This study was carried out to treat the aqueous solutions containing reactive dyes(RB19, RR120 and RY179) by the Ozone demand flask method and adsorption process using activated carbon fiber(ACF) which are one of the main pollutants in dye wastewater. Ozone oxidation of three kinds of the reactive dyes was examined to investigate the reactivity of dyes with ozone, competition reaction and ozone utilization on various conditions for single- and multi-solute dye solution. Concentration of dyes was decreased continuously with increasing ozone dosage in the single-solute dye solutions. Competition quotient values were calculated to investigate the preferential oxidation of individual dyes in multi-solute dye solutions. Competition quotients(CQi) and values of the overall utilization efficiency, ${\eta}O_3$, were increased at 40mg/l of ozone dosage in multi-solute dye solutions. ACF(A-15) has much larger specific surface area$(1,584m^2/g-ACF)$ in comparison with granular activated carbon adsorbent (F400, $1,125m^2/g-GAC$), which is commonly used, and most of pores were found to be micropores with pore radius of 2nm and below. It was found that RB19 was most easily adsorbed among the dyes in this study. In the case of PCP (p-chlorophenol) and sucrose, which are single component adsorbate, adsorption capacities of ACF(A-15) were in good agreement with the batch adsorption measurement, and saturation time predicted of ACF columns for these components was also well agreed with practically measured time. But in the case of reactive dyes, which have relatively high molecular weight and aggregated with multi-components, adsorption capacities or saturation time predicted were not agreed with practically measured values.

One of the major malodorous gas at the working place is hydrogen sulfide and impregnated activated carbon fiber(ACF) was used as a adsorbent to remove this gas. ACF is treated and impregnated with chemicals to increase the adsorption capacity. The experiments showed that the adsorption efficiency for hydrogen sulfide was increased in case of impregnation with $Na_2CO_3$ or KI. Also, by the surface treatment with NaOH, the adsorption efficiency was increased however not so much as impregnation. KI was the best impregnant for this purpose and the optimum concentration was 9wt%. The adsorption capacity of hydrogen sulfide was more than 500mg/g ACF.

팔라듐과 금 나노입자 등이 첨착된 높은 비표면적을 갖는 Polyacrylonitrile (PAN)계 활성탄소섬유(ACF: Activated Carbon Fiber)를 제조하였다. 여러 첨착 ACF에 대하여 BET, FE-SEM, TEM, XPS 등으로 비표면적과 기공부피, 미세구조, 시간에 따른 산소관능기의 표면변화를 관찰하였으며 $SO_2$에 대한 흡착성능을 연구하였다. 그 결과 첨착과정으로 인하여 총 기공부피 대비 미세기공 부피는 95.5%에서 30.5~43.7%로 대부분 감소하였으며, 산소관능기의 표면변화는 대기중에서 시간이 경과함에 따라 나노입자보다 금속염의 산소관능기 변화가 컸음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 Au 나노입자와 금속염을 첨착한 ACF의 $SO_2$ 파과시간은 무첨착 ACF에 비하여 크게 변하지 않았으나, 100 ppm의 Pd 나노입자를 첨착한 ACF는 $SO_2$ 파과시간이 880 s로 흡착성능이 우수하였다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때 $SO_2$ 흡착성능은 시간에 따른 산소관능기의 표면 변화와 연관성이 있다고 볼 수 있으며, PAN계 활성탄소섬유에 적정한 농도의 Pd 나노입자 첨착은 촉매작용으로 인하여 $SO_2$ 흡착 성능을 증가시키는 것으로 판단된다

Catalytic reduction and oxidation of NO over polyacrylonitrile based activated carbon fibers (PAN-ACF) under various conditions were carried out to develop removal process of NO from the flue gas. The effect of temperature, oxygen concentration and the moisture content for the reduction of NO with ammonia as a reducing agent was investigated. The reduction of NO increased with the oxygen concentration, but decreased with the increased temperature. The moisture content in the flue gas affects the reduction of NO as the inhibition of the adsorption of the other components and the reaction on the surface of ACE For the oxidation of NO to $NO_2$ over PAN-ACF without using a reducing gas, it showed the temperature and the oxygen concentration of the flue gas are the important factors for the NO conversion in which the conversion increased with oxygen concentration and decreased with the temperature increase and might be the alternative option for the selective catalytic reduction process.

본 연구는 인산의 전처리에 의한 두 종류의 활성탄소섬유의 특성 변화와 여기에 칼륨을 처리하여 표면 특성을 비교하고자 하였다. X-선 회절 패턴은 인산을 전처리함에 따라 칼륨종을 포함하는 활성탄소섬유에 대한 금속과 금속염의 존재에 대한 좋은 결과를 나타내었다. 인산을 처리한 후에 표면특성과 비표면적 변화에 차이의 원인을 나타내기 위하여, 동공구조와 표면 모폴로지를 흡착분석과 SEM에 의하여 연구하였다. 인산을 가지고 전처리한 활성탄소섬유의 칼륨 처리효과에 대한 화학적 구성에 대한 원소분석을 위하여 EDX를 사용하였다. 최종적으로, 산소를 포함하는 기능기의 형태와 정성분석은 Boehm에 의하여 제안된 방법으로 부터 결정하였다.

