A series of experiments using atmospheric-pressure non-thermal plasma coupled with transition metal catalysts were performed to remove ethylene from agricultural storage facilities. The non-thermal plasma was created by dielectric barrier discharge, which was in direct contact with the catalyst pellets. The transition metals such as Ag and $V_2O_5$ were supported on ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$. The effect of catalyst type, specific input energy (SIE) and oxygen content on the removal of ethylene was examined to understand the behavior of the hybrid plasma-catalytic reactor system. With the other parameters kept constant, the plasma-catalytic activity for the removal of ethylene was in order of $V_2O_5/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ > $Ag/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ > ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ from high to low. Interestingly, the rate of plasma-catalytic ozone generation was in order of $V_2O_5/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ > ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ > $Ag/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$, implying that the catalyst activation mechanisms by plasma are different for different catalysts. The results obtained by varying the oxygen content indicated that nitrogen-derived reactive species dominated the removal of ethylene under oxygen-lean condition, while ozone and oxygen atoms were mainly involved in the removal under oxygen-rich condition. When the plasma was coupled with $V_2O_5/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$, nearly complete removal of ethylene was achieved at oxygen contents higher than 5% by volume (inlet ethylene: 250 ppm; gas flow rate: $1.0Lmin^{-1}$; SIE: ${\sim}355JL^{-1}$).

본 연구에서는 휘발성 유기 화합물의 촉매연소에 의한 제거 반응에 대하여 조사 하였다. 촉매와 VOC의 접촉형태(공간속도 및 촉매층의 높이)에 따라 완전연소온도가 조금씩 달라지며 공간속도(SV)는 처리가스의 유량(Q, $m^3/hr$)을 촉매 층의 부피(V,$m^3$)로 나눈 값(SV=Q/V)을 나타내는 값으로, 촉매연소 장치에서는 보통 $10,000{\sim}50,000hr^{-1}$을 유지한다 열교환기를 통한 VOC는 수소염 이온화 검출기를 통하여 농도를 측정하였으며 반응온도는 373K-423K에서 촉매를 활성화 시켜 VOC 농도의 제거효율을 측정하였다. 농도측정은 100회 이상하여 제거효율을 조사 하였다. 자동차 도장시설에서 VOC 배출농도는 63.37 ppm 이며 373K 촉매 활성시 제거율은 평균 70% 이며 423K 촉매 활성시 제거효율은 78.92% 이었다. 반응농도가 증가할수록 제거효율은 증가하는 경향이었다.

평균입자크기가 200 ${\mu}m$인 코디어라이트 분말을 사용하여 다공성 필터를 제조한 후, 진공함침법으로 $V_2O_5$, CuO, $LaCoO_3$ 촉매를 담지시킨 후 NO와 $SO_2$ 기체를 촉매 담지 세라믹필터에 동시 통과시키면서 NOx/SOx의 동시제거효율을 측정하였다. 제조된 다공성 필터의 기공률은 61.6%였고, 압축강도는 12.3 MPa이었으며, 면속도 5 cm/sec에서의 차압은 147 Pa이었다. NO와 $SO_2$의 동시제거효율을 분석해 본 결과, 페로브스카이트계 $LaCoO_3$ 촉매의 동시제거효율이 가장 우수함을 확인하였으며, $LaCoO_3$ 촉매의 NO에 대한 제거효율은 90% 이상, $SO_2$에 대해서는 80% 이상이었다.

본 연구에서는, 촉매 악취 제거 반응에서 폐제올라이트 촉매를 담체로 재사용할 수 있는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 악취 분해의 모델 반응을 위하여 톨루엔을 반응 물질로 선정하였다. 폐 HZSM-5와 폐 FCC촉매에 구리를 10 wt%담지 시켜, 활성을 비교하였다. 그 결과, Cu/폐 FCC 촉매보다 Cu/폐 HZSM-5가 더 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 이는 폐 HZSM-5가 폐 FCC 촉매보다 표면적이 더 크고, Cu를 담지한 촉매에서도 더 큰 표면적을 나타낸 것에 기인한 것으로 여겨진다. 이러한 결과들은 폐 HZSM-5가 톨루엔 제거에 값싼 촉매로 이용될 수 있음을 보여준다.

In order to apply the photocatalytic decomposition of aromatic VOCs, adsorbent prepared from MSWI fly ash was coated by $TiO_2$ solution to endow with photo-catalytic function. The effects of coating number, existence of light source and the type of $TiO_2$ solution used for coating were examined. Adsorbent coated with amorphous $TiO_2$ solution showed higher adsorptivity than adsorbent coated with crystal $TiO_2$ solution. Without light source, breakthrough curve of photo -catalyst absorbent for VOCs removal was similar to that of absorbent made from MSWI fly ash. On the other hand, breakthrough time was enlarged with light source and total removal efficiency of benzene and toluene was also increased. It can be explained as photo-decomposition effect of $TiO_2$ photo-catalyst. Total removal efficiency of benzene and toluene was increased according to the increase of coating number with light source. It was due to the effect of adsorption and photo reaction of photo-catalytic adsorbent. But total removal efficiency of benzene was lower than that of toluene. Because benzene was removed more effectively than toluene by adsorption, but photo - decomposition effect oi toluene was more high than benzene.

