All the $Ni-Co-Ce-ZrO_2$ mixed oxides are prepared by co-precipitations methods. Methanation of CO and $H_2$ reaction is screened tested over different fractions of cerium (2, 4, 7 and 12 wt.%) over $Ni-Co/ZrO_2$ bimetallic catalysts are investigated. The mixed oxides are characterized by XRD, CO-Chemisorption, TGA and screened methanation of CO and $H_2$ at $360^{\circ}C$ for 3000 min on stream at typical ratio $CO:H_2=1:1$. In $Ni-Co/CeZrO_2$ series 2 wt.% Ce loading catalyst shows most promising catalyst for $CH_4$ selectivity than $CO_2$, which directs more stability with less coke formation. The high activity is attributed to the better bimetallic synergy and the well-developed crystalline phases of NiO, $ZrO_2$ and $Ce-ZrO_2$. Other bimetallic mixed oxides NCoZ, $NCoC^{4-12}Z$ has faster deactivation with low methanation activity. Finally, 2 wt.% Ce loading catalyst was found to be optimal coke resistant catalyst.

본 연구에서는 NO의 저온 SCR 반응에서 구리 첨가가 $Mn/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ 촉매의 활성에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 이를 위하여 $Mn/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ 촉매에 구리가 각각 5, 10, 15 wt% 첨가된 세가지 촉매의 활성을 조사하였다. 촉매의 특성은 BET, XRD, XPS, $H_2-TPR$을 통해 분석하였다. 구리가 첨가된 촉매의 질소산화물 저감 효율을 측정한 결과 Cu 농도가 증가할수록 활성이 증가하였으며 Cu 15 wt%가 담지하였을 경우 질소산화물 저감효율이 99%까지 도달하는 등 가장 높은 저감효율을 나타내었다. 이는 표면의 망간과 구리의 interaction에 의한 환원의 향상이 촉매 효율 증가의 원인으로 여겨진다.

$Ni/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ 촉매를 이용하여 수소 제조를 위한 메탄의 자열개질반응 특성을 조사하였다. 메탄의 자열개질반응에서 촉매의 활성과 안정성을 향상시키기 위해 알루미나가 코팅된 금속 모노리스를 사용하였으며, 금속모노리스 촉매체는 높은 반응온도에서 분말형태의 촉매에 비해 높은 메탄 전환율을 나타내었다. 자열개질반응에 있어서 $H_2O/CH_4/O_2$의 비는 전환율에 영향을 미치는 중요한 변수임을 알 수 있었다. $H_2O/CH_4$ 비가 증가함에 따라 수소 수율은 증가되고, 또한 $O_2/CH_4$ 비가 증가함에 따라 메탄 전환율은 증가하지만 수소 수율은 감소하였다. $Ni/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ 촉매에 0.5 wt%의 귀금속 촉매인 Ru 첨가로 인해 낮은 반응온도에서 촉매 활성이 향상되었다.

The electrical conductivities of the yttria (8mol%) stabilizedzirconia-ceria solid solutions were measured as a function of oxygen partial between 80$0^{\circ}C$ and 100$0^{\circ}C$ using 4-probe d.c. method Under pure oxygen atmosphere the oxygen ionic conductivity of CeO2-ZrO2 decreased with the concentration of CeO2 Under reducing condition electronic conduction due to the redox equilibrium of Ce ion was observed. Total ionic and electronic conductivities fitted by a defect model enabled to determine the electronic transference number(tei) which increased with the concentration of CeO2 and with the degree of reduction.

$Ni-La_2O_3-Ce_{0.8}Zr_{0.2}O_2$ catalysts with various $La_2O_3$ loading were investigated for hydrogen production from steam reforming of methane (SRM). The $La_2O_3$ loading influenced the physicochemical properties of $Ni-La_2O_3-Ce_{0.8}Zr_{0.2}O_2$ catalysts such as BET surface area, Ni dispersion, Ni size and reducibility. Among the prepared catalysts, $Ni-70La_2O_3-Ce_{0.8}Zr_{0.2}O_2$ catalyst showed the highest activity and stability at a very high gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) of $932,556h^{-1}$. This is mainly due to high Ni dispersion, small Ni size and high reducibility.

