Simultaneous nitrification and denitrification of ammonia and organic compounds-containing wastewater were performed in a fluidized bed biofilm reactor with polysulfone(PS) hollow fiber as a double layer biomass carrier. The PS hollow fiber fragment has both aerobic and anoxic environments for the nitrifiaction and denitrification at the shell and lumen-side respectively. The reactor system showed about 80% nitrification efficiency stably throughout the ammonia load conditions applied in the experiment. Denitrification efficiency depended on organic load and C/N ratio. High free ammonia concentration and low dissolved oxygen resulted in nitrite accumulation which leads to enhance organic carbon efficiency in denitrification when compared to nitrate denitrification. The simultaneous nitrification and denitrification reactor system has an economic advantages in reduced chemical cost of organic carbon for denitrification as well as compact reactor configuration.

Shell shaped hollow carbon nanoparticles are synthesized in the oxygen-hydrogen diffusion flame with $C_{2}H_{2}$ as precursor when it is irradiated with $CO_{2}$ laser of certain power. Below this power of laser, we couldn't get any other but amorphous soot. This shell shaped hollow carbon nanoparticles shows outer wall of high degree of crystallinity with void space inside of itself. And size distribution of these nanoparticles is measured with TEM image analysis. Also the structural comparison between this carbon nanoparticle and soot is done by Raman and XRD measurement. These results show this carbon nanoparticles are of grapheme structure, which means it has good crystallinity when compared with soot.

Well-aligned multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were successfully synthesized by catalytic chemical vapor deposition using a hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) additive onto Al/Fe thin film deposited on Si wafers. Transmission electron microscopy images indicated that the as-grown carbon products were thin MWCNTs with small outer diameters of less than 10 nm. $H_2S$ plays a key role in synthesizing thin MWCNTs with a large inside hollow core. The well-aligned thin MWCNTs showed a low turn-on voltage of about 1.1 V/${\mu}m$ at a current density of 0.1 ${\mu}A/cm^2$ and a high emission current of about 1.0 mA/$cm^2$ at a bias field of 2.3 V/${\mu}m$. We suggest a possible growth mechanism for the well-aligned thin MWCNTs with a large inside hollow core.

Today, the modification of carbon foam for high performance remains a major issue in the environment and energy industries. One promising way to solve this problem is the optimization of the pore structure for desired properties as well as for efficient performance. In this study, using a sol-gel process followed by carbonization in an inert atmosphere, hollow spherical carbon foam was prepared using resorcinol and formaldehyde precursors catalyzed by 4-aminobenzoic acid; the effect of carbonization temperature and re-immersion treatment on the pore structure and characteristics of the hollow spherical carbon foam was investigated. As the carbonization temperature increased, the porosity and average pore diameter were found to decrease but the compression strength and electrical conductivity dramatically increased in the temperature range of this study ($700^{\circ}C$ to $850^{\circ}C$). The significant differences of X-ray diffraction patterns obtained from the carbon foams carbonized under different temperatures implied that the degree of crystallinity greatly affects the characteristics of the carbon form. Also, the number of re-impregnations of carbon form in the resorcinol-formaldehyde resin was varied from 1 to 10 times, followed by re-carbonization at $800^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours under argon gas flow. As the number of re-immersion treatments increased, the porosity decreased while the compression strength improved by about four times when re-impregnation was repeated 10 times. These results imply the possibility of customizing the characteristics of carbon foam by controlling the carbonization and re-immersion conditions.

