  • The use of fossil fuel and biogas production causes air pollution and climate change problems. Research endeavors continue to focus on converting methane and carbon dioxide, which are the major causes of climate change, into quality energy sources. In this study, a novel plasma-carbon converter was proposed to convert biogas into high quality gas, which is linked to photovoltaic and wind power and which poses a problem on generating electric power continuously. The characteristics of conversion and gas production were investigated to find a possibility for biogas conversion, involving parametric tests according to the change in the main influence variables, such as O2/C ratio, total gas feed rate, and CO2/CH4 ratio. A higher O2/C ratio gave higher conversions of methane and carbon dioxide. Total gas feed rate showed maximum conversion at a certain specified value. When CO2/CH4 feed ratio was decreased, both conversions increased. As a result, the production of solar fuel by plasma oxidation destruction-carbon material gasification conversion, which was newly suggested in this study, could be known as a possibly useful technology. When O2/C ratio was 0.8 and CO2/CH4 was 0.67 while the total gas supply was at 40 L min-1 (VHSV = 1.37), the maximum conversions of carbon dioxide and methane were achieved. The results gave the highest production for hydrogen and carbon dioxide which were high-quality fuel.

  • Soil respiration was measured every two weeks from May through November 1995 using the soda lime method in 40-Year-old Pinus rigida and Larix leptolepis plantations on a similar soil in Yangpyeong, Kyonggi Province. Treatments included control and no-roots(plots trenched and root regrowth into plots prevented). Root respiration was evaluated by comparing no-roots sub-plots to control plots. Mean soil respiration showed highly significant species effects(p<0.01) and was highest at the Pinus rigida control plot($0.38g/m^2/hr$) and lowest at the Larix leptolepis no-roots plot($0.31g/m^2/hr$). High soil respiration in Pinus rigida may be related to aboveground litter production. The annual $CO_2$ fluxes ranged from 23 to 27t/ha/yr. We found significant correlations between temperatures(air : $R^2$=0.53, soil : $R^2$=0.55) and soil respiration(p<0.01), but no significant correlations between soil moisture and soil respiration(p>0.1). Root respiration was 3% of total soil respiration. We might underestimate rapt respiration because of shallow trenches and $CO_2$measurements right after trenching. Factors controlling soil respiration including belowground litterfall(especially fine roots) inputs, litter quality should be well understood to predict soil carbon fluxes and relative contributions to total soil respiration in forest ecosystems.

  • Carbon dioxide is estimated to be responsible for 60% of the global warming effect, and this percentage is tending upward. Studies on removal and fixation of $CO_2$ in the flue gas are recognized as one of the important roles of the future biotechnology. Photobiological systems have considerably higher photosynthetic efficiency than conventional biomass system. The experiment for the photosynthetic fixation of $CO_2$ and the biomass production was performed with various initial cell concentration in a tubular photobioreactor and a bubble column $CO_2$ contactor with a gas sparger of $CO_2$ -enriched air(0.03~20%). Synechocystis PCC 6803 could grow at 10~20% $CO_2$ content under pH control. The highest specific growth rate, 0.0258 $h^{-1}$ , was obtained at 5% $CO_2$-air mixture. The maximum cell production rate, 0.2784 g/L.day, was obtained when the initial cell concentration was 0.45 g/L at 5% $CO_2$ -air mixture. The maximum cell concentration was 2.03 g/L in the tubular photobioreactor when the light intensity was $45.5{\mu}$ $E/m^2$ . s. This system showed 0.482 g $CO_2$ /L . day of the $CO_2$ fixation.

  • 최근 바이오디젤의 원료로 미세조류가 많은 관심을 끌고 있다. 미세조류는 물, 이산화탄소와 태양광을 이용해 광합성 성장이 가능하며, 지질(오일) 성분이 풍부하여 바이오디젤의 원료로 이용할 수 있다. 미세조류는 단위 면적당 오일 생산량이 곡물류의 50-100배 이상이며, 이산화탄소를 기질로 이용하므로 온실가스 직접 저감이 가능하다. 또한 배양시 비경작지나 황무지를 사용할 수 있으므로 기존 식용작물과 경쟁하지 않으며, 하수, 해수, 폐수 등 다양한 물자원을 이용할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 고농도 $CO_2$에 내성을 지닌 Chlorella sp. KR-1을 대상으로 1 L 규모 기포탑 광생물반응기에서 균체 성장 및 지질(바이오오일) 합성에 대한 $CO_2$ 농도, 가스 공급속도, 질산염 농도 등 환경 및 영향 조건의 영향을 조사하였다. 가스 공급속도 0.4 L/min에서 $CO_2$ 농도를 0.03-20% 범위에서 조사하였을 때 최대 균체성장은 $CO_2$ 10%에서 관찰되었다. 균체내 지방산 함량은 $CO_2$ 농도 0.03%에서 가장 낮았고, 5-20% 범위에서는 $CO_2$ 농도 증가에 따라 감소하는 경향이 관찰되었다. 가스 공급속도를 0.2 L/min에서 0.8 L/min으로 증가시켰을 때 최대 균체농도는 0.6-0.8 L/min의 범위에서 관찰되었고, 생체내 최대 지방산 함량은 0.4 L/min에서 관찰되었다. Nitrate 농도 1-20 mM 범위에서 최종 균체농도는 nitrate 농도 증가에 따라 10mM까지 증가하였으나 그 이상에서는 증가하지 않았다. 반면 지방산 함량은 nitrate 농도 증가에 따라 감소하는 경향이 관찰되었다. 본 실험에서 얻은 최대 지방산 생산량은 1,100 mg/L이었으며, 주요 지방산은 C10:0(1.7%), C16:0(28.5%), C18:0(11%), C18:1n9c(25.9%), C18:2n6c(26.3%), C18:3n3(6.6%)이었다. 현재 100 L 규모 광생물반응기에서 석탄발전소 배가스($CO_2$ 12-15%, SOx 50ppm, NOx 100ppm)를 이용한 바이오오일 생산 실험이 진행 중이다.

