  • Hydrogen combustion in modern gas-turbine engine is the cutting edge technology as carbon-free energy conversion system. Flashback of hydrogen flame, however, is inevitable and critical specially for premixed hydrogen combustion. Therefore, this experimental investigation is conducted to understand flashback phenomenon in premixed hydrogen combustion. In order to investigate flashback characteristics in premixed hydrogen (H2)/air flame, we focus on pressure conditions and nozzle shapes. In general, quenching distance reduces as pressure of combustion chamber increases, causing flashback from boundary layer near wall. The flashback regime for reference and modified candidate configurations can broadly appear with increasing combustion chamber pressure. The later one can improve flashback-resist by compensating flow velocity at wall. Also, improved wall flow velocity profile of suggested contraction nozzle prevents entire flashback but causes local flashback at nozzle exit.

  • Global efforts are focused on achieving carbon neutrality due to the increases in the levels of greenhouse gases. Moreover, the greenhouse gases generated from the disposal of municipal solid waste (MSW) are the primary sources of emissions in South Korea. In this study, we conducted the biological conversion of syngas (CO, H2, and CO2) generated from MSW gasification. The MSW-derived syngas was used as a feed source for cultivating Eubacterium limosum KIST612, and pressurization was employed to enhance gas solubility in culture broth. However, the pH of the medium decreased owing to the pressurization because of the CO2 in the syngas and the cultivation-associated organic acid production. The replacement of conventional HEPES buffer with a phosphate buffer led to an approximately 2.5-fold increase in acetic acid concentration. Furthermore, compared with the control group, the pressurized reactor exhibited a maximum 8.28-fold increase in the CO consumption rate and a 3.8-fold increase in the H2 consumption rate.

  • 2002년부터 2004년까지 수원의 작물과학원 논포장을 년차간 순차적으로 밭으로 전환하고 또 밭상태에서 우분을 누적투 입하면서 호밀과 옥수수의 윤작을 통하여 질소와 관련된 토양 특성, 작물의 건물수량 및 질소흡수량을 조사하였는데, 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 논의 밭전환 1년차에는 밭사료작물, 특히 답리작 호밀의 생육과 수량이 현저히 감소하였으며, 그에 따라 우분시용에 의한 무기태질소 등 양분의 이용효율도 현저히 감소하였다. 그러나 전환년차의 증가와 함께 밭사료작물의 수량과 질소흡수량이 증가하였는데, 특히 밭상태에서 전환3년차까지 우분의 누적투입은 토양에의 무기태 질소공급과 더불어 옥수수의 수량, 질소흡수량 및 우분질소 이용률을 계속적으로 증가시켰다. 그 증가는 전환년차 증가에 따른 논토양 자체의 질소공급보다는 주로 우분시용에 의한 토양물리성 개선, 토양탄소 및 무기화 가능한 지력질소(가급태질소) 증가 등 지력증진에 크게 기인하였다. 따라서 전환밭에서 정상적인 밭사료작물의 수량을 얻기 위해서는 전환2년 이상의 기간이 필요하였으며, 이때 우분의 투입은 토양에 무기태질소 공급뿐만아니라 토양유기물 등 지력증진에도 효과적이었으며, 또한 그것이 누적적으로 투입될 때 그 효과가 증가되는 것으로 나타났다.

  • Alumina particles wrapped in few-layer graphene sheets were prepared by calcining aluminum nitride powders under a mixed gas flow of carbon monoxide and argon. The graphene sheets were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, electron energy loss spectroscopy, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The few-layer graphene sheets, which wrapped around the alumina particles, did not exhibit any diffraction peaks in the XRD patterns but did show three characteristic bands (D, G, and 2D bands) in the Raman spectra. The dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) with the alumina particles wrapped in few-layer graphene sheets exhibited significantly improved overall energy-conversion efficiency, compared to conventional DSSC, due to longer electron lifetime.

  • The installation of light oil facilities or delayed cokers seems to be inevitable in the oil refinery industry due to the heavy crude oil reserves and the increased use of light fuels as petroleum products. Petroleum coke is a byproduct of oil refineries and it has higher fixed carbon content, higher calorific value, and lower ash content than coal. However, its sulfur content and heavy metal content are higher than coal. In spite of disadvantages, petroleum coke might be one of promising resources due to gasification processes. The gasification of petroleum coke can improve economic value of oil refinery industries by handling cheap, toxic wastes in an environment-friendly way. In this study, $CO_2$ gasification reaction kinetics of petroleum coke, various coals and mixing coal with petroleum coke have investigated and been compared by using TGA. The kinetics of $CO_2$ gasification has been performed with petroleum coke, 3 kinds of bituminous coal [BENGALLA, White Haven, TALDINSKY], and 3 kinds of sub-bituminous coal [KPU, LG, MSJ] at various temperature[$1100-1400^{\circ}C$].

  • Batch cultivations of Anaerobiospirillum succiniciproducens have been systematically studied for the economical production of succinic acid from wood hydrolysate with corn steep liquor(CSL) as a nitrogen source. CSL was found to be an alternative complex nitrogen source for A. succiniciproducens when glucose and wood hydrolysate were used as carbon sources. Compared with polypeptone and/or yeast extract, CSL had similar effects on fermentation performance such as succinic acid yield and a ratio of succinic acid to acetic acid in the fermentation of wood hydrolysate as well as glucose. This means that succinic acid can be produced more economically from wood hydrolysate and CSL than relatively expensive carbon and nitrogen sources. Besides its low cost, the alternative medium served as a green technology for succinic acid production because it gives a net-zero effect on global warming.

  • Steam reforming (SR) of glycerol, a main by-product of manufacturing process of bio-diesel, for the production of hydrogen was investigated over the Ni-based catalysts. The Ni-based catalysts were prepared by an impregnation method, and characterized by $N_2$ physisorption, CO chemisorption, XRD and TEM techniques. It was found that the Ni/${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst showed higher conversion and catalytic stability for the carbon formation than the other catalysts in the steam reforming of glycerol under the tested conditions. The results suggest that the steam reforming of glycerol over modified Ni/${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst minimized carbon formation can be applied in hydrogen station for fuel-cell powered vehicles and fuel processor for stationary and portable fuel cells.

  • Recently worldwide concern and research is being actively conducted on green energy which can reduce environmental pollution. A plant such as the natural rapeseed oil, soybean oil, palm, etc. is used as a bio source in home and industry. Biofuels is a sustainable fuel having economically benefits and decreasing environmental pollution problems caused due to fossil fuel, and it can be applied to the conventional diesel engine without changing the existing institutional structure. Waste vegetable oil contains a high cetane number and viscosity component, the low carbon and oxygen content. A lot of research is progressing about the conversion of waste vegetable oil as renewable clean energy. In this study, waste oil was prepared to waste cooking oil generated from the living environment, and applied to diesel engine to confirm the possibility and cost-effectiveness of biodiesel blend waste oil. As a result, brake specific fuel consumption and NOx was increased, carbon monoxide and soot was decreased.

  • Carbon Nanotube(CNTs) counter electrode is a promising alternative to Platinum counter electrode for dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). In this study, CNT counter electrodes having different visible light transmittance were prepared on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) glass surface by spray coating method. Microstructural images show that there are CNT-tangled region coated on FTO glass counter electrodes. Using such CNT counter electrodes and screen printed $TiO_2$ electrodes, DSSCs were assembled and its I-V characteristics have been studied and compared. Light energy conversion efficiency of DSSCs increased with decreasing in light transmittance of CNT counter electrode. Efficiency of DSSCs having CNT counter electrode is compatible to that of Pt counter electrode.