The Cu loading of a cubic $Ce_{0.8}Zr_{0.2}O_2$-supported Cu catalyst was optimized for a single-stage water gas shift (WGS) reaction. The catalyst was prepared by a co-precipitation method, and the WGS reaction was performed at a gas hourly space velocity of $150,494h^{-1}$. The results revealed that an 80 wt% $Cu-Ce_{0.8}Zr_{0.2}O_2$ catalyst exhibits excellent catalytic performance and 100% $CO_2$ selectivity ($X_{CO}=27%$ at $240^{\circ}C$ for 100 h). The high activity of 80 wt% $Cu-Ce_{0.8}Zr_{0.2}O_2$ catalyst is attributed to the presence of abundant surface Cu atoms and the low activation energy of the resultant process.

Two-step water splitting thermochemical cycle with $CeO_2$ foam device was investigated by using a solar simulator composed of 2.5 kW Xe-Arc lamp and mirror reflector. The hydrogen production of $CeO_2$ foam device depending on reaction temperature of Thermal-Reduction step and Water-Decomposition step was analyzed, and the hydrogen production of $CeO_2$ and $NiFe_2O_4/ZrO_2$ foam devices was compared. As a result, the amount of reduced $CeO_2$ considerably varies according to the reaction temperature of Thermal-Reduction step. and hydrogen production was not much when the amount of reduced $CeO_2$ decreased even if the reaction temperature of Water-Decomposition step was high. Therefore, it is very important to keep the reaction temperature of Thermal-Reduction step high in two-step thermochemical cycle with $CeO_2$.

Coprecipitation technique was used to synthesize ZrO2+12 mol% CeO2 powders with ZrOCl2.8H2O and Ce(NO3)3.6H2O as starting materials. The powders were dried on different conditions such as distilled water, ethanol, and azeotropic distillation. The powders prepared by azeotropic distillation showed weak aggregation of particles and the average particle size of powders calcined at 85$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour was 0.19 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The optimum sintering temperature and holding time are 130$0^{\circ}C$ and 2.5~10 hours, respectively. Beyond the optimum conditions, a phase transition from tetragonal to monoclinic causes to produce cracks in the sintered bodies and to decrease the density.

Y-TZP/Ce-TZP ceramics having relative sintered densities of>95% average grain sizes of 0.36$\mu\textrm{m}$ microhar-dness of 1150 kg/mm2 fracture strength of 390-830 MPa and toughness of 6.4-10.2 MPa$.$mm1/2 were prepared by conventional sintering of 3 mol% Y2O3-ZrO2 and 12 mol% CeO2-ZrO2 powders at 1400 and 1500$^{\circ}C$ The average grain sizes of Y-TZP/Ce-TZP ceramics were mainly governed by those of Ce-TZP. White increasing Ce-TZP content toughness increased while microhardness and fracture strength decreased. With comparing microhardness and toughness fracture strength was more sensitive on not only grain size but also other factors such as microstructural and compositional variations. The densification of Y-TZP/Ce-TZP cermaics was not greatly affected by composition and soaking time at temperature over 1400$^{\circ}C$ With increasing CE-TZP content the stability of t-ZrO2 decreased under thermal aging in air whereas increased in hydrothermal atmosphere and aqueous solution.

In the study, the total conductivies in [(Ce $O_2$)$_{1-x}$ (Zr $O_2$)$_{x}$]$_{0.8}$(Sm $O_{1.5}$)$_{0.2}$ (x- 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2) solid solution were measured as a function of temperature and oxygen partial pressure between 80$0^{\circ}C$ and 1,00$0^{\circ}C$ using 4-probe d.c method. Under pure oxygen atmospere, the oxygen ionic conductivity of [(Ce $O_2$)$_{1-x}$ (Zr $O_2$)$_{x}$]$_{0.8}$(Sm $O_{1.5}$)$_{0.2}$ decreased with the concentration of Zr $O_2$At high oxygen partial pressure, the electrical conductivity is almost independent of oxygen partial pressure and decreased with the increase in Zr content. However, the electrical conductivity increase with decreasing oxygen partial pressure and is almost independent of Zr content at low oxygen partial pressure. Empirically, Total conductivity( $\sigma$ ) was expressed by the p$o_{2}$ -independent conductivity as $\sigma$$_{i}$, and the $p_{-1/4}$ $o_{2}$sup -dependent part as $\sigma$$_{e}$. Total, ionic and electronic conductivities fitted by data enabled to determine the transference number. The ionic transference number( $t_{i}$ ) decreased while the electronic transference( $t_{e}$ ) increase with the increase in Zr content and p$o_{2}$.
