Four kinds of plasma blacks were prepared by plasma pyrolysis under various metallic catalysts coated on honeycomb, and investigated the catalytic effect on the characteristics of the plasma blacks prepared under plasma pyrolysis condition. Pt, Pt-Rh, and Pd catalysts were employed as active materials to prepare the plasma blacks. In the experimental range studied, the metallic catalysts influenced on surface area, particle size, surface oxygen content and electrical conductivity of the plasma blacks prepared. It was showed that more dense particle of plasma blacks were prepared under existence of metallic catalysts. Presence of the metallic catalyst reduces the electrical resistivity of plasma blacks due to the decrease in the amount of oxygen functional groups. The highest electrical conductivity of plasma black was observed in the Pt catalyst and then followed by those Pt-Rh, Pd and bare cordierite honeycomb.

A universal plasma-chemical module (PChM) for the industrial processing of different hydrocarbon raw material pyrolysis was designed and tested. Laboratory investigations for the plasma-chemical method of acetylene production from natural gas and different coals were made. Similar laboratory tests on the industrial production of acetylene as a raw material for organic syn-thesis were developed using the PChM. A comparison of the suggested plasma-chemical method with the traditional process of acetylene production were carried out. The outlook of the plasma-chemical method was shown.

PGV(Plasma Gasification & Vitrification) system has been developed based on a pyrolysis melting gasification technology that provides the possibilities of acquiring renewable energy. As volume of wastes increases with the rapid industrialization and population growth, eco friendly disposal is drawing more social attention. Pyrolysis plasma technology is regarded as the best environmentally friendly process for the waste disposal among numerous waste disposal processes. Introduced in this paper is the behavior of the plasma torch and a computational fluid simulation dynamics is discussed for designing the melting furnace. Some PGV applications have also been discussed.

Pyrolysis/gasification technology utilizes an energy conversion technique from various waste resources, such as biomass, solid waste, sewage sludge, and etc. to generating a syngas (synthesis gas). However, one of the major problems for the pyrolysis gasification is the presence of tar in the product gas. The tar produced might cause damages and operating problems on the facility. In this study, a gliding arc plasma reformer was developed to solve the previously acknowledged issues. An experiment was conducted using surrogate benzene and naphthalene, which are generated during the pyrolysis and/or gasification, as the representative tar substance. To identify the characteristics of the influential parameters of tar decomposition, tests were performed on the steam feed amount (steam/carbon ratio), input discharge power (specific energy input, SEI), total feed gas amount and the input tar concentration. In benzene, the optimal operating conditions of the gliding arc plasma 2 in steam to carbon (S/C) ratio, 0.98 $kWh/m^3$ in SEI, 14 L/min in total gas feed rate and 3.6% in benzene concentration. In naphthalene, 2.5 in S/C ratio, 1 $kWh/m^3$ in SEI, 18.4 L/min in total gas feed rate and 1% in naphthalene concentration. The benzene decomposition efficiency was 95%, and the energy efficiency was 120 g/kWh. The naphthalene decomposition efficiency was 79%, and the energy yield was 68 g/kWh.

폐타이어는 환경 문제와 관련하여 오염과 재활용의 양면성을 지니고 있다. 이와 같은 폐타이어를 재활용의 측면에서 고온의 열플라즈마를 이용하여 열분해하여 가연성 가스로의 전환을 시도하였다. 폐타이어를 산소가 배제된 상태에서 열분해하여 $CH_4$, $C_2H_2$, $C_4H_{10}$등과 같은 저분자량의 탄화수소가 주성분인 가연성 가스가 다량 발생함을 GC를 이용하여 확인할 수 있었다. 타이어의 공급량이 증가할수록 가연성 가스의 구성에서 $CH_4$의 비율이 증가하였으며, 플라즈마 전력이 증가할수록 $C_2H_2$가 증가함을 확인하였다. 발생가스는 $C_4H_{10}$ 또는 $C_2H_2$등의 탄화수소가 주를 이루었으며 그 비율은 70%이상이었다. 한편 char의 온도에 따른 질량 감소 경향을 TG로 분석하여 열플라즈마 내에서 타이어의 열분해 경향을 간접적으로 유추할 수 있었다.

