Ozone has been a problem in big cities. That is secondary air pollutant produced by nitrogen oxide and VOCs in the atmosphere. In order to solve this, the first to be the analysis of the $NO_x$ and VOCs. The main source of nitrogen oxide is the road mobile. Industrial sources in Seoul are particularly low, and mobile traffics on roads are large, so 45% of total $NO_x$ are estimated that road mobile emissions in Seoul. Thus, it is necessary to clarify the relation with the activity of road mobile source and $NO_x$ concentration. In this study, we analyzed the 4 locations with roadside automatic monitoring systems in their center. The V.K.T. calculating areas are set in circles with 50 meter spacing, 50 meter to 500 meter from their center. We assumed the total V.K.T. in the set radius affect the $NO_x$ concentration in the center. We used the hourly $NO_x$ concentrations data for the 4 observation points in July for the interference of the other sources are minimized. We used the intersection traffic survey data of all direction for construction of the V.K.T. data, the mobile activities on the roads. ArcGIS application was used for calculating the length of roads in the set radius. The V.K.T. data are multiplied by segment traffic volume and length of roads. As a result, the $NO_x$ concentration can be expressed as linear function formula for V.K.T. with high predictive power. Moreover we separated background concentration and concentrations due to road mobile source. These results can be used for forecasting the effect of traffic demand management plan.

In particular, gas sensors require characteristics such as high speed, sensitivity, and selectivity. In this study, we fabricated a $NO_X$ gas sensor by using a multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/zinc oxide (ZnO) composite film. The fabricated MWCNT/ZnO gas sensor was then treated by a $450^{\circ}C$ temperature process to increase its detection sensitivity for NOx gas. We compared the detection characteristics of a ZnO film gas sensor, MWCNT film gas sensor, and the MWCNT/ZnO composited film gas sensor with and without the heat-treatment process. The fabricated gas sensors were used to detect $NO_X$ gas at different concentrations. The gas sensor absorbed $NO_X$ gas molecules, exhibiting increased sensitivity. The sensitivity of the gas sensor was increased by increasing the gas concentration. Additionally, while changing the temperature inside the chamber for the MWCNT/ZnO composite film gas sensor, we obtained its sensitivity for detecting $NO_X$ gas. Compared with ZnO, the MWCNT film gas sensor is excellent for detecting $NO_X$ gas. From the experimental results, we confirmed the enhanced gas sensor sensing mechanism. The increased effect by electronic interaction between the MWCNT and ZnO films contributes to the improved sensor performance.

선택적환원 반응용 활성탄 촉매는 액정디스플레이 제조 공정에서 배출되는 붕소를 포함하는 배가스 중의 $NO_x$를 제거하는데 사용되는데, 붕소가 촉매의 세공을 막거나 활성점에 침적되어 촉매 비활성화가 발생하게 된다. 폐촉매는 다양한 계면활성제를 포함하는 수용액 중에서의 세정, 건조 및 소성에 의해 재생이 가능하였다. 세정 과정의 조건, 계면 활성제 종류, 소성 조건 등을 변화시키면서 재생 전과 후의 폐촉매의 물리화학적 성능 비교를 위하여 질소 흡착 실험, ICP에 의한 원소 분석을 수행하였다. 암모니아를 사용하는 선택적환원 반응은 고정층 촉매 반응기를 사용하여 $120^{\circ}C$에서 수행하였다. $90^{\circ}C$의 수용액에서 비이온 계면활성제를 사용하여 세정하고, 질소 분위기에서 $550^{\circ}C$에서 소성하여 재생한 활성탄 촉매는 붕소가 가장 많이 제거되어 신규 활성탄과 유사한 수준의 표면적과 $NO_x$ 제거 효율을 회복하였다.

We have studied the reduction of NO by propane over perovskite-type oxides prepared by malic acid method. The catalysts were modified to enhance the activity by substitution by substitution of metal into A or B site of perovskite oxides. In addition, the reaction conditions, such as temperature, $O_2$ concentration, space velocity have been studed. In the $LaCoO_3$ type catalyst, the partial substitution of Ba, Sr into A site enhanced the catalytic activity in the reduction of NO. In the $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{1-x}Fe_xO_3(x=0 \sim 1.9)$ catalyst, the partial substitution of Fe into B site enhanced the conversion of NO, but excess amount of Fe decreased the conversion of NO. The surface area and catalytic activity of perovskite catalysts prepared by malic acid method showed higher values than those of solid reaction method. In the $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{1-x}Fe_xO_3$ catalyst, the conversion of NO increased with increasing $O_2$ concentration and contact time. The introduction of water into reactant feed decreased the catalytic activity.

