In this research, numerical analysis was performed to determine the effects of hydrogen on biogas combustion for homogeneous charged compression ignition (HCCI) engines. The target engine specifications were a 2300cc displacement volume, 13:1 compression ratio, 15kW of electricity, and 1.2 bar boost pressure. The engine speed was fixed to 1800rpm. By varying the excess air ratio and hydrogen contents, the cylinder pressure, nitric oxide, and carbon dioxide were measured as a function of the hydrogen contents. According to preliminary studies related to the reaction mechanism for methane combustion and oxidation, a GRI 3.0 mechanism as the base mechanism was selected for HCCI combustion calculations describing the detailed reaction mechanism. By adding hydrogen, NO was increased while $CO_2$ was decreased. The cylinder pressure was also increased, having advanced timing for the maximum cylinder pressure and pressure rise region. Furthermore, lean operation limits were extended by adding hydrogen to the HCCI engine.

In this study, to optimize the production and utilization of biogas for organic waste resources, the precision monitoring of on-site facilities and the energy balance by facility were analyzed, and the solutions for field problems were investigated, and the design and operation guidelines for pretreatment facilities and generators were presented. Gas pre-treatment is required to solve frequent failures and efficiency degradation in operation of high quality refining facilities, and processing processes such as desulfurization, dehumidification, deoxidization, dust treatment, volatile organic compounds, etc. Since these processes are substances that are also eliminated from the high-quality process, quantitative guidelines are not presented in the gas pretreatment process, but are suggested to operate during the processing process as a qualitative guideline. In particular, dust, siloxane, and volatile organic compounds are the main cause of frequent failure of high-quality processes if they are not removed from the gas pretreatment process. Design of the biogas high-quality process. The operation guidelines provide quality standards [Methane content (including propane) of 95% or more] with 90% or more utilization of the total gas generation, two systems, and a margin of 10% or more. It also proposed installing gas equalization tank, installing thermal automatic control system for controlling equalization of auxiliary fuel, installing dehumidification device at the back of high quality for removing moisture generated in the process of gas compression, installing heat-resisting facilities to prevent freezing of facilities in winter and reducing efficiency, and installing membrane facilities in particular.

연료로서의 DME 디메틸에테르(화학식 CH -O-CH ,DME)는 당초 가정용 캔 스프레이 등 분사 약제인 프레온의 대체 물질로 사용되기 시작했다. 그 후 양호한 압축 착화성이나 무연 연소하는 성질을 가지는 등 디젤 엔진의 연로로서 LP 가스와 동등한 증기압을 가져 LP가스의 대체연료로서 현재 전 세계에서 활발히 연구개발이 이뤄지고 있다. DME의 재료는 천연가스, 석탄, 바이오매스 등 다양한 자원에서 제조가 가능한데 이들로부터 합성가스(CO,H )를 추출.합성해 제조한다. 이것은 경제규모에 미달하는 부존자원의 유효한 이용이나 자원의 다양화에도 연결되기 때문에 차세대 연료로서 주목받고 있다. 천연가스로부터 저가로 대량 생산이 가능한 직적법이나 메탄올을 탈수해 제조하는 간접법 등 제조 기술도 확립되어 있다.

The high fuel flexibility of gas turbine power system has boosted their use in a wide variety of applications. Recently, the demand for biogas generated from the digestion of organic wastes and sewage waste water as a fuel for gas turbines has increased. We investigated the performance of high pressure biogas compression system and operating conditions for supplying biogas. The total flow per minute of biogas from food waste water digestion tank is $54Nm^3$. The main type of biogas compression system is the reciprocating system and screw type system. The target of biogas mechanical data is the as belows; inlet pressure 0.045bar, supplying biogas temperature is $30{\sim}60^{\circ}C$, and final pressure is above the 25 bar. Also, inlet conditions of biogas consist of CH4 48.5%~83%, $H_2S$ Max. 500ppm, $NH_3$ Max. 1,500ppm and Siloxane 2.7~4.6ppm. The boosting Blower system raises a pressure from 0.045bar to 1bar before main compressor. The main system lay out of reciprocating consisits of compressor driver, filter, cooling system, blowdown vessel, control system and ESD(Emergency Shut Down) system. And an enclosure package needs to be installed for reducing noise up to 75dB. The system driver is the electronic motor of explosion proof type. Forthe compressor system reliable operation, the cleaning system something like particulate filter needs to be set up in the inlet of compressor and Coalescing Filter in the outlet of compressor. Particulate Filter has to be removed above $10{\mu}m$ size of the particles in biogas. The coalescing filter(Micofine Borosilicate Glass Fibers Filter treated phenol acid) also removes moisture and oil of above $0.3{\mu}m$ to be involved in high pressure biogas up to 90%~98%.

