Hydrogen charging station was invested and supported around the world. In this study, the extent of damage caused by VCE in the charging station handling liquefied hydrogen was calculated, and the human and material damage was estimated through the Probit model. In addition The optimal height of vent stack for low temperature hydrogen was set. The damage range is 8.24m in small scale, 14.10m in medium scale, and 22.38m in large scale based on interest overpressure 6.9kPa. In case of death due to pulmonary hemorrhage, 50m of the small and medium scale and 100m of the large scale were injured. Structural damage was 200m in small scale, 300m in medium scale and 500m in large scale. The optimum height of the vent stack is 4.7 m in small scale, 8.8 m in medium scale and 16.9 m in large scale.

저분자량의 가스와 물이 물리적 결합으로 이루어진 가스 하이드레이트는 상대적으로 많은 양의 가스가 포집될 수 있다는 특성을 이용하여 다양한 분야에서 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 매립지에서 발생되는 매립가스를 하이드레이트의 원리를 이용하여 효율적으로 저장 및 수송하기위한 공정에 적용하기위해 필요한 매립지 가스 하이드레이트의 상평형에 대한 특성을 분석하고자한다. 일반적으로 매립지 가스에는 메탄이 약 50%, 이산화탄소가 약 35%, 질소가 약 6% 포함되어 있으며 그 밖에 산소, 수분, 암모니아 황화수소 메르캅탄 등 할로겐 계통을 포함한 탄화수소계화합물 수십여종이 포함되어 있다. 이러한 매립지가스를 하이드레이트화 하기위해서는 매립지가스에 포함된 다양한 성분들이 하이드레이트 형성에 미치는 영향을 알아볼 필요가 있다. 특히 황화수소의 경우 독성이 있으며, 실제 플랜트에서 장비의 부식등 악영향을 미치므로 이와 관련한 기초 연구가 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 메탄, 이산화탄소, 황화수소가 각각 49.9%, 50.05%, 500ppm의 조성으로 이루어진 혼합가스를 이용하여 하이드레이트 생성 및 해리 시 거동을 측정하고 그 상평형 영역을 기존데이터와 비교분석 하였다. 25bar, 36bar에서 측정한 상평형 데이터는 한국해양대학교 에서 측정한 결과와 마찬가지로 실제 상평형 영역이 CSMHYD 프로그램으로 예측한 것보다 하이드레이트의 안정영역이 약 2bar 정도 높게 형성되는 것을 확인하였으며, $CH_4+CO_2+H_2S$ 혼합가스 하이드레이트의 생성 시 mol consumption은 $CH_4+CO_2$ 혼합가스 하이드레이트와 유사하게 나타났다. 이 결과로 유추하건대, 황화수소의 첨가는 하이드레이트의 형성 압력을 높이지만, 하이드레이트 형성률에는 크게 영향을 미치지 않는다고 할 수 있다.

Porous Co-P catalysts electroplated on Cu in chloride based solution with an addition of $NaH_2PO_2$ and glycine were developed for hydrogen generation from alkaline $NaBH_4$ solution. The microstructures of the Co-P catalysts and their hydrogen generation properties were analyzed as a function of cathodic current density and plating time during the electrodeposition. Amorphous Co-P electrodeposits with porous structure was formed on Cu at cathodic current density of $0.05\;A/cm^2$, and showed very high hydrogen generation rate in alkaline $NaBH_4$ solution due to an increase in the surface area of the catalyst as well as the catalytic activity. The Co-P catalyst, which was obtained at cathodic current density of $0.05\;A/cm^2$ for 5 min, exhibited the best hydrogen generation rate of 2290 ml/min.g-catalyst in 1 wt. % NaOH+10 wt. % $NaBH_4$ solution at $30^{\circ}C$.

Acetogen과 같은 일부 혐기성미생물은 소위 acetyl-CoA 경로에 의해 아세트산, 에탄올, 그리고 몇 가지 생화학 물질을 생산한다. 이 경로에서는 일산화탄소를 기질로 이용할 수 있다. 일산화탄소 이외에 수소가 이용될 수 있다. 즉 이들 미생물은 독립영양생물로서 이산화탄소와 태양광에너지를 이용하는 녹색식물과 비유될 수 있으며, 일산화탄소는 탄소원으로서 동시에 에너지원으로서 이용된다. 본 연구에서는 혐기성 소화액 중 아세트산을 생성하는 미생물이 존재한다고 가정하고, 일산화탄소와 수소가 주 가연성분인 합성가스를 공급하면 추가의 메탄이 생성가능성을 평가하였다. 혐기성 소화과정에서 발생되는 메탄은 주로 아세트산으로부터 만들어지므로 일산화탄소를 공급하는 경우 추가로 메탄이 생성될 것으로 추측할 수 있기 때문이다. 이를 확인하기 위하여 현재 운영중인 바이오가스 생산 설비로부터 얻은 혐기성 소화액을 생물반응조에 넣은 후, 합성가스를 순환-공급하여 가스 생산량의 변화 및 조성을 분석하였다. 질소가스를 공급한 대조구와는 달리 일산화탄소 또는 합성가스를 공급한 경우에는 메탄가스가 생산되는 것을 확인하였다. 질소가스를 공급한 대조구와는 달리 일산화탄소 또는 합성가스를 공급한 경우에는 메탄가스가 생산되는 것을 확인하였다. 일산화탄소만을 공급했을 때에는 이산화탄소의 생성으로 가스 생산량이 증가하였으나, 수소가 포함된 합성가스를 공급하였을 때에는 이산화탄소가 탄소원이로 소비되어 가스 저장도 내의 가스량이 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 가스화공정에 으해 얻어지는 합성가스는 온도와 가스 조성을 고러할 때, 바이오가스 생산을 위한 혐기성 소화조와 연계하면 소화조의 가온에 필요한 열을 공급할 수 있고 바이오가스 중 이산화탄소 농도를 낮추어 발열량을 개선할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In the hydrogen compression cycle, which is currently being developed, hydrogen is compressed to a very high pressure using a compressor, and then stored and used in a high-pressure vessel. This shows that an increase in the temperature of hydrogen in the vessel due to a pressure rise during the filling process and the pressure fatigue due to the repeated cycle may cause problems in the reliability of the vessel. In this paper, for the entire processes in a 50 MPa hydrogen compression system, theoretical and numerical methods were conducted to analyze the following: the temperature increase of hydrogen in the vessel and the time required to reach thermal equilibrium with the surroundings, the change in temperature of hydrogen passing through the pressure reducing valve, and the required capacity of the heat exchanger for cooling the vessel. The results will be useful for the design and construction of hydrogen compression systems, such as hydrogen charging stations.