We present a facile, yet versatile carbon nanofabrication method using electron beam lithography and resist pyrolysis. Various resist nanopatterns were fabricated using a negative electron beam resist, SAL-601, and were then subjected to heat treatment in an inert atmosphere to obtain carbon nanopatterns. Suspended carbon nanostructures were fabricated by wet-etching of an underlying sacrificial oxide layer. Free-standing carbon nanostructures, which contain 122 nm-wide, 15 nm-thick, and 2 ${\mu}m$-long nanobridges, were fabricated by resist pyrolysis and nanomachining processes. Electron beam exposure dose effects on resist thickness and pattern widening were studied. The thickness of the carbon nanostructures was thinned down by etching with oxygen plasma. An electrical biosensor utilizing carbon nanostructures as a conducting channel was studied. Conductance modulations of the carbon device due to streptavidin-biotin binding and pH variations were observed.

메탄의 플라즈마 열분해 방법에 의해 제조된 카본블랙을 $2\times10^{-2}torr$진공상태에서 $800,\;1300,\;2100^{\circ}C$의 온도로 열처리하여 원시료를 포함하여 물리적$\cdot$화학적 특성이 다른 4개의 시료를 준비하였다. 이 시료들을 리튬이차전지 양극 활물질인 $LiCoO_2$의 도전재로 사용하여 $Li/LiCoO_2$ 반쪽전지를 구성하고 변화된 도전재의 특성에 따른 셀의 전기화학적 특성 차이를 조사하였다 시료를 열처리하였을 때 표면화학그룹이 제거되고 전도도가 높아지면서 도전재로 사용하였을 때 사이클 특성 및 초기 방전용량이 향상되었다. 그러나, $2100^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 시료를 도전재로 사용한 경우에는 사이클 특성 및 rate capability가 저하되는 것으로 나타났다. 이것은 플라즈마 블랙의 열처리에 의한 구조 변화에 따른 전극 내 분산 특성의 변화가 전도도 특성과 복합적으로 작용하여 제작한 셀의 전기화학적 특성에 영향을 미치기 때문으로 사료된다 열처리 온도가 높아질수록 카본블랙 표면의 관능기가 제거되면서 플라즈마 블랙의 전도도가 증가하였으나, 흑연화의 진행으로 나타난 agglomeration의 증가가 전극 내 분산 특성을 저하시키는 것으로 사료된다 그 결과 $800^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 시료의 사이클 특성이 가장 우수하였다.

MgO thin films were deposited using $Mg(tmhd)_2$ as a precursor dissolved in a solvent by electrostatic spray pyrolysis. When a pure tetra hydro furan was used as a solvent, a large number of particles appeared on the MgO thin film surface due to homogeneous nucleation. However, by adding 1-butyl alcohol or 1-octyl alcohol to THF, homogeneous nucleation was restricted and the number density of the large particles was also drastically reduced. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the MgO films had a (100) preferred orientation regardless of the type of solvents used. Characterization using Fourier Transformed-Infrared and spectroscopic photometer revealed that the crystallized MgO thin films on the glass substrate had a high optical transmittance (> 85 %) in the visible range. Discharge characteristics of MgO thin films deposited by ESP method on an alternating-current plasma display panel were compared with a MgO thin film prepared by reactive radio-frequency planar magnetron sputtering.

The chemical compositions and pyrolysis characteristics of oil shales and source rocks distributed in the southwestern and southeastern parts of the Korean peninsular have been investigated. In order to compare the results of Korean samples with those of shales giving high oil yields, two Colorado oil shale samples and one Paris source rock samples were also investigated. Chemical compositions of the samples were analysed by means of gravimetry, CHN analysis, X-ray diffraction method, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry and atomic absorption spectrometry. A custom made pyrolyser and a Rock-Eval system were used for the pyrolysis studies. Pyrolyses of the samples were carried out by means of a temperature controlling device to $600^{\circ}C$ at a heating rate of $5^{\circ}C/min$ with a helium flow rate of $1200m{\ell}/min$. The results of pyrolysis study indicated that Colorado shale samples belong to type I and all the other samples belong to type II.
