The specimens for the corrosion test were made by hot-pressing of SiC power with 2 wt% Nl2O3 and 10wt% Al2O3 additions at 200$0^{\circ}C$ and 205$0^{\circ}C$. The specimens were corroded in 37 mole% NaCl and 63 mole% Na2SO4 salt mixture at 100$0^{\circ}C$ up to 60 min. SiO2 layer was formed on SiC and then this oxide layer was dissolved by Na2O ion in the salt mixture. The rate of corrosion of the specimen containing 10 wt% Al2O3 was slower than that of the specimen containing 2 wt% Al2O3. This is due to the presence of continuous grain boundary phase in the specimen containing 10 wt% Al2O3. The oxidation of SiC produced gas bubbles at the SiC-SiO2 interface. The rate of corrosion follows a linear rate law up to 50 min. and then was accelerated. This acceleration is due to the disruption oxide layer by the gas evolution at SiC-SiO2 interface. Pitting corrosion has found at open pores and grain boundaries.

Volatilization of toxic heavy metals, especially, metal chlorides at elevated temperatures in oxidation conditions was observed using a thermogravimetric furnace since such metal chlorides used to be a cause for the disease of industrial workers by their toxicity and high volatile extent. Most of tested metal chloride compounds were evaporated or decomposed into gas phase at elevated temperatures ranged from 200~90$0^{\circ}C$, while CrCl$_3$ and NiC1$_2$became stable with converting into oxide forms. A kinetic model for evaporation/condensation could predict maximum evaporation flux and the calculated values were compared with real evaporation flux. The ratio of two fluxes could be explained as the fraction of impinging gas molecules to the condensing surface( $\alpha$ ) and obtained in the range of 10$^{-3}$ ~10$^{-9}$ for the experimented toxic heavy metal chlorides. This ratio might be used to define the volatile extent or toxicity of such toxic metal compounds. The schemes to avoid volatilization of toxic heavy metals Into the atmosphere were suggested as follows ; 1 ) controlling the compositions of metals and Chlorine produced substances( such as PVC ) in the treated materials using a reverse estimation from regulatory limit and characteristics of a processing facility, 2) Installation of wet type devices such as a scrubber for condensing the metal compounds.

Bead type and hollow fiber type catalyst (HFC, Hollow Fiber type Catalyst) was prepared by $La_{0.1}Sr_{0.9}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_{3-{\delta}}$ (LSCF1928) perovskite powder catalyst which showed excellent methane complete oxidation characteristics through previous studies. The HFC have a cylindrical shape with an empty interior, and pores can be formed through Phase inversion method so the specific surface area can be remarkably improved. In the case of the bead type catalyst prepared by adding Methyl Cellulose (MC), $SrCO_3$ was produced in addition to the original catalyst composition of LSCF1928 due to the reaction of $CO_2$ emitted from MC and Sr of the catalyst. In the case of the HFC, a single phase perovskite structure was obtained without impurities. The HFC calcined at $700{\sim}900^{\circ}C$ showed pore structure of finger-sponge-finger structure, and 99.9% oxygen conversion rate was achieved through complete oxidation of methane at $475^{\circ}C$. Air gap and spinning pressure condition were changed to control the HFC pore. 2 cm air gap and 7 bar spinning pressure showed the best catalytic performance and achieved oxygen conversion rates of more than 70.65%, 93.01%, and 99.99% at $425^{\circ}C$, $450^{\circ}C$ and $475^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Silica(SiO2) nanoparticles are used as additives in plastics and rubbers to improve mechanical, electrical, magnetic properties and optical material. Silica nanoparticles were synthesized by the gas phase thermal oxidation of several kinds of precursors in many types of reactor. Diffusion flame reactor has some advantages compared with other types of reactors. In this study, we investigated the generation of silica nanoparticles on the effect of residence time by tetraethylothosilicate(TEOS) in a turbulent diffusion flame reactor controlled by providing reactant flowrate and reactor geometry affect particle morphology, particle size and particle size distribution. To determine the flame residence time, flame length should be determined which was examined by ICCD image. Particle size, distribution and morphology were performed with TEM.

