Ni-YSZ 음극의 미세구조와 임피던스특성에 미치는 YSZ 입자크기 및 소결온도의 영향을 고찰하였다. 0.3~0.6$\mu\textrm{m}$의 미세한 NiO 분말을 사용할 경우에는 NiO 분말과 크기가 비슷한 미세한 YSZ 분말(TZ8Y, 0.3$\mu\textrm{m}$)을 첨가했을 때 NiO의 입성장을 억제하는 효과가 가장 크고 환원후 Ni의 입자크기를 미세하게 유지할 수 있는 미세구조를 형성하였다. 또한 미세한 YSZ 분말 (TZ8Y, 0.3$\mu\textrm{m}$)과 조대한 YSZ 분말(FYT13.0, 2$\mu\textrm{m}$)의 혼합비를 달리하여 후막을 제조하였을 때에 TZ8Y 분말만 첨가한 조성이 가장 낮은 분극 저항을 나타내었다. 한편 소결온도는 삼상계면의 양과 분극저항에 영향을 주었으며, 140$0^{\circ}C$에서 소결한 시편의 분극저항이 가장 낮은 값을 나타내었다.

화석연료를 에너지원으로 사용하는 발전소 등에서 배출되는 온배수는 주변 해양생태계에 열 오염원으로 작용할 수 있으며, 배가스중 $CO_2$는 지구온난화 문제를 야기시킬 수 있다. 특히 $CO_2$를분리, 처리하기 위한 연구가 여러 나라에서 많이 진행중이지만, 현재의 $CO_2$ 분리 기술은 고에너지를 필요로 하고, 분리후 새로운 고정화 공정을 거쳐야 하는 등 1차적 처리공정이라 할 수 있다. 이런 물리화학적 분리 기술외에 지구전체 광합성의 90%를 담당하는 해양 미세조류를 이용할 경우 태양광을 이용, 환경 친화적으로 $CO_2$를 고정할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Output prices tend to respond faster to input price increases than to decreases. The 'rockets and feathers' hypothesis of asymmetric price behavior in petroleum market is tested by a full adjustment error correction model. Using monthly data for the period January 1977 to June 2006, evidence is found that there is a significant degree of asymmetry in the adjustment of wholesale prices to increases and to decreases in crude oil price. A similar hypothesis in regard to the exchange rate is also rejected by the data. Using weekly data over the period examined, evidence of asymmetry for gasoline, diesel and heating oil is also found in the transmission of price changes from wholesale to retail: retail prices increase more quickly in response to the wholesale price increases than to wholesale price decreases.

다공성 물질은 동공의 크기에 따라 미세동공(Micropore), 메조동공(Mesopore), 거대동공(Macropore)으로 나누어 분류한다. 다공성 재료의 장점은 높은 비표면적으로써, 촉매, 센서, 연료전지 전극, 에너지 저장장치 등으로의 이용 가능성을 보여주는 연구가 활발히 보고되고 있다. 종래의 연구는 두 가지 이상의 원소로 구성된 박막을 제작한 후 전기화학적 분해법, 선택적 용해법 등 습식공정을 통해 다공성 구조체를 제작하였다. 하지만 본 연구에서는 Au, Ag 타겟과 $CH_4$ gas를 이용해 ICP-assisted reactive magnetron sputtering 장비를 활용하여 450 nm 두께의 Au-C, Ag-C 박막을 제작하였다. 이후 연속적으로 RF 250 W를 ICP antenna 에 인가하여 $O_2$ plasma dealloying 공정을 통해 탄소(Carbon) 만을 선택적으로 제거함으로써, 건식 공정만으로 Si wafer ($10{\times}10mm^2$) 기판 위에 250 ~ 300 nm 두께의 다공성 Au, Ag 박막을 제작하였다. SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy)를 활용하여 표면, 단면 형상을 관찰해 다공성 구조를 확인하였으며, AES (Auger Electron Spectroscopy)를 통해 plasma dealloying 전 후 박막의 조성변화를 관찰하였다. 따라서 plasma dealloying 공정으로 제작된 다공성 Au, Ag 박막은 기존의 습식 공정 대비 청결하고 신속한 공정이 가능하며 높은 재현성을 통해 위의 적용분야에 보다 쉽게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

To identify the effect of engineered barriers on the leach rate of cesium from spent PWR fuel under a synthetic granitic groundwater, the related leach tests with and without bentonite or metals have been performed up to about 6 years. The leach rates were decreased as a function of leaching time and then became a constant after a certain period. The period in a bare spent fuel was much longer than that with bentonite or metal sheets. The cumulative fraction of cesium released from the spent fuel with bentonite or with copper and stainless steel sheets was steadily increased, but the fraction from bare fuel was rapidly and then sluggishly increased. However, the values deducted its gap inventory from the cumulative fraction of cesium released from the bare fuel was almost very close to the others. These suggest that the initial release of cesium from bare fuel might be dependant on its gap inventory and the effect of engineered barriers on the long-term leach rate of cesium would be insignificant but the rate with engineered barriers could be reduced in the initial transient period due to their retardation effect. And the long-term leach rate of cesium from spent fuel in a repository would be approached to a constant rate of $2\times10^{-2}g/m^2-day$.

