The catalyst carriers of the mesoporous layer compounds were prepared to carry out the partial oxidation of methane(POM) to hydrogen. The catalytic activities of POM to hydrogen were investigated over Ru(3)/SPK and Ru(3)/SPM catalyst in a fixed bed flow reactor under atmosphere. In addition, the catalysts and carriers were characterized by BET, TEM, TPR. The BET surface areas of the silica-pillared $H^+-kenyaite$(SPK) and the silica-pillared $H^+-magadite$(SPM) were $760m^2/g$ and $810m^2/g$, repectively, and the average pore sizes were 3.0 nm and 2.6 nm, repectively. The nitrogen adsorption isotherms were type IV with developed hysteresis. The TEM showed that the mesoporous layer compounds were formed well. The Ru(3)/SPK and the Ru(3)/SPM catalyst were obtained high hydrogen yields(90%, 87%), and were kept constant high hydrogen yields even about 60 hours at 973 K, $CH_4/O_2=2$, $1.25{\times}10^{-5}g-Cat.hr/ml$. The TPR peaks of Ru(3)/SPK and the Ru(3)/SPM catalyst showed the similar reducibilities around 453 K and 413 K. It could be suggested that SPK and SPM had the physicochemical properties as oxidation catalyst carries from these analysis data.

A fuel cell which causes electrochemical ratio of conventional with oxygen consists of mainly there parts, such as electrolyte, fuel and oxidant electrode. IN this paper, most efforts were delivered to manufacturing PETE-bonded gas-diffusion electrode, and preparation methods of the porous electrodes has been discussd. A medio temperature, phosphoric acid fuel cell (PAFC) provided with fuel (hydrogen) and oxygen showed oxygen showed excellent performance characteristics with made electrodes. Performance data obtained from hydrgen-oxygen cell were presented to illustrate their properties. It was found that the optimum amounts of platinum in clectrode for hydrgen-oxygen PAFC were about 3mg/cm3 and the PTFE content of gas diffusion layer and catalyst layer were 25% and 15%, respectively.

Carbon nanotube (CNT) properties, produced using a magnetic null discharge (MND) plasma production technology, were investigated. We firstly deposited the Fe layer 200 nm in thickness on Si substrate by the magnetic null discharge sputter method at the substrate temperature of $300도C$, and then prepared CNTs on the catalyst layer by using the magnetic null discharge (MND) based CVD method. CNTs were deposited in a gas mixture of CH4 and N2 at a total pressure of 1 Torr by the MND-CVD method. The substrate temperature and the RF power were $650^{\circ}C$ and 600W, respectively. The characterization data indicated that the proposed source could synthesize CNTs even under relatively severe conditions for the magnetic null discharge formation.

For the design of selective catalytic reactors of NOx by $NH_3$, engineering approach can be performed to determine the reactor shape, mixing device and $NH_3$ injection system. This study shows the optimization of guide vanes to improve the flow pattern near the catalyst layer of SCR in a untility boiler. By varying their spacings and shapes, flow performance of guide vanes was analyzed to achieve an uniform velocity distribution which increases the NOx convesion efficiency, and a flow direction normal to the layer which minimises the erosion by the dust in the flue gas. Including these results, experimental and numerical studies for the SCR design were discussed.

본 연구에서는 Pt/Sn $O_2$박막의 CO 감지특성을 향상시키기 위하여 표면 형상을 제어하였다. Pt/Sn $O_2$계 박막센서의 최적 동작온도는 175$^{\circ}C$이었다. Pt가 12초 동안 증착된 Sn $O_2$가 200ppm의 CO 가스에 대하여 1.23의 최대감도를 나타내었고, 그 이상의 Pt 증착시간 증가에 따라 Sn $O_2$위의 Pt의 coverage가 증가하여 센서의 감도를 감소시켰다. 다층박막(multi-layer thin film)의 단층의 Pt/Sn $O_2$복합체 위에 다시 Sn $O_2$및 Pt의 cluster 층들을 연속적으로 증착함으로서 제작되었다. 단지 하나의 Pt 층만을 증착한 Sn $O_2$막보다 다층의 Pt/Sn $O_2$막이 더욱 우수한 감도( $R_{air}$/ $R_{co}$=1.72, CO: 200 ppm)를 나타내었다. Pt/Sn $O_2$다층박막의 우수한 감도의 원인은 Pt와 Sn $O_2$사이의 계면적 증대 때문인 것으로 생각되어 진다.다.