  • 메탄의 수증기-이산화탄소 복합개질반응에서 니켈 촉매의 탄소 침적 저항성에대한 Ce 증진 효과를 살펴보기 위해, Ni-Ce/${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ 촉매를 제조하였다. Ce/Ni 비율 변화에 따른 촉매 비표면적, Ni 입자 분산도 및 촉매 활성 변화를 살펴보았고, Ce 첨가량을 최적화 할 수 있었다. Ce/Ni 비율 증가에 따라 NiO 결정크기가 감소하고 표면적과 Ni 분산도는 증가하였다. 특히, Ce/Ni=0.5 첨가 시, 촉매는 가장 넓은 비표면적과 Ni 분산도를 가졌으며, 우수한 촉매 활성 및 높은 탄소 침적 저항성을 보였다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 Ni과 Ce 담지 방법에 따른 Ni 분산도 향상과 Ni과 Ce간의 접촉 면적 극대화를 통한 활성산소 공급 향상에 대한 영향을 함께 살펴보았다. Ni과 Ce를 동시 함침법과 연속 함침법으로 담지하여 비교한 결과, 동시 함침법으로 제조한 Ni-Ce/${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ (Ce/Ni=0.5) 촉매가 가장 우수한 촉매 성능 및 높은 탄소 침적 저항성을 보였다. 이는 동시 함침법으로 고분산된 Ni 입자와 담체간의 강한 상호작용 형성과 원활한 활성 산소 공급에 기인한 것이다.

  • Fuel cell is one of the promising electrochemical technologies enabling power production with various fuel sources such as hydrogen, hydrocarbon and even solid carbon. However, its long-term performance is often unstable and unpredictable. In this work, we observed that gasification-driven hydrocarbons were the culprit of unpredictability. Therefore, we controlled the presence of hydrocarbons with the help of external gas supply, i.e. argon and carbon dioxide, and suggested the optimal amount of carbon dioxide required for predictable fuel cell operations. Our optimization strategy was based upon the following observations; carbon dioxide can work as both an inert gas and a fuel precursor, depending on its amount present in the reactor. When deficient, the carbon dioxide cannot fully promote the reverse Boudouard reaction that produces carbon monoxide fuel. When overly present, the carbon dioxide works as an inert gas that causes fuel loss. In addition, the excessive carbon monoxide may result in coking on the catalyst surface, leading to the decrease in the power performance.

  • This paper describes the preliminary study on the development of multi-stage membrane demonstration plant for removal of carbon dioxide from flue gas stream being emitted from LNG boiler in thermal power generation plant. The prerequisite requirement is to design and develop the membrane process producing a $99\%\;CO_2$ with $90\%$ recovery from LNG flue gas of 1,000 $Nm^3$/day. Asymmetric polyethersulfone hollow fiber membranes and membrane modules developed in this laboratory[1] were used in this study. Using the permeation data for the hollow fiber membranes, modelling on the membrane module and multi-stage membrane process was done to meet the requirement condition of the process design. The effects of the operating pressure of feed and permeate side and feed concentration on $CO_2$ purity and recovery were investigated experimentally with the developed hollow fiber modules. These experimental results matched well with theoretical modelling results.

  • Numerical simulation and experiments were carried out on the absorption of carbon dioxide using PVDF hollow-fiber membrane contactor. Water or monoethanolamine (MEA) aqueous soluton was used as absorbents. Simulation results showed that the concentration profile of carbon dioxide was less affected by the flow rate of MEA than that of water absorbent. The absorption rate and mass transfer coefficient of carbon dioxide increased as the concentration of MEA increased. The mass transfer coefficients obtained by experiments coincided with those obtained by numerical simulation and theoretical results for $CO_2-water$ system. However, for $CO_2-MEA$ system, the mass transfer coefficients obtained by experiments were lower than those obtained by simulation, while the simulation results agreed well with theoretical results. The durability of plasma-treated hollow fiber membranes was better than that of no plasma-treated ones.

  • The honeycomb adsorbent was prepared for adsorbing and seadsorbent was prepared by using zeolite sheet, which contained zeolite as component. The steady-state adsorption properties and surface morphologies were analyzed and breakthrough characteristics were ananlyzed by providing 16% carbon dioxide mixed gas. By thermal regeneration, carbon dioxide concentration properties were analyzed, and the adsorptive separation process was compared between thermal swing adsorption and pressure swing adsorption after adsorbent temperature change during heating. The breakthrough results of the honeycomb showed possibility parating carbon dioxide from combustion exhaust gas, which had deep impact on climate change, and the characteristics of the adsorbent were studied. Na-X zeolite was coated on a honeycomb prepared with ceramic sheet or active carbon sheet so that the two honycomb can be used at high temperature. Third honeycomb of rotary adsorptive concentration process.
