본 연구에서는 인산코팅된 것과 되지 않은 OXI-PAN섬유를 사용하여 제조된 무질서 배향의 OXI-PAN/페놀수지 복합재료를 불활성분위기의 여러 열처리온도에서 탄화하였을 때, 섬유표면에 인화합물의 존재 유.무가 복합재료의 물리적특성 및 미세구조 변화에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 두 종류 복합재료의 물리적특성 변화를 탄화온도 영향에 대한 섬유와 매트릭스 및 그 계면에서의 미세구조 거동변화와 기공형성의 관점에서 해석하였다. 열처리시 온도상승에 따라 섬유와 매트릭스 계면에서의 화학반응에 의해서 그 구분이 점차 사라지면서 국부적으로 치밀하고 균일한 상을 이루고 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 또한, 탄화 조건에서도 인산코팅은 OXI-PAN 섬유의 직경의 감소를 억제하고 열안정성을 향상시키므로 복합재료의 부피수축률을 줄이고 탄화수율을 증가시키는데도 어느정도 기여할 수 있으리라 판단되었다.

The influence factors for char yield in the carbonization process of natural cellulose are the carbonization temperature, the heating rate and the atmosphere in the furnace. In general, it is well known that the improvement of char yield is expected under the conditions of the lower carbonization temperature, the slower heating rate and the presence of inert gas in the furnace. In this study, it has been investigated the effect of the heating rate control with sulfuric acid as a dehydrating agent for the improvement of char yield in the carbonization process of natural cellulose. The cellulose treated with sulfuric acid has shown the weak dependency of heating rate in char yield, whereas the untreated cellulose has shown the strong dependency. These findings clearly suggest that it can be useful to control heating rate with appropriate dehydrating agent in the carbonization process to improve the char yield and shortening the carbonization time.

We analyzed the basic characteristics and adsorption property of carbonized materials from thinning byproducts of major Korean wood species for evaluating as charcoal making raw material. Yield of charcoal was decreased with increasing the carbonization temperature for all wood species. Refining degrees was 9.0 at $400^{\circ}C$, 3.3~5.0 at $600^{\circ}C$ and 0 at $800^{\circ}C$, and was no difference among wood species. With increasing the carbonization temperature, the fixed carbon content was also increased, and charcoal from softwoods had more fixed carbon content than that from hardwoods. Specific surface area was increased with increasing the carbonization temperature, softwood charcoal had more specific surface area than that of hardwood. Pinus rigida showed the highest specific surface area. In formaldehyde removal by charcoal, some materials had highest at $600^{\circ}C$ and the others had highest at $800^{\circ}C$. Pinus koraiensis, Qurcus acutissima and MDF showed maximum formaldehyde removal ability at $600^{\circ}C$. Ethylene gas removal ability of charcoal was increased with increasing the carbonization temperature, and the charcoal from Pinus rigida and Robinia pseudoacacia had higher ethylene gas removal ability than the other species.

Large thermal stress due to the difference between silicon carbide and graphite's coefficients of thermal expansion could be formed during crystal growing process of silicon carbide (SiC) at high temperature. The large thermal stress could separate the SiC seed crystals from graphite components, which bring about the drop of the seed crystal during crystal growth. However, the bonding properties of SiC seed crystal module has hardly reported so far. In this study, SiC and graphite were bonded using 3 types of bonding agents and a three-point bending tests using a mixed-mode flexure test were conducted for the bonded samples to evaluate the bonding characteristics between SiC and graphite. Raman spectroscopy, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, and X-ray Computed Tomography were used to analyze the bonding characteristics and the microstructures of the SiC-graphite interfaces bonded with the bonding agents. As results, an excellent bonding agent was chosen to fabricate SiC seed crystal module with 50 mm in diameter. An SiC single crystal with 50 mm in diameter was successfully grown without falling out during top seeded solution growth of SiC at high temperature.

Torrefaction is a thermal treatment process to pre-treat biomass at temperature of $200{\sim}300^{\circ}C$ under an inert atmosphere. It was known that torrefaction process strongly depended on the decomposition temperature of the lignocellulosic constituents in biomass. In this work, the torrefaction characteristics of baggase has been studied. This study focuses on the relation between the energy yields, heating values, gas emission, volatile and ash constituents with torrefaction temperatures and times. The activation energies of baggase torrefaction has been studied by using TGA (Thermogravimetric Analyzer). From this work, it was seen that ash constituents and heating values were increased with torrefaction temperature, while volatile constituents and energy yields decreased. It was also found that carbon monoxide containing oxygen were decomposed at a lower temperature than those of hydrocarbon compounds, $C_xH_y$.