PCB (poly chlorinated biphenyl)의 재생성문제를 해결하기 위해 PCB가 재생성되지 않는 $220^{\circ}C$ 이내의 온도에서 PCB를 90% 이상 효과적으로 분해할 수 있는 저온활성이 우수한 촉매에 대해 연구 하였다. 기존의 백필터에 저온활성이 우수한 PCB 제거용 촉매를 코팅하여 분진 및 PCB를 동시에 제거 가능한 백필터 여과재를 얻고자 하였다. 촉매 반응 후 벤젠고리가 분해되어 PCB가 재생성될 수 없음을 확인하였다. 그리고 spray법에 의한 촉매코팅이 함침법에 의한 코팅보다 효과적이었으며, Pt-Co 촉매를 사용하였을 때가 PCB 제거율이 가장 높았다. 본 연구를 잘 활용한다면 기존의 소각로에서 사용되던 기존 백필터를 촉매 여과재로 교체만 하여도 분진과 PCB를 동시에 효율적으로 제거할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

대표적인 비암모니아성 선택적 촉매환원반응기인 H₂-SCR의 활용성을 높이기 위하여 Ce를 조촉매로 활용한 PtNi/CeO₂-W-TiO₂의 촉매 분말을 합성하고 다공성 금속 구조(porous metal structure, PMS)에 코팅하여 선택적 촉매 환원에 의한 NOx 제거 특성을 평가하였다. CeO₂를 조촉매로 사용한 H₂-SCR은 CeO₂를 사용하지 않은 경우에 비해 더 높은 NOx 제거 효율을 나타내었으며, CeO₂ 담지율 10 wt%에서는 반응온도 90℃에서 가장 높은 제거효율을 보였다. 한편, 촉매구조체인 PMS의 촉매 코팅량이 증가함에 따라 NOx 제거효율은 90℃ 이하에서는 향상되었으나, 120℃ 이상에서는 감소하는 경향을 보였고 공간속도를 4,000 h^-1에서 20,000 h^-1로 변경한 경우, 120℃이상의 온도에서 NOx 제거 효율이 향상되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

An EBeam (electron beam)-catalyst coupling technique has been developed to control aromatic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by annexing the catalyst with already existing EBeam technology. In this study, toluene emitted from various industrial coating processes was selected as a representative VOC. The concentration of toluene of concern was 200 ppm. There was an increase in the removal efficieny of toluene by increasing the absorbed dose (kGy) in the EBeam-only and the EBeam-catalyst coupling systems. Compared to EBeam-only system under the same existing EBeam-Pt $1\%$ coupling conditions, EBeam-Pt $1\%$ coupling system revealed 36, 29, 30$\%$ increase in toluene treatmenet at (5, 6.7, 8.7 kGy), respectively. In addition, $O_{3}$ was decreased and CO, $CO_{2}$ were increased by increasing the absorbed dose (kGy) in the EBeam-catalyst (Pt $1\%$, Cu $1\%$) coupling systems. Therefore, it was concluded that the EBeam-catalyst coupling system had a synergy effect on toluene control, compared to the EBeam-only system.

Removal teals of Soxmox were performed using low density ceramic filters doped with various catalysts. Disc type (50 mmO.Dx10 mmt) low density ceramic filters were doped with three different catalysts such as Cu to remove SOx and NOx, and Mn and Co to remove NOx. The air permeabilities and specific surface areas were 40~50cc/min.cm2.cmH2O and 4.1~8.88 m2/g, respectively. Also, the peak pore sizes of catalyst support were 3~5nm. Tests were focused to search optimum operating temperatures for different catalysts. It was found that as the CuO content increases, SOx removal efficiency was increased. NOx removal efficiencies for Mn, Cu and Co, were 85% at 30$0^{\circ}C$, 90% at 40$0^{\circ}C$ and 90% at 45$0^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Acetic acid can be removed from wastewater by esterification in a membrane reactor. Pervaporation membrane reactor (PVMR) is an alternative process to conventional separation processes. It is an environmentally friendly process. The main advantages of the PVMR are simultaneous water removal and production of an ester economically. In this study, the synthetic wastewater has been used. Esterification reaction of acetic acid with isopropanol has been studied in the presence of tungstosilicic acid hydrate as a catalyst in a batch reactor and in a PVMR. The effects of important operating parameters such as reaction temperature, initial molar ratio of isopropanol to acetic acid and catalyst concentration has been examined. Removal of acetic acid (conversion of acetic acid) was obtained as 85% using a PVMR by removal of water from the reaction mixture.