Increasing environmental concerns regarding the use of fossil fuels and global wanning have prompted researcher to investigate alternative fuels. The purpose of this study is to investigate the syngas production by biogas reforming using a compression spark ignition engine. The parametric screening studies were carried out according to the variations of oxygen enrichment rate, biogas $CO_2$ ratio, intake gas temperature, and engine revolution. When the oxygen enrichment rate and input gas temperature increased, hydrogen and carbon monoxide were increased. But the biogas $CO_2$ ratio and engine revolution increased, the syngas were reduced. For the reforming of methane 100% only, generation of hydrogen and carbon monoxide was 58% and 17%, respectively. However when the biogas $CO_2$ ratio was 40%, hydrogen and carbon monoxide concentration were about 20% each.

A diesel engine works in high compression ratio due to injection of diesel fuel after compression of air. Therefore the engine has a high thermal efficiency, while nitrogen oxide is produced a lot in high flame temperature regions. In order to solve the problem this study HHO gas is added into the intake air of the industrial diesel engine. The test conditions are loads of 0%, 50% and 100% and engine speeds of 700 to 1900 rpm. The results show the maximum torque and pressure is increased, fuel consumption, smoke and CO emissions are decreased and NOx emission is remained at same level.

The autoignition characteristics of biosyngas were investigated both numerically and experimentally. The effects of the temperature, gas composition, and pressure on the autoignition characteristics were evaluated. A shock tube was employed to measure the ignition delay times of the biosyngas. The numerical study on the ignition delay time was performed using the CHEMKIN-PRO software to validate the experimental results and predict the chemical species in the combustion process. The results revealed that the ignition delay time increased with an increase in the hydrogen fraction in the mixture. Under most temperature conditions, the ignition delay time decreased with a pressure increase. However, the ignition delay time increased with an increase in pressure under relatively low temperature conditions.

세계적으로 석유 기반 자원의 고갈에 따른 부족, 기후변화협약 및 환경규제 강화에 의해 세계적으로 바이오소재를 이용하고자 하는 연구와 더불어 유리강화복합재료의 대체물질로 적합한 천연섬유를 보강재로 사용하는 바이오복합재료의 연구 또한 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 최근 새로운 신재생에너지원으로 각광 받고 있는 바이오에너지 중 해조류는 가장 자연친화적이고 생산력이 뛰어난 바이오매스로 알려져 있다. 해조류는 바닷물 속에 녹아 있는 탄소를 흡수할 뿐만 아니라 광합성을 통해서도 탄소를 흡수하면서 성장하기 때문에 탄소흡수원의 역할을 하게 되며, 해조류 바이오에너지를 생산할 경우 화석연료를 대체하여 지구온난화의 주범인 온실가스를 감축하는 기능을 한다. 본 연구에서는 해조류를 이용한 바이오에너지 생산 공정에서 2차적으로 발생하는 부산물을 보강재로 사용한 바이오복합재료의 제조와 제조된 바이오복합재료의 열적 특성 및 동역학적 특성을 분석하였다. 해조류 부산물의 화학적 전처리에 따른 Thermogravimetric analysis(TGA) 분석 결과로 cellulose 함량이 가장 높고 불순물이 적은 황산 처리한 파래를 이용해 파래/Polypropylene(PP) 바이오복합재료를 다양한 보강비율 (20-50wt%)로 압축성형 하였다. 파래/PP 바이오복합재료의 저장탄성률은 파래 함량이 40wt%일 때 4.0 Gpa으로 최대값을 보였으며 이는 PP 매트릭스와 비교했을 때 약 8.1% 향상된 결과이다. 파래/PP 바이오보합재료의 열팽창 특성은 파래 함량이 증가함에 따라 열팽창계수가 낮아지는 경향으로 50wt%일 때 가장 낮은 값을 나타내었으며 이는 PP 매트릭스와 비교했을 때 약 56% 향상된 결과이다. 따라서 비생분해성 고분자에 새로운 신재생 바이오매스인 해조류를 보강재로 사용하여 열적 특성 및 동역학적 특성이 향상된 친환경적인 바이오복합재료의 제조 가능성을 확인하였다.

An experimental study was performed in order to compare with the case of using pure diesel the characteristics of combustion pressure and exhaust emissions when the engine speed was changed in a CRDI 4-cylinder diesel engine using biodiesel( Canola oil) blended and pure diesel fuel. As a results, the combustion pressure was decreased with increasing biodiesel blended rate when engine speed was 1,000, 1,500, 2000(rpm). but the combustion pressure of the engine speed 2,500rpm was increased with increasing biodiesel blended rate. The emission results show, that CO was decreased with increasing biodiesel blended rate and engine speed. The emission of $CO_2$, NOx, were increased with increasing biodiesel blended rate and engine speed.
