The metal-impregnated activated carbon was produced from bamboo activated carbon by soaking method of metal nitrate solution. The carbonization and activation of raw material was conducted at $900^{\circ}C$. The specific surface area and pore size distribution of the prepared activated carbons were measured. Also, NO and activated carbon reaction were conducted in a thermogravimetric analyzer in order to use as de-NOx agents of used activated carbon. Carbon-NO reactions were carried out with respect to reaction temperature ($20^{\circ}C{\sim}850^{\circ}C$) and NO gas partial pressure (0.1 kPa~1.8 kPa). As results, the specific volume and surface area of bamboo activated carbon impregnated with copper were decreased with increasing Cu amounts of activated carbon. In NO reaction, the reaction rate of Cu impregnated bamboo activated carbon[BA(Cu)] was promoted to compare with that of bamboo activated carbon[BA]. But the reaction rate of Ag impregnated bamboo activated carbon[BA(Ag)] was retarded. Measured reaction orders of NO concentration and activation energy were 0.63[BA], 0.92[BA(Cu)], and 80.5 kJ/mol[BA], 48.5 kJ/mol[BA(Cu)], 66.4 kJ/mol[BA(Ag)], respectively.

Sodium borohydride, $NaBH_4$, shows a number of advantages as hydrogen source for portable proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Properties of $NaBH_4$ hydrolysis reaction using activated carbon supported Co-B/C, Co-P-B/C catalyst were studied. BET surface area of catalyst, yield of hydrogen, effect of $NaBH_4$ concentration and durability of catalyst were measured. The BET surface area of carbon supported catalyst was over $500m^2/g$ and this value was 2~3 times higher than that of unsupported catalyst. Hydrogen generation of activated carbon supported catalyst was more stable than that of unsupported catalyst. The activation energy of Co-P-B/C catalyst was 59.4 kJ/mol in 20 wt% $NaBH_4$ and 14% lower than that of Co-P-B/FeCrAlloy catalyst. Catalyst loss on activated carbon supported catalyst was reduced to about 1/3~1/2 compared with unsupported catalyst, therefore durability was improved by supporting catalyst on activated carbon.

Pt/carbon Electrode catalysts for PEMFC were synthesized using colloidal method. PSA (platinum sulfite acid) was used as a Pt precursor and CPA (chloroplatinic acid) was also used to replace relatively expensive PSA. Electrode catalysts prepared using PSA showed Pt particle size less than 3.5 nm and Pt yield higher than 90% in 10~40 wt% Pt loading. Electrode catalysts prepared using CPA also showed Pt particle size less than 4.4 nm and Pt yield higher than 80% in 10~40 wt% Pt loading. The MEA (membrane electrode assembly) using 20 wt% Pt/VXC72 showed equivalent I-V curve comparing with commercial electrode catalyst in single cell test.

A performance of micro thruster was measured with catalyst bed that was prepared by different catalyst loading condition for the optimization of catalyst bed size. Among the catalyst loading conditions, pH level of precursor solution was changed by several solutions like Nitric acid or Sodium hydroxide. For the each case, it was heated at different drying temperatures that can affect the phase of catalyst loaded on support. From these results, it was studied that the effect of catalyst loading condition on the performance. 90wt% hydrogen peroxide was used as a monopropellant, and platinum was chosen as a catalyst. Characteristic velocity efficiency and temperature efficiency were used for the performance evaluation.

수소동위원소 교환반응에 이용될 수 있는 소수성 백금촉매를 개발하기 위하여, 담체로서 실리카라이트를 합성하였으며, 합성된 실리카라이트가 활성탄이나 ZSM-5보다 더 강한 소수성을 가지는 것을 보였다. 또한, 일반적인 함침법과 이온교환법을 이용하여 백금을 담지시켰으며, 여러가지 방법으로 처리하여 제조한 백금담지 실리카라이트 촉매의 백금분산도를 수소흡착법을 이용하여 측정하였다. 함침법에 의해 제조된 촉매의 백금분산도는 매우 낮았으며, 이온교환법에의해 제조된 촉매는 백금담지량은 적으나 분산도는 높음을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 여러 종류의 담체 중에서 Davison 952 실리카를 선택하여 실리카 표면의 하이드록시기의 양을 진공열처리 방법을 사용하여 조절하였다. 표면 처리된 실리카를 사용하여 담지촉매를 제조한 후 폴리에틸렌 (PE) 중합을 수행, 소성온도에 따른 실리카 표면의 하이드록시기 양의 변화와 담지되는 조촉매(MAO) 및 메탈로센 촉매의 양과의 상관관계를 조사하였고 실리카 표면처리와 중합 활성도 간의 상관관계를 고찰하였다. 폴리에틸렌(PE) 중합 결과 메탈로센 촉매가 가장 많이 담지된 200℃ 보다 400℃ 또는 600℃ 에서 메탈로센 당(g PE/mol Zr) 활성도가 높았으며, 담체에 흡착된 MAO와 메탈로센의 비율이 400℃와 600℃에서 가장 크게 나타났다.

Heteropoly acid(HPW) catalysts supported on three different carriers, an amorphous silica, MCM-41 and MCM-48, with different loadings and calcination temperatures have been prepared and characterized by X-ray diffraction, nitrogen physorption, infrared spectroscopy, and $^{31}P$ magic angle spinning NMR. From the result of IR and NMR, it was shown that HPW retains the Keggin structure on the supported catalysts. No HPW crystal phase was developed even at HPW loadings as high as 35 wt % on the MCM-41 and 65 wt % MCM-48. Thus, HPW appeared to form finely dispersed species. In the hydrolysis reaction of di, bis, tri-pentaerythritol, HPW/MCM-41, 48 exhibited higher catalytic activity than $HPW/SiO_2$ or HPW.

Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with ammonia was carried out over the physical mixture of $MnO_2$ and K or Cu-loaded activated carbons (AC) at low temperature. Introduction of oxygen affected positively the reduction of NO. Metal-impregnated AC showed significantly enhanced catalytic activity. Without water, the mixed catalyst of $MnO_2$ and K-loaded AC exhibited the best activity in the reduction of NO at $120^{\circ}C$. On the contrary, the activities of all the catalysts were significantly diminished in the presence of water. The mixed catalyst of $MnO_2$ and Cu-loaded AC treated with nitric acid and heat (1 : 1, w/w) exhibited the better activity for the reduction of NO than each single catalyst in presence of water.