The objective of this study was to investigate feasibility of semi-dry anaerobic digestion using dairy cattle manure and to evaluate solidified fuel value of semi-dry anaerobic digestate. To evaluate semi-dry anaerobic digestion using dairy cattle manure, 950 mL bottle type anaerobic reactor was set in the constant temperature room maintained at $35^{\circ}C$. To produce anaerobic digestate for making solidified fuel, acrylic cylindrical anaerobic digester(1,000 mm width ${\times}$ 450 mm height) was set in the constant room temperature to carry out batch test of semi-dry anaerobic digestion using same dairy cattle manure. Moisture content of dairy cattle manure and inoculum solution for anaerobic digestion were 80.64% and 96.83%, respectively. The dairy cattle manure and the inoculum solution was mixed by 1:1 ratio(v/v) for anaerobic digestion. Water content and VS/TS(Volatile Solids/Total Solids) of mixture of substrate and inoculum were 89.74% and 83.35%, respectively. In case of non-inoculated anaerobic digester, the biogas was not produced. By the semi-dry anaerobic digestion, the calorific value of the digestate was reduced by 20% compare to fresh dairy cattle manure. In other hand, ash content increased from 15% to 18.4%. The contents of Cr, Pb, Cd and S of pellet produced from anaerobically digested dairy cattle manure were not against the standard regulation for livestock manure solidified fuel. Therefore, it can be used as fuel that anaerobic digestate produced after semi-dry anaerobic digestion using dairy cattle manure.

Platinum nanoparticles loading on carbon nanotube was carried out by impregnation of hexachloro platinate(IV) from hydrogen hexachloro platinate(IV) hydrate dissolved solution without using reduction agents, and heating the hexachloro platinate(IV) impregnated carbon nanotube up to $400^{\circ}C$. The amounts of impregnated hexachloro platinate(IV) on to carbon nanotube were measured with UV-visible spectrophotometer. The TG, XRD, and TEM analysis were performed to confirm the platinum particles loading and distribution on carbon nanotube. The average platinum particles size on carbon nanotube was under 2 nm by heating the hexachloro platinate(IV) up to $400^{\circ}C$ in spite of non-using reduction agents, while the average size increased due to the agglomeration of some particles by heating them up to $800^{\circ}C$. Therefore, uniformly distributed platinum nanoparticles loading on carbon nanotube can be obtained from simple impregnation of hexachloro platinate(IV) from solution and heating it up to $400^{\circ}C$.

Fossil fuel causes the greenhouse effect by emitting $CO_2$, and an estimated amount of oil deposits are also limited. Therefore, people have been interested in alternative energies. Vegetable oil which is one of the alternative energies is eco-friendly renewable energy source and has similar properties like diesel oil with high efficiency. Also, vegetable oil has been well recognized as one of solutions to reduce the greenhouse effect caused by $CO_2$release. In this study, we chose Waste vegetable oil(WVO) to solve the problems of high price of grain and lack of food. Impurities and sediments from WVO were removed by separation process using sieves of $15{\mu}m$pore size. Blending was performed in Homo-mixer by 5000 rpm for 10 min. We investigated viscosities and Iodine values in different compositions of WVO and diesel oil blends. Finally, we could find out blended oils have some possibility to be used in the diesel engine.

Status on the spent nuclear fuel management policy and R&D plan of the major countries is surveyed. Also the prospect of the future R&D plan is suggested. Recently so-called fuel cycle nations, which have the reprocess policy of the spent fuel, announced new spent fuel management policy based on the advanced fuel cycle technology. The policy is focused to transmute highly radioactive material and material having a very long half-life, and to recycle the Pu and U contained in the spent fuel. In this way the radio-foxily of the spent fuel as well as the amount of the high level waste to be eventually disposed can greatly be reduced. Most of countries selected the wet process as a primary option for the treatment of the spent fuel since the advanced wet process, which is based on the existing PUREX process, looks more feasible as compared with the dry process. The wet process, however, is much more sensitive in terms of proliferation-resistance compared with the dry process. The pure Pu can easily be obtained by simply modifying the process. On the other hand the pure Pu can not be extracted in the dry process based on the high temperature molten salt process such as a pyroprocess. Even though the pyroprocess technology is very premature, it has a great merit. Thus it is necessary for Korea to have a long term strategy for pursuing a spent fuel treatment technology with a proliferation resistance and a great merit for the GEN-IV fuel cycles. Pyroprocess is one of the best candidates to satisfy these purposes.
