자원 재활용 및 에너지 생산관점에서 폐유지로부터 환경친화적인 연료인 바이오디젤에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히 폐유지내 함유된 유리지방산 및 수분에 의해 효율적인 에스테르화 반응이 어렵기 때문에 이를 전처리 단계에서 제거되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 폐유지내 유리지방산을 효과적으로 제거하기 위하여 회분식 반응기에서 제올라이트 촉매의 종류에 의한 세공구조와 산성도 변화에 따른 유리지방산 전환반응에 미치는 영향을 조사해 보았다. 제올라이트 촉매의 유리지방산 전환율은 세공구조와 산성도에 따라 큰 차이를 나타내었다. 유리지방산 전환율은 FAU < MOR < MFI < BEA의 순으로 높았다. 제올라이트의 세공구조는 1차원적인 구조를 가질 경우 탄소침적이 일어나지만 3차원적인 세공구조를 가지는 경우 탄소침적에 의한 촉매의 활성저하가 감소된다. 또한 제올라이트의 산성도에 따른 특성으로는 유리지방산의 전환반응에는 중간정도의 산세기를 가진 촉매가 유리함을 확인하였다. 그러므로 폐유지로부터 유리지방산을 제거하기 위한 우수한 제올라이트 촉매로는 BEA 제올라이트 촉매임을 확인하였다.

The production of lower olefins from methanol becomes an attractive process because of the rapid increase in crude oil price. This paper reivews the conversion mechanisms of methanol to hydrocarbons over zeolite and SAPO molecular sieve catalysts to understand the formation steps of lower olefins from methanol. The feasibility of the conversion mechanisms such as the direct mechanism based on well-defined intermediates and the hydrocarbon pool mechanism involving hydrocarbon moieties as an active centers is discussed with reepect to the induction period, the selectivity for products and the deactivation phenomena of the methanol conversion. The literature appeered since 1999 for the structure of the hydrocarbon pool and its catalytic role in the methanol conversion are summariged, and the prospect for the methanol-to-olefins process is described.

Titanium and zirconium-containing MFI type zeolites have been prepared hydrothermally. Incorporation of titanium or zirconium into the framework of zeolite has been demonstrated by XRD, FT-IR, $^{29}Si$ MAS NMR analysis, and the catalytic benzene hydroxylation or n-hexane oxidation was used for checking the properties of catalysts. Pure titania and zirconia powder showed no catalytic activity at all for these reactions but Ti and Zr modified zeolite had the high activities in both reactions. The catalytic activity strongly depended on the kind of solvents, and the conversion of benzene or n-hexane increased with the increasing content of Ti and Zr in zeolites.

Zeolites with different structures were synthesized from the hydrothermal synthesis condition employing simple structure directing agent (SDA) containing piperidine moiety. The gel containing $1.0SiO_2$:0.9SDA:$0.062NaAlO_2$:0.217NaOH:$20H_2O$ was subject to hydrothermal synthesis at 413~453 K for 7 days. FER type zeolite was obtained at 433 K when piperidine was employed as SDA, whereas TON and MFI type zeolites were also obtained at 433 K when 2,6-dimethylpiperidine and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine were used, respectively. Further increase of hydrothermal synthesis temperature to 453 K resulted in the formation of TON type zeolite when 2-mtheylpiperidine was used. The structural analysis of powder X ray diffraction pattern over FER type zeolite suggested that the SDA, piperidine interacted intimately with the zeolite where it located close to the framework.

The effect of channel-system of zeolite on methanol-to-DME reaction was studied. Results revealed that channels size and topology affect catalyst lifetime, type and location of coke precursors. FER and MFI showed the best resistance towards coke deposition, whilst fast deactivation was observed on MOR. Although the higher concentration and strength of acid sites, FER structure formed a lower coke amount, preferably located within the pores, while coke cluster deposited on the external surface of MOR. Analysis of acid sites distribution and strength was performed during deactivation-regeneration process. Coke location assessment was also supported by molecular simulations.

Highly-siliceous dealuminated zeolite, silicalite(end member of ZSM-5) was synthesized from a batch composition of 2.55 $Na_2O-5.0$ TPABr-$100SiO_2-2800H_2O $ at $180^{\circ}C$ and at times ranging from one to seven days of reaction time. Autoclaves containing the synthesis mixture were centrifuged within the specially-equipped convection oven to provide an elevated gravitational force field like 30 and 50 G. Tests were also conducted at normal gravity. For synthesis performed under elevated gravities, average and maximum crystal sizes were substantially greater than those synthesized under normal gravity and product yields were also found to be affected by elevated gravity ; that is, product yields were substantially enhanced under elevated gravity from 4 % to 55 % with respect to normal gravity. The average crystal sizes of silicalite synthesized at normal gravity were 50 to $70{\mu}m$ over an entire range of reaction time, one to seven days while the average crystal sizes synthsized under elevated gravities, 30 and 50 G, were 160 to $190{\mu}m$ respectively. For the elevated gravity, in particular, two separate nucleations and growths were observed. For examples, at 50G, large crystals of $200{\mu}m$ were produced through the second growing stage after 5 days of reaction following the rapid first growing stage where fairly large crystals of $135{\mu}m$ were produced only in 2 days of reaction. The maximum crystal sizes obtained through the above two growing stages were 190 and $300{\mu}m$, respectively. A discussion of how elevated gravity affects nucleation, growth, yield and crystal size of silicalite is presented.

In this study, separation of ethylbenzene from mixed xylene was performed by using TS-1 zeolite membrane. TS-1 zeolite membranes were prepared by microwave synthesis and changing the reaction temperature. MFI-type TS-1 membranes are synthesized on alumina tubes by functional coating using 3-chloropropyltrimethoxysilane (3CP-TMS). On top surface of interlayer, nano TS-1 crystals were seeded. To form interlayer, microwave-assisted growth of TS-1 zeolite was carried out and thin zeolite layers were produced. All of the prepared membranes are tested to separate ethylbenzene from mixed xylene at different operating temperatures. TS-1 membrane with zeolite seed synthesized at $170^{\circ}C$ compared to 120, $140^{\circ}C$ shows the best ethylbenzene separation at the operation temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ from ternary mixed xylene containing certain composition of ethylbenzene/p-xylene/m-xylene. (separation factor : 2.64, ethylbenzene flux : 1703.0 mol/$m^2{\cdot}s{\cdot}Pa$).

Propylene epoxidation by $H_2O_2$ (30％ aqueous) as oxidant was studied in a semi-batch reactor using TS-1 catalyst: Effects of reaction temperature, time, pressure, solvent, catalyst and $H_2O_2$ concentration on $H_2O_2$ conversion (limiting reagent) and product distribution were investigated. Potential inhibition by propylene oxide on the epoxidation rate was also examined. Ti-MCM-22 with MWW zeolytic structure was found to exhibit better performance than TS-1 with MFI structure, provide that a proper choice of solvent(acetonitrile) is made.