본 연구에서는 열분해잔사유(Pyrolysis Fuel Oil, PFO)를 이용한 Pitch계 활성탄소섬유를 제조하였다. 제조한 Pitch안정화 섬유의 탄화 및 활성화 온도를 850, 880, $900^{\circ}C$로 달리하여 각각 다른 샘플의 기공형성에 대한 영향을 알아보기 위해 BET와 SEM을 이용하여 비교 분석하였다. 세 가지 샘플 ACF850, ACF880, ACF900를 분석한 결과 ACF880의 비표면적과 미세기공표면적이 각각 $1,420m^2{\cdot}g^{-1}$, $1,270m^2{\cdot}g^{-1}$으로 가장 높았으며, 외부비표면적과 BJH흡착누적공극표면에서 가장 낮은 중기공표면적이 도출되었다. 또한 $N_2$가스 등온흡착곡선을 분석한 결과, 미세기공의 분포가 균일한 것을 확인할 수 있었다. ACF880은 흡착률 및 흡착속도에서도 가장 높은 결과값을 보이며, 흡착속도는 미세기공표면적과 비례하며 중기공표면적과 반비례함을 알 수 있었다. 제조한 Pitch계 활성탄소섬유를 라돈 연속측정방법을 통해 48시간 동안 측정한 결과 샘플 모두 라돈 흡착성능을 보였다. 제조한 샘플 중 ACF880이 34.0%로 가장 높은 흡착률을 보였으며, ACF850이 29.5%로 가장 낮은 흡착률을 나타내었다. 이는 비표면적이 높을수록 흡착률이 높아지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이를 선형회귀선 기울기로 환산하여 흡착속도로 확인한 결과 ACF880이 -1.89로 가장 빠른 것을 확인하였으며, ACF900이 -1.48로 가장 낮은 흡착속도를 보여 미세기공표면적이 높을수록, 중기공표면적이 낮을수록 흡착속도가 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

In this work, a nickel metal (Ni) electroplating on the activated carbon fiber (Ni/ACFs) surfaces was carried out to remove the toxic hydrogen chloride (HCl) gas. The surface properties of the treated ACFs were determined by using nitrogen adsorption isotherms at 77 K, SEM, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements. HCl removal efficiency was confirmed by a gas-detecting tube technique. As a result, the nickel metal contents on the ACF surfaces were increased with increasing the plating time. And, it was found that the specific surface area or the micropore volume of the ACFs studied was slightly decreased as increasing the plating time. Whereas, it was revealed that the HCl removal efficiency containing nickel metal showed higher efficiency values than that of untreated ACFs. These results indicated that the presence of nickel metal on the ACF surfaces played an important role in improving the HCl removal over the Ni/ACFs, due to the catalytic reactions between nickel and chlorine.

Coal tar pitch was chemically modified with 10 wt% benzoquinone (BQ) to raise the softening point of isotropic pitch precursor and the precursor was melt-spun into pitch fibers, stabilized, carbonized and activated with steam at $900^{\circ}C$. The weight loss of carbon fiber-benzoquinone (CF-BQ) increased with the increase of activation time like other fibers, but was lower than those of Kureha fiber at the same activation time in spite of larger geometric surface area. Those adsorption isotherms fitted into 'Type I' according to Brunauer, Deming, Deming and Teller classification. However, there was very thin low-pressure hysteresis that lower closure points of the hysteresis are about 0.42-0.45. From the pore size distribution curves, there might be some micropores having narrow-necked bottle; a series of interconnected pore is more likely than discrete bottles. FT-IR studies showed that the functional groups such as carboxyl, quinone, and phenol were introduced to ACFs-BQ surface after steam activation. Methylene blue decolorization and iodine adsorption capacity of ACF-BQ increased linearly with the increase of specific surface area and was larger than that of ACF-Kureha at the same specific surface area.

For manufacturing a high sorptive ACF, we used orthognal array experimental design to get optimum condition. The ability of ACF was measured by $CCl_4$ adsorption and showed those manufacturing conditions were effective in the order of treatment time>oxidative gas>treatment temperature. The optimal condition presented the maximum adsorption rate was at 90$0^{\circ}C$ for 6 minutes with $CO_2$/$H_2O$ gas in the PAN based ACF manufacturing process. The adsorption rate of developed ACF in this experiment was over 100%.

Activated carbon fiber (ACF) surfaces are modified using an electron beam under different aqueous solutions to improve the NO gas sensitivity of a gas sensor based on ACFs. The oxygen functional group on the ACF surface is changed, resulting in an increase of the number of non-carbonyl (-C-O-C-) groups from 32.5% for pristine ACFs to 39.53% and 41.75% for ACFs treated with hydrogen peroxide and potassium hydroxide solutions, respectively. We discover that the NO gas sensitivity of the gas sensor fabricated using the modified ACFs as an electrode material is increased, although the specific surface area of the ACFs is decreased because of the recovery of their crystal structure. This is attributed to the static electric interaction between NO gas and the non-carbonyl groups introduced onto the ACF surfaces.