수소-이산화탄소(5:1) 혼합가스 순환장치를 장착한 반응기를 이용하여 독립영양형 메탄생산세균을 농화하였으며, 생산된 메탄의 농도는 10%미만이었다. 30일 이상 농화배양한 후 16S-rDNA 동질성을 이용하여 반응기에서 생장하고 있는 세균을 분석한 결과 수소를 단일 에너지 원으로 이용하는 Methanobacterium curvum와 Methanobacterium oryzae로 확인되었다. 농화된 세균을 hollow-fiber수소 공급장치를 장착한 반응기에 배양하여 메탄의 농도를 30%까지 향상하였다. 그러나 농화된 세균을 hollow-fiber 수소 공급장치와 미량의 수소를 생산하고 전기화학적 환원성 환경을 유도할 수 있는 장치를 장착한 복합형 반응기에 적용한 결과 메탄의 생산성은 50%가지 향상하였다. 이러한 결과는 독립영양형 메탄생산세균을 농화 또는 대량 배양하기 위해서 hollow-fiber 수소 공급장치와 전기화학적 환원력을 복합적으로 이용하는 것이 유리하다는 것을 보여주는 것이다.

이차전지 음극소재인 실리콘의 부피팽창을 개선하기 위하여 hollow silicon/carbon (H-Si/C) 복합체의 특성을 조사하였다. $St{\ddot{o}}ber$법을 통해 합성한 $SiO_2$에 $NaBH_4$를 첨가해 hollow 형태의 $SiO_2\;(H-SiO_2)$를 제조한 후, 마그네슘 열 환원 반응과 phenolic 수지(resin)를 첨가한 후 탄화과정을 거쳐서 H-Si/C 복합체를 합성하였다. 제조된 H-Si/C 합성물은 XRD, SEM, BET, EDX, TGA를 통해 특성을 분석하였다. 음극소재의 용량과 사이클 안정성을 향상시키기 위해서, $NaBH_4$ 첨가량에 따라 합성된 H-Si/C 복합체의 전기화학적 특성을 충방전, 사이클, 순환전압전류, 임피던스 테스트를 통해 조사하였다. H-Si/C 음극활물질과 $LiPF_6$ (EC : DMC : EMC = 1 : 1 : 1 vol%) 전해액을 사용하여 제조한 코인셀은 $SiO_2:NaBH_4=1:1$일 때 1459 mAh/g의 향상된 용량을 나타내었으며, 사이클 성능 또한 두 번째 사이클 이후 40번째 사이클까지 매우 우수한 안정성을 나타냄을 확인하였다.

동일 운전 조건에서 폴리이서술폰 중공사 분리막을 이용하여 혼합 기체로부터 이산화탄소 분리 실험과 수치해석으로 얻어진 결과를 비교하였다. 순수한 기체의 투과도로부터 구한 이상 선택도를 활용한 예측값과 실험값이 많은 차이 가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 이산화탄소 투과도와 선택도를 혼합 기체 분리 실험 결과로부터 구한 후 공급 이산화탄소 몰 분율, 공급 압력과 투과측 압력의 함수로서 투과도와 선택도를 얻을 경우 수치해석 예측값과 실험값이 잘 일치하는 것을 확인하였다.

The asymmetric hollow fiber membranes were prepared by the wet spining of polyetherimide dope solution and the effect of hollow fiber structures on the permeation characteristics of carbon dioxide and nitrogen gases through these membrane were investigated. As the concentration of the $\gamma$-butyrolactone (GBL) in dope solution, acting as a swelling agent was increased, the structure of hollow fiber was changed from the finger to sponge type. The permeabilities of gases (CO$_{2}$, N$_{2}$) through these membrane were measured over the wide range of pressure under different temperature. The effect of water vapor on the permeabilities of gases was also investigated. The measured permeabilities showed the different characteristics depending on the structure of membranes. It was found that the flow through the pores were dominant over the polymers matrix. Blocking effect by water vapor in the pores of skin layer greatly improved the ideal separation factor of carbon dioxide/nitrogen.

Hollow copper oxide/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CuO/MWCNT) composites were fabricated via an optimized infiltration-reduction-oxidation method, which is more facile and easy to control. The crystalline structure and morphology were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The as-prepared CuO/MWCNT composites deliver an initial capacity of 612.3 mAh·g^-1 and with 80% capacity retention (488.2 mAh·g^-1) after 100 cycles at a current rate of 0.2 A·g^-1. The enhanced electrochemical performance is ascribed to the better electrical conductivity of MWCNT, the hollow structure of CuO particles, and the flexible structure of the CuO/MWCNT composites.
