  • The purpose of this work designed hybrid-structured and plasma effect photocatalyst of $Ag/In_2O_3/TiO_2/HNTs$ via sol-gel and photo-reduction methods. The structures, morphologies, optical and photoelectric performances of as-prepared photocatalysts were characterized via XRD, TEM, XPS, BET, UV-vis DRS, PL and photocurrents. The photocatalytic activity was evaluated by degradation of TC. The results showed that the hybrid-structure and plasma effect can effectively cause the multi-transfer of electrons and increase the separation rate of electron and hole pairs which obtained high photocatalytic activity. The photocatalytic degradation processes reveal that $^{\bullet}O_2{^-}$ and $h^+$ are major active species.

  • Biodiesel fuels contain unsaturated fatty acid ester, which can easily oxidize, especially when exposed to ultraviolet light. The products formed by this oxidation give rise to sediment or gum formation. As a result, the fuel can contribute to the corrosion and plugging of the filter pump. Antioxidants have been used in an effort to stabilize biodiesels, but there is still a need for a biodiesel composition with improved oxidation stability. In general, good fuel compositions should provide synergistic combinations of a biodiesel and antioxidants. Our work involved the synthesis of antioxidants to improve the oxidative stability of biodiesel fuel.

  • Objectives This study presents a methodology that enables a quantitative assessment of green chemistry technologies. Methods The study carries out a quantitative evaluation of a particular case of material reutilization by calculating the level of "greenness" i.e., the level of compliance with the principles of green chemistry that was achieved by implementing a green chemistry technology. Results The results indicate that the greenness level was enhanced by 42% compared to the pre-improvement level, thus demonstrating the economic feasibility of green chemistry. Conclusions The assessment technique established in this study will serve as a useful reference for setting the direction of industry-level and government-level technological R&D and for evaluating newly developed technologies, which can greatly contribute toward gaining a competitive advantage in the global market.

  • Mankind has just begun to recognize that the most crucial factor to achieve the sustainable society in the future is green technology. Most countries support the development of green technology to prevent catastrophes from global warming, mainly in the areas of reducing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. However, most products we consume in everyday life are produced through chemical processes, and we often oversee the fact that the huge amount of waste and energy during these chemical processes will seriously influence our goal to achieve our future society sustainable. Thus the technologies to minimize the amount of disposed waste and energy consumption during chemical processes may be more important than to reduce the greenhouse gases. In this regard this review introduces the recent status of green chemistry and future prospects in order to help our chemists and engineers establish research projects based on the green chemistry principles.

  • 녹색 화학은 오염 물질의 배출을 피하면서도 동시에 공정 효율을 향상시키고자 하는 목적 하에 화학 공정의 설계, 운영에 대해 연구하는 새로운 과학 분야이다. 1991년에 처음으로 싹트기 시작한 녹색 화학은 오염물질을 청소하는데 집중했던 기존의 미국 환경 보호청의 정책에서 선회한 행보를 보였다. 이러한 녹색 화학의 형성 과정에 대해 연구한 선행 연구자들은 녹색 화학의 정치, 경제적인 동기에 대해서는 집중하지 않았다. 이 논문은 정부의 환경 정책, 산업계의 참여, 그리고 새로 출현한 녹색 화학자들의 학술 활동 사이의 관계를 보였으며, 이를 통해 녹색 화학의 형성 과정이 보여주는 함의를 알아내고자 하였다. 학계, 산업, 정부는 지속 가능한 발전이라는 폭넓은 정책 목표 아래에서, 녹색 화학을 형성했다. 녹색 화학자는 합성연구의 전통 안에서 합성효율을 높이는 반응 경로를 연구함으로써 오염물질 배출을 회피할 수 있는 지식을 만들어 내었고, 화학 산업계는 생산 효율성 증가를 통해 경제적인 이득을 얻고자 이것을 적극적으로 도입하였다. 이러한 새로운 형태의 동맹은 오염 회피, 자발적 규제 등의 방향을 선호하였던 미국 정부의 새로운 환경 정책의 흐름 안에서 지원받고, 유지될 수 있었다.

  • The direct synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with acidic and basic active sites is challenging due to the introduction of functional groups by post-functionalization method often jeopardize the framework integrity. Herein, we report the direct synthesis of acid-base bifunctional MOFs with tuning acid-base strength. Employing modulated hydrothermal (MHT) approach, microporous MOFs named $UiO-66-NH_2$ was prepared. Through the ring-opening reaction of 1,3-propanesultone with amino group, $UiO-66-NH_2-SO_3H-type$ catalysts can be obtained. The synthesized catalysts were well characterized and their catalytic performances were evaluated in one-pot glucose to 5-HMF conversion. Results revealed the acid-base bi-functional catalyst possessed high activity and excellent stability. This work provides a general and economically viable approach for the large-scale synthesis of acid-base bi-functional MOFs for their potential use in catalysis field.