We studied effects of the 11-Mercaptoundecylphosphoric-acid layer formation on gold surfaces that have the interactions with the titanium dioxide surface for design of gold- titanium dioxide distribution. The atomic force microscope (AFM) was used to measure forces between the surfaces as a function of the salt concentration and pH value. The forces were analyzed with the DLVO (Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek) theory, to evaluate the potential and charge density of the surfaces quantitatively for each salt concentration and each pH value. The interpretation for the evaluation was performed with the law of mass action and the ionizable groups on the surface.

This paper covers the investigation of the microscale behavior of Pt nanostrucures fabricated by atomic layer deposition (ALD) at elevated temperature. Nanoparticles are fabricated at up to 70 ALD cycles, while congruent porous nanostructures are observed at > 90 ALD cycles. The areal density of the ALD Pt nanostructure on top of the SiO2 substrate was as high as 98% even after annealing at $450^{\circ}C$ for 1hr. The sheet resistance of the ALD Pt nanostructure dramatically increased when the areal density of the nanostructure decreased below 85 - 89% due to coarsening at elevated temperature.

A hydrogen sensor was fabricated by utilizing a bundle of metal oxide nanostructures whose growth positions were selectively controlled by utilizing graphene, which is a carbon of atomic-unit thickness. To verify the reducing ability of graphene, it was confirmed that the multi-composition metal oxide V₂O₅ was converted into VO₂ on the graphene surface. Because of the role of graphene as a reducing catalyst, it was confirmed that ZnO and MoO₃ nanostructures were grown at high density only on the graphene surface. The fabricated gas sensor showed excellent sensitivity.

1. Introduction : The clean technology using ion exchange membranes have drawn attention increasingly with advancement of the membrane synthesis. Ion exchange membranes have been used for diffusion dialysis, electrodialysis, electrodialytic water splitting and electrodeionization. Bipolar membranes(BPM), consisting of a cation exchange layer and an an_ion exchange layer, can convert a salt to an acid and a base without chemical addition. Using the bipolar membrane, a large quantity of industrial wastes containing salts can be reprocessed to generate acids and bases. Recent development of high performance bipolar membranes enables to further expand the potential use of electrodialysis in the chemical industry. The water-splitting mechanism in the bipolar membrane, however, is a controversial subject yet. In this study bipolar membranes were prepared using commercial ion exchange membranes and hydrophilic polymer as a binder to investigate the effects of the interface hydrophilicity on water-splitting efficiency. In addition, the water splitting mechanism by a metal catalyst was discussed.

GaN-based sensors have been widely investigated thanks to its potential in detecting the presence of hydrogen. In this study, we fabricated hydrogen gas sensors with AlGaN/GaN heterojunction and investigated how the sensing performance to be affected by SiN surface passivation. The gas sensor employed a high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) with 30 nm platinum catalyst as a gate to detect the hydrogen presence. SiN layer was deposited by inductively-coupled chemical vapor deposition as post-passivation. The sensors with SiN passivation exhibited hydrogen sensing characteristics with various gas flow rates and concentrations of hydrogen in inert background gas at $200^{\circ}C$ similar to the ones without passivation. Aside from quick response time for both sensors, there are differences in sensitivity and recovery time because of the existence of the passivation layer. The results also confirmed the dependence of sensing performance on gas flow rate and gas concentration.
