고체 산화물 연료전지(SOFC)는 크게 음극(anode), 양극(cathode), 전해질(electrolyte)로 구성되 있으며 연결자를 통해 직렬 또는 병렬로 연결된 형태로 발전장치 등에 활용되고 있다. 이중 연료의 산화반응을 담당하고 있는 연료전지의 음극으로 지금까지 Cobalt, Platinum, Palladium 등의 전이금속 또는 귀금속들이 사용되었지만 현재는 Nickel 또는 Nickel을 함유한 물질들 특히, Ni-YSZ 복합체가 주로 사용되고 있다. Ni-YSZ 복합체는 가격과 성능 등 여러가지 면에서 SOFC의 음극으로 사용하기에 가장 적합한 물질인데 특히 전지의 지지체 역할과 동시에 전극으로서의 역할도 병행해야하는 음극 지지형 SOFC의 경우 Ni-YSZ 복합체의 효용성을 더욱 커지게 된다. 본 연구에서는 SOFC의 음극물질로 가장 널리 쓰이고 있는 Ni-YSZ 복합체를 core shell 형태로 만들어 전도 path를 효율적으로 하고 그 특성을 최적화하기 위한 미세구조 및 소결 거동, 전기적 특성을 평가하였다.

In this paper, we designed and fabricated the EM wave absorbers for preventing the reduction of the communication range when RFID Tag is approached to a metal plate. The EM wave absorber samples were fabricated with difference composition ratios of Amorphous metal powder and CPE, the absorption abilities of which were simulated by substituting different thicknesses of the EM wave absorbers. Then the EM wave absorbers are manufactured based on the simulated results. By using the EM wave absorbers, we have confirmed the improvement effect of RFID tag antenna and the increase of communication range of RFID system. As a result, it was cleary shown that the communication range of RFID system is improved by adopting the EM wave absorber with the composition ratio of Amorphous metal powder:CPE=80:20 wt.% and the thickness of 4 mm. Thus, it was confirmed that the proposed EM wave absorber can increase the communication range of RFID system from 0.8 m to 5.2 m in UHF band.

The catalytic applicability of various ionic liquids immobilized on different silica-supports such as amorphous, SBA, MCM and commercial silica for the cycloaddition of $CO_2$ and epoxides is reviewed in this work. The effects of different structures of supported ionic liquids and silica supports in the synthesis cyclic carbonate by the cycloaddition of $CO_2$ have been remarked. The studies revealed that ionic liquids possessing functional groups or metals exhibited increased catalytic performance towards cyclic carbonate synthesis. Moreover, the reusability of SSIL catalyst and mechanism for the cycloaddition of $CO_2$ were studied.

In this study, flat-type photocatalytic reaction system is applied to reduce toxic hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) to trivalent chromium (Cr(III)) in aqueous solution under UV irradiation. To overcome the limitation of conventional photocatalysis, a novel approach toward photocatalytic system for reduction of hexavalent chromium including nanotubular $TiO_2$ (NTT) on two kinds of titanium substrates (foil and mesh) were established. In addition, modified Ti substrates were prepared by bending treatment to increase reaction efficiency of Cr(VI) in the flat-type photocatalytic reactor. For the fabrication of NTT on Ti substrates, Ti foil and mesh was anodized with mixed electrolytes ($NH_4F-H_2O-C_2H_6O_2$) and then annealed in ambient oxygen. The prepared NTT arrays were uniformly grown on two Ti substrates and surface property measurements were performed through SEM and XRD. Hydraulic retention time(HRT) and substrate type were significantly affected the Cr(VI) reduction. Hence, the photocatalytic Cr(VI) reduction was observed to be highest up to 95% at bended(modified) Ti mesh and lowest HRT. Especially, Ti mesh was more effective as NTT substrate in this research.

Plastic's ease of processing drives its growing production, resulting in a surge of plastic waste. Addressing this issue, catalytic upcycling emerges as a promising remedy. Various metals (Ru, Pt, etc.) and supports (TiO₂, CeO₂, etc.) have been employed for the chemical recycling of polyolefin plastics. Strategies to enhance liquid fuel selectivity and minimize methane include manipulating particle size, introducing heterogeneous metals, and tuning support characteristics. Simultaneously, endeavors to optimize catalysts by reducing precious metal usage were pursued. This study explores enhancing economic viability in hydrogenolysis and hydrocracking reactions, underscoring the potential of catalystdriven upcycling to tackle plastic waste.