The rocket grade hydrogen peroxide has been widely used as a monopropellant in propulsion systems. In the present paper, we described an experimental study of a catalytic reactor that employs two stage catalyst beds to enhance the low temperature performance of the reactor. $K_2MnO_4$ was chosen as the catalyst for the initial stage of the reactor bed for its superior behavior in the low temperature regime. LSC was used for the catalyst of the second stage of the reactor. The gas generator with combined catalyst beds was built and tested to exhibit high decomposition efficiency over 90% and successful cold-start characteristics.

In today's global energy market, the importance of green energy is emerging. Hydrogen energy is the future clean energy source and one of the pollution-free energy sources. In particular, the fuel cell method using hydrogen enhances the flexibility of renewable energy and enables energy storage and conversion for a long time. Therefore, it is considered to be a solution that can solve environmental problems caused by the use of fossil resources and energy problems caused by exhaustion of resources simultaneously. The purpose of this study is to efficiently produce hydrogen using plasma, and to study the optimization of DME reforming by checking the reforming reaction and yield according to temperature. The research method uses a 2.45 GHz electromagnetic plasma torch to produce hydrogen by reforming DME(Di Methyl Ether), a clean fuel. Gasification analysis was performed under low temperature conditions ($T3=1100^{\circ}C$), low temperature peroxygen conditions ($T3=1100^{\circ}C$), and high temperature conditions ($T3=1376^{\circ}C$). The low temperature gasification analysis showed that methane is generated due to unstable reforming reaction near $1100^{\circ}C$. The low temperature peroxygen gasification analysis showed less hydrogen but more carbon dioxide than the low temperature gasification analysis. Gasification analysis at high temperature indicated that methane was generated from about $1150^{\circ}C$, but it was not generated above $1200^{\circ}C$. In conclusion, the higher the temperature during the reforming reaction, the higher the proportion of hydrogen, but the higher the proportion of CO. However, it was confirmed that the problem of heat loss and reforming occurred due to the structural problem of the gasifier. In future developments, there is a need to reduce incomplete combustion by improving gasifiers to obtain high yields of hydrogen and to reduce the generation of gases such as carbon monoxide and methane. The optimization plan to produce hydrogen by steam plasma reforming of DME proposed in this study is expected to make a meaningful contribution to producing eco-friendly and renewable energy in the future.

A transport container for a 500 kCi tritium storage vessel was developed, which could be used for the transport of metal tritide from Wolsong TRF facility to a disposal site. The structural, thermal, shielding, and confinement analyses were performed for the container in a view of Type B. As a result of structural analysis, the developed container sustained its integrity under normal and accidental conditions. The maximum temperature increase of the inner storage vessel by radiation was evaluated at $134.8^{\circ}C at room temperature. In $800^{\circ}C$ fire test, The thermal barrier of container sustained the inner vessel at $405^{\circ}C after 30 min, which temperature was allowable for the container integrity since maximum design temperature of inner vessel was $550^{\circ}C. In the evaluation of the shielding, the activity of radiation was nearly zero on the outer surface of inner vessel. Consequently the transport container for a 500 kCi tritium was evaluated to pass all the safety tests including accidental condition, so it was concluded that the designed transport container is proper to be used.

Hydrogen is in the world limelight for future energy source, and it has been already used in various industry fields including aerospace. The extremely fine molecule of the hydrogen can be easily leaked from tiny size of the crack on the surface of transporting pipes or storage tanks, and it could bring on awfully terrible disaster. In this study, Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) was employed to develope a reliable detection scheme for a small quantity of hydrogen leakage. Effect of three different metal substrates (i.e. Al, Cu, SUS) on plasma generation and the intensity of the hydrogen atomic signal was investigated, and the surface damage of the substrates due to repetitive laser shots was observed using Scanning electron microscope. It was also evaluated how the surface damage could distort the atomic signal. The intensity of the atomic signal was found to be the strongest, and the signal distortion due to the surface damage was approximately $100W/m^2$ lower when Al was used for the substrate.
