 염료에의 염색성을 향상시켰다.