In a view of capturing $CO_2$ as a greenhouse gas, an experimental study was conducted on the combustion characteristics of pulverized coal in $O_2$/$CO_2$ environment using TGA/DSC and DTF facilities. The effects of gas composition and concentration on the processes of devolatilization and char burning experienced by coal particles in combustion furnace and on the concentration of products such as $CO_2$, CO and $NO_x$ were observed using TGA/DSC and DTF respectively. As results, it were found that the rate of devolitilation is nearly independent on the $O_2$ concentration if it is over 20% but the char burning rate is a sensitive function of $O_2$ percent, and the two rates can be controlled by $O_2$ concentration in order to be similar with those of air combustion case. It was also found that high concentration $CO_2$ can be captured by oxy-coal combustion and high concentration of CO and low value of $NO_x$ are exhausted in that case. Additionally, NO reducing reaction by CO with char as catalyst was observed and a meaningful results were obtained.

$V_2O_5/TiO_2$계 촉매상에서 $NH_3$에 의한 $NO_x$의 선택적환원은 310의 지구온난화지수를 갖는 $N_2O$의 또 다른 인위적인 배출원이 될 수 있는 것으로 보고되고 있으므로, 본 총설은 화석연료를 연소시키는 화력발전소용 상기 촉매상에서 SCR 탈질반응 동안에 $N_2O$ 생성과 관계되는 주요 변수들의 유의성을 다루고자 한다. $NH_3$-SCR 탈질반응에서 $N_2O$ 배출은 $NH_3$ 산화반응에 더하여 반응 중에 존재하는 $NO_x$와 $NH_3$ 간의 부반응을 통해 일어나 이 부반응들의 정도는 SCR 촉매의 활성성분인 $V_2O_5$의 함량과 조촉매의 종류($WO_3$와 $MoO_3$), 반응온도, $NO_2/NO_x$ 비율, 산소농도, 공간속도, 수분함량, 열처리 등과 같은 유입가스 조건과 운전변수 및 화력발전소 현장에 설치된 상용 SCR 탈질공정에서 격은 촉매의 이력에 크게 의존한다. 상기의 모든 변수들이 탈질반응에서 $N_2O$ 생성과 관계된다고 할지라도, 몇몇 핵심변수들이 $N_2O$ 생성에 미치는 영향과 상용 SCR 공정에서 $N_2O$ 생성을 억제할 수 있는 방안이 고찰되었다.

In this study, the selective catalytic reduction of $NO_x$ with ammonia was carried out in a filter bag support reactor. The experiments were performed by powder type $MnO_x$ and $V_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ catalyst at low temperature between 130 and $250^{\circ}C$. Also, the effect of $SO_2$ and $H_2O$ on the NO conversion was investigated under our test conditions. The powder type catalysts were analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS), X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). It was observed that NO removal efficiency of the powder type $V_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ catalyst was 85% at low temperature($200^{\circ}C$) under presence of oxygen and that of $MnO_x$ was 50% at the same condition. The powder type $V_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ catalyst, in conclusion, was found to be available for SCR reaction in a filter bag support system.

$De-NO_x$ transition metals(Cu, Co)/ZSM-5 catalyst was made by mechanical alloying method, and their microstructures and repeated usage-properties were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The conversions ability of NO in the catalyst was measured. A part of ZSM-5 in CO/ZSM-5 composite powders was amorphous and the amorphous phase became less stable with increasing Co content. Conversion ability of NO in 10Cu/ZSM-5 powders decreased from 89% to 12% and that in 10Co/ZSM-5 decreased from 22% to 17% by 7 times conversion tests.

Empty fruit bunch (EFB) char was used to remove $NO_x$ and odorous substances. The physicochemical properties of the EFB chars were altered by steam or KOH treatments. The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area and porosity were measured to determine the properties of the modified EFB chars. The $deNO_x$ and adsorption test for hydrogen sulphide and acetaldehyde were performed to determine the feasibility of the modified EFB chars. The KOH-treated EFB (KEFB) char revealed higher $deNO_x$ efficiency than with commercial activated carbon. The Cu-impregnated EFB char also had high $deNO_x$ efficiency at temperatures higher than $150^{\circ}C$. The KEFB char showed the highest hydrogen sulphide and acetaldehyde adsorption ability, followed by the steam-treated EFB char and untreated EFB char. Moreover, the product prepared by sulfonation of EFB char showed excellent performance for esterification of palm fatty acid distillate for biodiesel production.