When a phenolic resin is carbonized by the leakage current flowing along its surface, the carbonization pattern is one of the most important factors to determine its carbonization characteristics. However, the typical carbonization pattern of a phenolic resin is too complicated to be analyzed by conventional Euclidean geometry. In most cases, such a complicated shape shows a fractal structure. It is possible, therefore, to examine the characteristics of the carbonization pattern regarding a given phenolic resin. In order to quantitatively investigate the carbonization pattern of the phenolic resin carbonized by a leakage current, in this paper, the fractal dimension of the carbonization pattern has been calculated as a function of the magnitude of a leakage current and the distance between two electrodes. For reliability of calculation, the correlation function as well as the box counting method has been used to calculate the fractal dimension. According to the result of calculation, the fractal dimension increases as the current increases at the constant electrode gap distance. However, there is no significant relation between the fractal dimension and the electrode gap distance at a constant current.

In order to improve the anaerobic digestion efficiency of the sewage sludge, the methane potential of the hydrolysate generated from the hydro-thermal reaction at 170, 180, 190, 200, 210, $220^{\circ}C$ was analyzed and the constitutional characteristics of the organic materials were estimated by dividing organic materials of hydro-thermal hydrolysate into easily biodegradable, decomposition resistant, and non-biodegradable organic materials applying the parallel first order kinetics model. The ultimate methane potential of sewage sludge hydro-thermal hydrolysate increased to 0.39, 0.39, 0.40, 0.44, 0.45, and $0.46Nm^3/kg-VS_{added}$ as hydro-thermal reaction temperature increased from 170, 180, 190, 200, 210, $220^{\circ}C$. It has been shown that the organic matter of sewage sludge is solubilized to increase the content of biodegradable organic material($VS_B$). The easily degradable organic matter($VS_e$) content was highest at hydro-thermal reaction temperature of 200 and $210^{\circ}C$, and optimum hydro-thermal reaction temperature for organic matter solubilization of sewage sludge was in the range of $200{\sim}210^{\circ}C$. In addition, the amount of biodegradable organic material($VS_B$) and easily biodegradable organic matter ($VS_e$) in the hydrolysate of sewage sludge was the highest at hydro-thermal reaction temperature of $200^{\circ}C$.

The effects of catalysts addition on the carbonization reaction of biomass have been studied in a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). The sample biomasses were Bamboo and Pine. The catalysts tested were K, Zn metal compounds. The carbonization reactions were tested in the nonisothermal condition from the room temperature to $850^{\circ}C$ at a heating rate $1{\sim}10^{\circ}C/min$ on the flowing of $N_2$ purge gases. Also, the effects of catalyst on the torrefaction were tested in the temperature condition of 220, 250, $280^{\circ}C$ at 30 min. Combustion characteristic for the torrefied catalyst biomass were studied in the nonisothermal conditions of $200{\sim}850^{\circ}C$. As the results, the initial decomposition temperatures of the volatile matters ($T_i$) and the temperature of maximum reaction rate ($T_{max}$) were decreased with increasing the catalyst amounts in the sample biomass. The char amounts remained after carbonization at $400^{\circ}C$ increased with the catalyst amounts. Therefore catalysts addition can be decreased the energy for carbonization process and improved the heating value of product char. The catalysts reduced the optimum torrefaction conditions from $250^{\circ}C$ to $220^{\circ}C$. The torrefied catalyst biomass have lower activated energy from 46.5~58.7 kJ/mol to 25.1~27.0 kJ/mol in the nonisothermal combustion reaction.

In order to develop active cooling systems for a hypersonic cruise vehicle, a series of studies need to be preceded on regenerative cooling technologies by using endothermic reaction of liquid hydrocarbon aviation fuels. Among them, it is essential to scrutinize fluid flow/heat transfer/endothermic pyrolysis characteristics of supercritical hydrocarbons in a micro-channel, as well as to acquire thermophysical properties of hydrocarbon fuels in a wide range of temperature and pressure conditions. This study, therefore, reviewed those technologies and analyzed major findings in related research areas which have been carried out worldwide for the development of efficient operational regenerative cooling systems of a hypersonic flight vehicle.

As of 2020, 139,753 tons/day of livestock manure is generated. Most of the livestock manure is made of compost(75.3%) and Liquor(11.7%) and is spread on farmland. The compost and Liquor of these livestock manure are the main causes of water pollution. Therefore, it is necessary to convert livestock manure into energy. For this reason, hydrothermal carbonization technology was applied to evaluate the physical and chemical properties. Among livestock manure, cow manure was used. Through hydrothermal carbonization, it was confirmed that the HHV (Kcal/kg) of 3,101 kcal/kg of raw material rises to more than about 3,800 kcal/kg at 220℃ or higher. This result was judged to be influenced by carbonization through a clear trend of decrease in O/C and H/C ratios. As a result, the value of Bio-SRF was evaluated through hydrothermal carbonization of cow manure, and All other items except for chlorine showed satisfactory results.
