1세대 바이오디젤인 fatty acid methyl ester(FAME)의 문제점을 극복하기 위하여 많은 연구가 진행 중 이다. 소위 차세대 바이오디젤은 triglyceride의 산소 화합물을 제거하여 정유 공정을 통해 생산된 디젤과 동일한 특성을 지닌 탄화수소로 전환시킨 오일이다. 이를 위하여 수소를 첨가하여 산소를 제거 시키는 Hydrodeoxygenation(HDO) 반응이 필요하다. 고온($300-400^{\circ}C$), 고압(50-100 bar)의 혹독한 조건에서 높은 수율과 안정성을 보이는 촉매 개발이 필요하다. 이를 위하여 반응물중의 산소를 효과적으로 제거하기 위하여 산소 전달능이 뛰어난 $CeO_2$ 담체에 열안정성을 높이는 $ZrO_2$를 조합한 $Ce-ZrO_2$ 담체를 선정하였으며 수소첨가 탈산소 반응에 활성을 나타낼 것으로 예상되는 니켈을 활성성분으로 선정하였다. 본 연구에서는 15%Ni-$Ce_{(1-x)}Zr_{(x)}O_2$ ($0{\leq}x{\leq}1$)촉매를 공침법(co-precipitation)으로 제조하였으며 $500^{\circ}C$에서 소성하였다. 촉매 특성분석은 XRD, BET, H2-TPR을 이용하였다.

In order to improve the reactivity for the direct synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) using methanol and carbon dioxide, the various additives were used in the DMC synthesis using $Ce_{0.8}Zr_{0.2}O_2$ catalyst, and then effect of the additives was investigated. The various additives were molecular sieves 3A and the compounds having the various functional groups such as sulfate, carbonate, nitrate and phosphate. As a result, the compound such as $K_2SO_4$ and $Na_2SO_4$ having sulfate group were the most effective additive among the various additives. When $K_2SO_4$ was used as an additive in the direct synthesis of DMC, the amount of DMC was about 0.91 mmol, which was the highest mount of DMC among using only-$Ce_{0.8}Zr_{0.2}O_2$ catalyst and the various additives.

It was investigated that the structural and electrical Properties of Ce-doped Ba(Zr$_{x}$Ti$_{1-x}$ )O$_3$ (BCZT) thin films with a mole fraction of x=0.2 and a thickness about 100 nm. BCZT films were prepared on Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrate by a RF magnetron sputtering system. We have measured the thickness profile with Ar/O$_2$ ratio and the surface roughness. It was observed that the oxygen gas, which introduced during the film deposition, have an influence on the roughness of the film and the film roughness was reduced by annealing from 2.33 nm to 2.02 nm (RMS at 500 $^{\circ}C$, Ar:6 sccm, $O_2$:6 sccm). It was found that annealing procedure after top electrode deposit can reduce the dissipation factor.

The ceria powder is excellent in oxygen storage capacity (OSC) through the oxidation and reduction reaction of Ce ions and is used as a typical material for a three-way catalyst of an automobile which purifies the exhaust gas. However, since ceria generally has poor thermal stability at high temperatures, it is doped with metal ions to improve thermal stability. Therefore, in this study, Zr ions were doped into ceria powder, and their characteristics were further improved due to the increase of specific surface area with decreasing particle size due to doping. In this study, the synthesis of zirconium doped ceria nanopowder was synthesized by hydrothermal process. In order to synthesis Zr ion doped ceria nanopowder, the precursor reaction at was $200^{\circ}C$ for 6 hours. The average particle size of synthesized Zr doped $CeO_2$ nanopowder was below 20 nm. The specific surface area of synthesized Zr ion doped ceria nanopowder increased from $52.03m^2/g$ to $132.27m^2/g$ with Zr increased 30 %.

The catalytic behavior of $Ni/Ce_XZr_{(1-X)}O_2$ loaded on the alumina coated honeycomb monolith was studied for the autothermal reforming reaction of methane. Among the catalysts with the different Ce/Zr ratios, the $Ni/Ce_{0.80}Zr_{0.20}O_2$ Catalyst showed the highest conversion of methane. By investigating the effect of Ni content on the $Ni/Ce_{0.80}Zr_{0.20}O_2$ catalysts, the catalyst loaded with 15wt% Ni had the highest activity. Also, $H_2$ yield was increased as $H_2O/CH_4$ ratio increased. Methane conversion was improved as $O_2/CH_4$ ratio was increased, whereas the yield of $H_2$ was decreased. Among the catalysts tested for 30 hours, $Ni(15wt%)/Ce_{0.80}Zr_{0.20}O_2$ showed the excellent conversion(${\geq}99%$) of methane and the stability at the condition of $GHSV=30,000h^{-1}$, feed ratio S/C/O=2/1/0.5 and reaction temperature $800^{\circ}C$.

