초록

친환경자동차의 보급 확대를 위한 정책수립과 기술개발이 지속적으로 이루어지고 있는 실정이나 아직까지도 내연기관이 차지하는 비중은 약 95% 차지하고 있다. 화석연료를 기반으로 하는 내연기관의 엄격한 배기가스규제를 충족시키기 위해 자동차와 선박용 후처리장치의 비중이 점차로 증가하고 있다. 천연가스는 대기환경 오염물질을 거의 배출하지 않는 청정연료이며, 주로 시내버스의 연료로 사용되어져 왔다. CNG 버스의 보급률이 계속적으로 증가하고 있으며 이에 대한 엄격한 배기규제를 충족시키고 경제적인 후처리장치의 연구개발이 필요하다. 장기적인 연구로는, CNG 버스에서 배출되는 유독성가스인 $CH_4$와 NOx를 동시저감시키는 새로운 NGOC/LNT+NGOC/SCR 복합시스템을 개발하는 것이다. 이 연구는 복합시스템 후단에 장착되는 선택적인촉매환원(SCR)의 washcoat를 세라믹과 메탈 담체에 코팅하여 $de-CH_4/NOx$ 특성을 파악하는 것이다. V, Cu-SCR 촉매는 $CH_4$ 산화반응에는 영향을 미치지 않고, 이중층으로 코팅된 2, 4번 NGOC/SCR 촉매는 $400^{\circ}C$에서 $CH_4$가 산화되기 시작하여 약 $550^{\circ}C$에서는 약 20% 수준으로 $CH_4$가 저감되었다. NGOC/SCR처럼 two layer로 코팅된 2, 4번 SCR 촉매는 $350^{\circ}C$이상에서는 마이너스(-) NOx 전환률을 나타냈다. 이는 $ NH_4NO_3$(질산염)으로 흡장되어 있는 NOx가 촉매의 반응속도가 저하됨에 따라 $N_2$로 환원되지 못하고 $NO+NO_2$로 탈착되었기 때문이다. 세라믹 기반의 복합시스템은 $400^{\circ}C$에서 약 30%, $500^{\circ}C$에서 LOT50에 이르러 메탈 기반의 복합시스템보다 약 20% CH4 정화 성능이 높았고, NGOC/LNT+Cu-SCR 복합시스템 조합이 적합하다.

The policy-making and technological development of eco-friendly automobiles designed to increase their supply is ongoing, but the internal combustion engine still accounts for about 95% of the automobiles in use. Also, in order to meet the stricter emission regulations of internal combustion engines based on fossil fuels, the proportion of after-treatments for vehicles and (ocean going) vessels is gradually increasing. Natural gas is a clean fuel that emits few air pollutants and has been used mainly as a fuel for city buses. In the long term, we intend to develop a new NGOC/LNT+NGCO/SCR combined system that simultaneously reduces the toxic gases, $CH_4$ and NOx, emitted from CNG buses. The objective of this study is to investigate the characteristics of $de-CH_4/NOx$ according to the ceramic and metal substrates of the SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) catalysts mounted downstream of the combined system. The V and Cu-SCR catalysts did not affect the $CH_4$ oxidation reaction, the two NGOC/SCR catalysts each coated with two layers began to oxidize $CH_4$ at $400^{\circ}C$, and the amount of $CH_4$ emitted was reduced to about 20% of its initial value at about $550^{\circ}C$. The two NGOC/SCR catalysts each coated with two layers showed a negative (-) NOx conversion rate above $350^{\circ}C$. The ceramic-based combined system reached LOT50 at $500^{\circ}C$, which was about 20% higher in terms of the $CH_4$ conversion rate than the metal-based combined system, showing that the combined system of NGOC/LNT+Cu-SCR is a suitable combination.
