To overcome the limitations of the solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) due to the high temperature operation, there has been increasing interest in proton conducting fuel cells (PCFCs) for reduction of the operating temperature to the intermediate temperature range. In present work, the perovskite $BaCe_{0.85-x}Zr_xY_{0.15}O_{3-\delta}$ (BCZY, x = 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, and 0.7) were synthesized via solid state reaction (SSR) and adopted as an electrolyte materials for PCFCs. Powder characteristics were examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) surface area analysis. Single phase BCZY were obtained in all compositions, and chemical stability was improved with increasing Zr content. Anode-supported cell with $Ni-BaCe_{0.55}Z_{0.3}Y_{0.15}O_{3-\delta}$ (BCZY3) anode, BCZY3 electrolyte and BCZY3-$Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-\delta}$ (BSCF) composite cathode was fabricated and electrochemically characterized. Open-circuit voltage (OCV) was 1.05 V, and peak power density of 370 ($mW/cm^2$) was achieved at $650^{\circ}C$.

The effect of different Ni-containing additives on the sintering behavior and electric conductivity of the proton conducting electrolyte $BaCe_{0.35}Zr_{0.5}Y_{0.15}O_{3-{\delta}}$ (BCZY5) was investigated. Ni-doped, NiO-added, and $BaY_2NiO_5$(BYN)-added (all 4 mol%) BCZY5 samples were prepared by the solid state synthesis method and sintered at $1400^{\circ}C$ for 6 h. Among the three samples, the onset of densification was observed at the lowest temperature for NiO-added BCZY5, which is attributed to the formation of an intermediate phase at a low melting temperature. The BYN-added sample, where no consumption of the constitutional elements of the electrolyte was expected during sintering, exhibited the highest electrical conductivity whereas the doped sample had the lowest conductivity. The electrical conductivities at $500^{\circ}C$ under humid argon atmosphere were measured to be 2.0, 4.8, and $6.2mS{\cdot}cm^{-1}$ for Ni-doped and NiO- and BYN-added samples, respectively.

이탄 토양으로부터 분리된 세균의 유기물 분해능, 항균 활성 및 식물생육촉진능을 확인하고 다기능성 유용 미생물을 확보하고자 하였다. 분리된 48 균주를 대상으로 β-glucosidase, cellulase, amylase, protease 생성능을 확인한 결과, SH-23, SH-26, SH-29 그리고 SH-33 균주가 우수 균주로 선발되었다. 선발된 유기물 분해 우수 세균 4 균주는 식물병원성곰팡이(Botrytis cinerea, Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Colletotrichum acutatum)에 대한 항진균 활성을 나타내었다. 유기물 분해능이 우수하고 식물병원성 곰팡이에 대해 항진균 활성을 나타낸 SH-26 균주를 최종 우수균주로 선발 하였다. 선발된 SH-26 균주의 16S rRNA 유전자 염기 서열을 결정한 결과, Pseudomonas knackmussii HG322950 B13^T, Pseudomonas citronellolis BCZY01000096 NBRC 103043^T, 그리고 Pseudomonas delhiensis jgi.1118306 RLD-1^T와 100%의 상동성을 나타내었다. Pseudomonas sp. SH-26 균주는 siderophore 생성능, 질소고정능과 Indole-3-acetic acid 생성능이 있는 것으로 확인되었다.
