추진제로써 아산화질소를 활용하기 위해 아산화질소의 촉매 분해 특성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 아산화질소를 분해하기 위해 Ru와 Pt 촉매를 $Al_2O_3$ 지지체에 함침법을 이용하여 담지하였고, 관형 반응기를 사용하여 GHSV와 반응온도에 따른 아산화질소의 전환율을 측정하였다. GHSV는 낮을수록, 반응온도는 높을수록 전환율이 높았고, Ru/$Al_2O_3$ 촉매가 Pt/$Al_2O_3$ 촉매보다 우수한 성능을 보였다.

합성가스를 생산하기 위한 메탄의 부분산화반응 특성을 $Ni/CeO_2-ZrO_2$, $Ni-Ru/CeO_2-ZrO_2$와 $Ni-Pd/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ 촉매체를 이용하여 조사하였다. 메탄의 부분 산화 개질 반응에서 촉매의 높은 활성과 안정성을 위하여 허니컴 구조의 금속모노리스 촉매 체를 적용하였다. 촉매분석은 XRD와 FE-SEM을 사용하였으며, 제조된 촉매들의 합성가스 제조 특성은 반응물 비(O/C), GHSV와 온도를 변화시키면서 연구하였다. 개질 실험에서 사용된 촉매 중에서 $Ni-Pd/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ 촉매 체가 가장 높은 활성을 보여 주었으며, $900^{\circ}C$, GHSV=10,000 $h^{-1}$과 O/C=0.55에서 99%의 메탄 전환율을 얻었다. O/C 비가 증가함에 따라 수소 yield는 증가되고, 반면에 CO yield는 거의 일정하게 유지됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 GHSV가 증가할수록 메탄의 전환율은 감소하였으며, 높은 메탄의 전환율을 얻을 수 있는 GHSV의 범위는 10,000 $h^{-1}$ 이하임을 알 수 있었다.

Currently, many structured catalysts using microchannel are researched to apply to fuel reforming. In this paper, ceramic monolith and metal mesh as structured catalysts are investigated for catalytic autothermal reforming. When GHSV increases, each structured catalyst has better performances(hydrogen production, fuel conversion) than packed bed catalyst for autothermal reforming. The major causes seem to be the elevated heat and mass transfer, gas phase reaction and redistribution of packed bed due to high pressure drop.

Dimethyl ether (DME) is an attractive fuel as a hydrogen carrier for mobile PEMFC applications. However, its reforming technologies are rarely studied especially by using autothermal reforming (ATR) method. This work explored the impact of operating conditions to the performance of DME ATR. Temperature, Steam to carbon ratio(SCR), Oxygen to carbon ratio(OCR) and Gas hourly space velocity(GHSV) were considered as the operating conditions. As results, conversion efficiency was increased as the temperature increased, but saturated around $700^{\circ}C$. There was no significant effect of SCR on conversion efficiency, but high SCR led reactions in endothermic manner. High OCR substantially suppressed conversion efficiency, but it helped to sustain the temperature by stimulating exothermic reactions. Conversion efficiency was decreased as GHSV increased. The optimized operating conditions was suggested: $700^{\circ}C$, SCR of 1.5, OCR of 0.45 and GHSV below 15000/h and conversion efficiency was ~85% at the conditions.

The objective of this paper is to investigate characteristics of an autothermal reformer at various operating conditions. Numerical method has been used, and simulation model has been developed for the analysis. Pseudo-homogeneous model is incorporated because the reactor is filled with catalysts of a packed-bed type. Dominant chemical reactions are Full Combustion reaction, Steam Reforming(SR) reaction, Water-Gas Shift(WGS) reaction, and Direct Steam Reforming(DSR) reaction. Simulation results are compared with experimental results for code validation. Operating parameters of the autothermal reformer are inlet temperature, Oxygen to Carbon Ratio(OCR), Steam to Carbon Ratio(SCR), and Gas Hourly Space Velocity(GHSV). Temperature at the reactor center, fuel conversion, species at the reformer outlet, and reforming efficiency are shown as simulation results. SR reaction rate is improved by increased inlet temperature. Reforming efficiency and fuel conversion reached the maximum at 0.7 of OCR. SR reaction and WGS reaction are activated as SCR increases. When GHSV is increased, reforming efficiency increases but pressure drop from the increased GHSV may decrease the system efficiency.