산업화에 따라 각종 산업분야에서 유기 용제의 사용이 증가하게 되었고 대기오염, 수질오염 등의 상태가 심각해져가고 있는 실정이다 그러나 다양해진 오염물질을 처리하는 데 있어서 기존의 산화처리방법은 한계에 달하였고 새로운 처리공정으로 최근 고급산화법(AOP : Advanced Oxidation Process)에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 대기환경 및 인체에 심각한 영향을 주는 VOCs(Voletail Organic compounds)중 BTEX(Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, Xylene)를 다양한 형태의 광촉매제를 이용하여 기상 광분해한 후 이에 대한 최적의 분해 조건과 분해율을 비교하고자 하였다. 순환식의 자체 제작한 기상광반응장치를 이용하여, CVD법으로 TiO$_2$ 입자를 알루미나 비드위에 코팅한 볼과 같은 방법으로 유리기판위에 코팅한 판상의 광촉매제 그리고 결정성이 각기 다른 루틸상과 아나타제 그리고 아나타제/루틸 혼합상의 TiO$_2$ 분말을 직접 이용하여 VOCs 농도와 종류, 광원의 종류 및 세기를 변화시켜 PID(Photo ionization Detector)방식의 순환식 VOCs 측정기를 이용하여 광분해율을 실시간으로 측정하였다.

The direct reaction method has been used for the fabrication of Al-Mg/$Al_2O_3$ functionally gradient materials. It was found that the reaction layer of the Al-Mg/$Al_2O_3$ powder compact at $900^{\circ}C$ under air atmosphere led to the formation of reaction layers with varying ceramic phase contents. As the results of experiments by using the TGA system, the characteristics and growth behavior of the reaction layers were affected by the reaction temperature, the gas flow rate, the Mg contents and the $Al_2O_3$ contents.

The semiconducting ${\beta}-FeSi_2$ compound has been recognized as a thermoelectric material with excel-lent oxidation resistance and stable characteristics at elevated temperature. In the present work, we applied mechanical alloying(MA) technique to produce ${\beta}-FeSi_2$ compound using a mixture of elemental iron and silicon powders. The mechanical alloying was carried out using a Fritsch P-5 planetary mill under Ar gas atmosphere. The MA powders were characterized by the X-ray diffraction with Cu-K $\alpha$ radiation, thermal analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The single ${\beta}-FeSi_2$ phase has been obtained by mechanical alloying of $Fe_{33}Si_{67}$ mixture powders for 120 hrs or for 70 hrs coupled with the subsequent heat treatment up to $700^{\circ}C$. The grain size of ${\beta}-FeSi_2$ powders analyzed by Hall plot method was 44nm.

Titanium dioxide ($TiO_2$) nanoparticles were prepared by the oxidation of titanium tetrachloride ($TiCl_4$) in a diffusion flame reactor. The average diameter of particles was 15 to 30 nm and mass fraction of anatase ranged from $40\;to\;80\%$. Effects of particle size and phase composition of those $TiO_2$ nanoparticles on photocatalytic properties such as decomposition of methylene blue and bacteria gas were investigated. The degree of decomposition of methylene blue by the $TiO_2$ nanoparticles under the illumination of the black light was directly proportional to the anantase mass fraction, but inversely to the particle size. The decomposition of bacteria by the $TiO_2$ nanoparticles under the illumination of the fluorescent light showed the same trend as in the case of the methylene blue.

It has become inevitable to search for alternative fuels due to severe energy crisis these days. Use of alternative fuels, which are typically of lower quality, tends to increase environmental pollution, including formation of nitrogen oxides (NOx). In this paper performance of vacuum residue has been investigated experimentally as well as numerically in typical operating conditions of a furnace. Heat release reaction is modeled as sequential steps of devolatilization, simplified gas phase reaction and char oxidation as that for pulverized coal. Thermal and fuel NOx are predicted by conditional estimation of elementary reaction rates and are compared against measured experimental data. On the overall reasonable agreement is achieved for spatial distributions of major species, temperature and NOx for all test cases.