WGS(Water Gas Shift)반응은 일산화탄소(CO)를 이산화탄소($CO_2$)로 전환하는 반응으로 일체형 수소생산시스템의 실현을 위한 고순도 수소생산에 있어서 중요한 단계이다. WGS 반응은 열역학적 평형을 고려하여 고온전이반응(HTS: High Temperature Shift)과 저온전이반응(LTS: Low Temperature Shift) 두 단계 반응으로 진행된다. 두 단계 공정의 통합을 위해 낮은 온도에서 높은 활성을 갖는 WGS 반응용 촉매 개발이 필요하다. 최근 낮은 온도에서 높은 활성을 갖는 귀금속 촉매에 다양한 담체를 적용시킨 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 선행 연구 결과, Ce-$ZrO_2$ 구조는 Ce/Zr 비에 따라 다양한 특성 변화를 관찰하였다. 따라서 낮은 온도에서 높은 활성을 갖는 WGS 반응용 촉매 제조를 위해 환원성 담체인 $CeZrO_2$에 Pt 을 담지시켜 성능을 평가하였다. 제조된 모든 담체는 공침법(Co-precipitation)으로 제조 하였으며 $500^{\circ}C$에서 6시간 소성하였다. 제조된 담체에 백금(Pt)을 함침법(Incipient Wetness Impregnate)으로 담지시켰다. 특성분석은 BET를 이용하여 표면적을 측정하였다. 촉매 반응 실험조건은 $200^{\circ}C{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ 온도범위에서 기체공간속도(GHSV: Gas Hourly Space Velocity) 45,000 ml/$h{\cdot}g-cat$ 으로 혼합가스($H_2$:60%, $N_2$:20%,$CH_4$:1%,CO:9%,$CO_2$:10%)를 흘려 반응 후 배출되는 가스를 Micro-Gas Chromatography 를 이용하여 측정하였다.

The MFIS capacitors were fabricated using a metalorganic decomposition method. Thin layers of $ZrO_2$ and $CeO_2$ were deposited as a buffer layer on Si substrate and BLT thin films were used as a ferroelectric layer. The electrical and structural properties of the MFIS structure were investigated. X -ray diffraction was used to determine the phase of the BLT thin films and the quality of the $ZrO_2$ and $CeO_2$ layer. AES show no interdiffusion and the formation of amorphous $SiO_2$ layer is suppressed by using the $ZrO_2$ and $CeO_2$ film as buffer layer between the BLT film and Si substrate. The width of the memory window in the C-V curves for the $BLT/ZrO_2/Si$ and $BLT/CeO_2/Si$ structure is 2.94 V and 1.3V, respectively. The experimental results show that the BLT-based MFIS structure is suitable for non-volatile memory FETs with large memory window.

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.

Inorganic pigments have been received a great attention for various applications including paint, glazed ceramic ink, art tile, and building exterior due to their excellent thermal and chemical stability. Traditionally, the compositions of $PbCrO_4$, CdS and CdSe have been widely used as a yellow inorganic pigment. However, the use of these compositions has been restricted in recent years, because they contain harmful elements such as Cd, Cr, Pb and Se. In this study, new environment-friendly ceria-based pigment was synthesized using solid state reaction. Crystal structure and morphology of the obtained $Ce_{1-x}Zr_xBi_yO_{2-y/2}$ yellow pigment were analyzed using XRD and SEM, respectively. Substitutional effect of Zr and Bi on the pigment color was analyzed using UV-vis. spectrophotometer and CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ analysis. The crystal structure of the obtained pigments was dependent on the calcination temperature. The color characteristics and absorption band of the pigments were dependent on the calcination temperature and Zr, Bi contents. As a result, all the obtained yellow pigments showed the effective absorption ranged from ultraviolet to visible light, and $Ce_{0.44}Zr_{0.36}Bi_{0.20}O_{0.19}$ (x = 0.36, y = 0.20) pigment showed the most brilliant yellow color.