전기방사 탄소섬유와 s-VGCFs는 그 미세구조의 특성 때문에 응용분야가 서로 다르다. 전기방사 탄소나노섬유는 유기물을 섬유화하고 그것을 탄화하기 때문에 VGCFs에 비해서 낮은 가격에 대량생산이 가능하고 촉매를 사용하지 않기 때문에 전극으로 사용할 경우 금속불순물에 대한 부반응의 우려가 없다. 한편, 결정성이 낮고 세공이 잘 발달되어 비표면적이 크기 때문에 이온을 흡착해서 에너지를 저장하는 전기화학 캐패시터나 가스 흡착 분리나 촉매의 지지체로 사용하는데 장점이 있다. 이에 비해서 s-VFCFs는 섬유의 직경이 기존의 VGCF에 비해서 작으면서 잘 발달된 흑연구조가 동심원 구조를 하고 있어 굴곡강도가 크고 열 및 전기전도도가 우수하여 납축전지나 Li 이온전지의 충전제로 사용하여 역학적 특성과 향상시켜 주는 역할을 한다. 또한, 금속과 복합화하여 가벼우면서도 강도를 증가시켜주는 보강재로 사용가능하다.

Fe, Co, Zn, Cu, Pt 등의 전이금속과 ZSM-5 2종($SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ 몰비: 23, 50)과 ${\gamma}-alumina$를 담체로 사용하여 촉매를 합성하였다. 합성방법은 CVD(화학기상증착법) 과 Dry Impregnation (건식함침법), Incipient Wetness Impregnation방법이 있다. CVD 방법으로 얻은 Fe/ZSM-5과 Dry Impregnation방법으로 얻은 Cu/ZSM-5은 NO저감효율에 있어 거의 비슷하였다. 지지체로 사용된 ZSM-5의 $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$의 몰 비가 작을수록, 즉 산점의 수가 많을수록 우수한 것으로 보인다.

Membrane electrode based on chitin(po1y-[$1{\rightarrow}4$]-${\beta}$-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine) was prepared by mixing uniformly grounded of chitin (100 mesh) with PVC and DOS. We investigated the potential response of chitin membrane electrode to metal ions. It was observed that the response slopes for $Cd^{2+}$(34.9 mV/decade) and $Cu^{2+}$(34.0 mV/decade) were larger than those for other ions in pH 4 acetate buffer. The potentiometric response of chitin electrode to varying pH was nearly constant in the pH range of 2~12.

This review focused carbon-free hydrogen productions from ammonia decomposition including inorganic membranes, catalysts and the presently studied reactor configurations. It also contains general information about hydrogen productions from hydrocarbons as hydrogen carriers. A Pd-based membrane (e.g. a porous ceramic or porous metallic support with a thin selective layer of Pd alloy) shows its efficiency to produce the high purity hydrogen. Ru-based catalysts consisted of Ru, support, and promoter are the efficient catalysts for ammonia decomposition. Packed bed membrane reactor (PBMR), Fluidized bed membrane reactor (FBMR), and membrane micro-reactor have been studied mainly for the optimization and the improvement of mass transfer limitation. Various types of reactors, which contain various combinations of hydrogen-selective membranes (i.e. Pd-based membranes) and catalysts (i.e. Ru-based catalysts) including catalytic membrane reactor, have been studied for carbon-free hydrogen production to achieve high ammonia conversion and high hydrogen flux and purity.

In this study, the optimization of active materials and the preparation of particulate adsorbents for the application of metal oxide-based adsorbents for the treatment of $H_2S$, an air pollutant and odorant, occurred in various industrial facilities were investigated. The adsorbents were prepared by using $TiO_2$, which has a high physicochemical stability and relatively high specific surface area among metal oxides and also by different kinds and contents of active materials. The correlation between the physicochemical property and adsorption performance of the adsorbents confirmed that the adsorbent containing KI, which is a typical alkali metal among the active metals, showed the highest adsorption performance. The relationship between the contents and the adsorption performance was non-proportional, but a volcano plot. From XRD, SEM and BET analyses, it was confirmed that the active material was exposed to the surface above a certain amount and also the adsorption performance was the best when the specific surface area and pore volume were $40{\sim}100m^2/g$ and $0.1{\sim}0.3cm^3/g$, respectively. For practical application, the adsorbent was granulated or coated on a ceramic support. It was also confirmed that the adsorbent showed high adsorption performance when the adsorbent was coated on the ceramic rather than that of the granulated support.