Characteristics of an autothermal reformer at various operating parameters have been studied in this paper. Numerical method has been used, and simulation model has been developed for the analysis. Full Combustion reaction, Steam Reforming(SR) reaction, Water-Gas Shift(WGS) reaction, and Direct Steam Reforming(DSR) reaction are assumed as dominant chemical reactions in the autothermal reformer. Simulation results are compared with experimental results for code validation. Operating parameters of the autothermal reformer are inlet temperature, Oxygen to Carbon Ratio(OCR), Steam to Carbon Ratio(SCR), and Gas Hourly Space Veolcity(GHSV). SR reaction rate decreases with low inlet temperature. If OCR is increased, $H_2$ yield is increased but optimal point is suggested. WGS reaction is activated with high SCR. When GHSV is increased, reforming efficiency is increased but pressure drop may decrease the system efficiency.

The heat-flow characteristics and reforming efficiency of steam reformer with combustor are numerically investigated at various operating conditions. SCR(Steam to Carbon Ratio) and GHSV(Gas Hourly Space Velocity) are adopted as important operating conditions. User-Defined-Function(UDF) was used to simultaneously calculate reforming and combustion reaction. Numerical results show that hot burned gas rise by a buoyant force and heat exchange between reforming reactors and cocurrent flow occurs in the combustion region. The results also indicate that an increase of SCR leads to decrease the mole fraction of hydrogen at the reactor outlet. As GHSV increases, conversion rate decreases.

The synthesis of Fischer-Tropsch oil is the catalytic hydrogenation of CO to give a range of products, which can be used for the production of high-quality diesel fuel, gasoline and linear chemicals. Our cobalt based catalyst was prepared Co/alumina, silica and titania by the incipient wet impregnation of the nitrates of cobalt and promoter with supports. Cobalt catalysts was calcined at $350^{\circ}C$ before being loaded into the FT reactors. After the reduction of catalyst has been carried out under $450^{\circ}C$ for 24hrs, FT reaction of the catalyst has been carried out at GHSV of 4,000/hr under $200^{\circ}C$ and 20atm. From these test results, we have obtained the results as following ; in case of 12wt% Co-supported $Al_2O_3$, $SiO_2$ and $TiO_2$ catalysts, maximum activities of the catalysts were appeared at the promoters of Mn, Mo and Ce respectively. The activity of 12wt% $Co/Al_2O_3$ added a Mn promoter was about 3 times as high as that of 12wt% $Co/Al_2O_3$ catalyst without promoters. When it has been the experiment at the range of reaction temperature of $200{\sim}220^{\circ}C$ and GHSV of 1,546~5,000/hr, the results have shown generally increasing the activities with the increase of reaction temperature and GHSV.

VOCs (Volatile organic compounds) are known as one of the harmful chemicals, causing cancer and global warming. Therefore, the proper control, removal, and reduction of the emission of VOCs are important tasks for the environmental protection. Among the method of VOCs removal activated carbon bed is the most efficient and economical method. In this study, the adsorption performance of toluene gas was investigated using various activated carbons. To find out the adsorption efficiency, the H/D (Height/Diameter) of the activated carbon and GHSV (Gas Hourly Space Velocity) of the toluene gas were manipulated with various conditions. The effect of the temperature, humidity and toluene-MEK-IPA mixed gas on adsorption were also investigated. As a result, a high adsorption performance was found when GHSV is lower at room temperature and low humidity. It was also found that the adsorption efficiency of toluene-MEK-IPA mixed gas system was lower than that of toluene gas system.

수증기 개질 반응로 설계를 위해 수증기 개질 반응로에 대한 열유동 해석을 수행하였다. 6개의 이중관형 개질기 튜브들과 1개의 버너로 구성된 반응로에 대해 개질반응과 열유동 해석을 연계하여 수치계산을 수행하였다. 버너 형상 변화에 따른 반응로 내에서의 유동구조를 계산하여 버너 형상을 선택하였다. 개질반응 통합해석 결과, 반응로 상하단내에서 온도구배가 크게 나타났으며 개질기 튜브 내의 조성 변화도 반응로 온도분포의 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 운전조건인 SCR 및 GHSV 변동에 따른 개질 반응특성이 변화함을 확인할 수 있었다.
