Recently the use of Pd catalyst have been continued to expand because of cost avaliabilityand performance advantages. Especially the Pd+Rh catalyst instead of the Pt+Rh catalyst had been used for most of three way catalysts because of the more stringent emission standards and its higher temperature effectiveness. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the design parameter impacts on the Pd+Rh cat-alyst for the automotive exhaust catalysts application. This study was investigated on the catalyst efficiency for the volume and the precious metal loading of the Pd+Rh ceramic monolithic cata-lyst. And experiments concerning the effects of volume and precious metal loading on Pd+Rh three way catalysts were conducted to examined the catalyst light-off temperature and conver-sion efficiency on higher volume demonstrated almost similar performance. But their effects on higher precious metal loading demonstrated considerably better performance.

귀금속촉매 존재하에서 암모니아 전환반응은 배가스내의 암모니아를 처리하는데 중요한 기술이다. 과잉용액 함침법을 이용하여 $Pt-Rh/Al_2O_3$, $Pt-Rh/TiO_2$, $Pt-Rh/ZrO_2$, $Pt-Pd/Al_2O_3$, $Pd-Rh/Al_2O_3$, $Pd-Rh/TiO_2$, $Pd-Rh/ZrO_2$, $Pt-Pd-Rh/Al_2O_3$, $Pd/Ga-Al_2O_3$, $Rh/Ga-Al_2O_3$, 그리고 $Ru/Ga-Al_2O_3$의 촉매를 제조하였다. 제조된 촉매는 1/4"의 반응기에 $10,000{\sim}50,000hr^{-1}$의 공간속도 조건하에서 촉매활성능 실험을 수행하였다. 암모니아의 초기농도는 2,000 ppm (나머지는 공기)으로 유지하였다. $T_{50}$는 암모니아 전환율이 50%일 때를 나타내는 온도를, $T_{90}$은 90%의 전환율일 때의 온도를 나타낸다. 알루미나를 담지체로 사용했을때의 $T_{50}$와 $T_{90}$은 다른 담체를 사용했을때의 $T_{50}$와 $T_{90}$보다 훨씬 낮았다. Pd-Rh촉매의 경우 $Al_2O_3$를 담체로 사용하였을 때 $ZrO_2$나 $TiO_2$보다 저온 활성이 우수하게 나타났다. 황산화물의 피독실험 결과 본 연구에서는 최종적으로 $Pt-Rh/Al_2O_3$ 촉매가 다른 촉매에 비하여 우수함을 보였다. 실험결과 Pt-Rh가 암모니아 전환공정에서 유용한 촉매라는 사실을 알 수 있다.

The catalytic activity of precious metals(Rh, Pd, Pt) and nickel catalysts supported on ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3\;and\;CeO_2$ in the partial combustion of methane(PCM) to syngas was investigated based on the product distribution in a fixed bed now reactor under atmospheric condition and also on analysis results by SEM, XPS, TPD, BET, and XRD. The activity of the catalysts based on the syngas yield increased in the sequence $Rh(5)/CeO_2{\geq}Ni(5)/CeO_2>>Rh(5)/Al_2O_3>Pd(5)/Al_2O_3>Ni(5)/Al_2O_3$. Compared to the precious catalysts, the syngas yield and stability of the $Ni(5)/CeO_2$ catalyst were almost similar to $(5)/CeO_2$ catalyst, and superior to these of any other catalysts. The syngas yield of $Ni(5)/CeO_2$ catalyst was 90.66% at 1023 K. It could be suggested to be the redox cycle of the successive reaction and formation of active site, $Ni^{2-}$ and the lattice oxygen, $O^{2-}$ produced due to reduction of $Ce^{4-}$ to $Ce^{3-}$.

The research was conducted to characterize of Rh-Pd-Pt TWC with a double-layer washcoat for gasoline vehicle. The physical characteristics on surface of catalyst were inspected by BET, SEM and TEM. The characteristics of catalytic reaction were examined by the TPD/TPR and CO-pulse chemisorption. The catalyst $6Hx(0.35\times11\times3)$ showed superior conversion performance after hydrothermal aging process, which was due to small difference of the surface area between. the fresh and the aged catalyst. The CO-chemisorption and surface area were superior in the 600 cpsi catalyst than other catalysts, this catalyst also shown the higher conversion efficiency of the exhaust emissions. From the TPR test, the conversion performance of the aged catalyst was decreased by the agglomeration and sintering of the PM and metal oxides. From the TPD result, it was found that the NO chemisorption was happed on the bottom-layer washcoat with Pd, and the NO chemisorption was re-happened on the upper-layer washcoat with Pt and Rh in the desorption process.

A three-way catalyst system of a natural gas vehicle (NGV) has characteristics of higher fuel consumption and higher thermal load than a lean-bum catalyst system. To meet stringent emission standards in the future, NGV with the lean-bum engine may need a catalyst system to reduce the amounts of HC, CO and NOx emission, although natural gas system has low emission characteristics. We conducted experiments to evaluate the conversion efficiency of the NOx reduction catalyst for the lean-burn natural gas engine. The NOx reduction catalysts were prepared with the ${\gamma}-Al_{2}O_3$ washcoat including Ba based on Pt, Pd and Rh precious metal. In the experiments, effective parameters were space velocity, spike duration of the rich condition, and the temperature of flowing model gas. From the results of the experiments, we found that the temperature for maximum NOx reduction was around $450^{\circ}C$, and the space velocity for optimum NOx reduction was around $30,000\;h^{-1}$ And we developed an evaluation model of the NOx reduction catalyst to evaluate the conversion performance of each other catalysts.

Various types of NOx storage catalysts for NGV's were designed, manufactured, and tested in this work on a model gas test bench. As in most of other studies on NOx storage catalyst, alkaline earth metal barium(Ba) was used as the NOx adsorbing substance. The barium-based experimental catalysts were designed to contain different amounts of Ba and precious metals at various ratios. Reaction tests were performed to investigate the NOx storage capacity and the NOx conversion efficiency of the experimental catalysts. From the results, it was found that when Ba loading of a catalyst was increased, the quantity of NOx stored in the catalyst increased in the high temperature range over 350. With more Ba deposition, the NOx conversion efficiency as well as its peak value increased in the high temperature range, but decreased in the low temperature range. The best of de-NOx catalyst tested in this study was catalyst B, which was loaded with 42.8 g/L of Ba in addition to Pt, Pd and Rh in the ratio of 7:7:1. In the low temperature range under $450^{\circ}C$, the NOx conversion efficiencies of the catalysts were lower when $CH_4$, instead of either $C_3H_6$ or $C_3H_8$, was used as the reductant.

알루미나에 담지한 귀금속 촉매를 이용하여 1.2-dichloroethane의 산화분해반응을 수행하였다. 실험결과 전환율은 Ru > Pt > Pd $${\sim_=}$$ Rh 순으로 높게 나타났으나, 완전산화 반응이 일어날 때의 주생성물인 $CO_2$로의 전환율 및 선택도를 기준으로 활성을 비교할 때 Pt/alumina가 Ru/alumina보다 활성이 높게 나타났다. $CO_2$ 및 vinyl chloride가 반응 주생성물로 검출되었는데, 반응 생성물 분포로부터 1.2-dichloroethane의 분해반응 경로는 1단계로 dehydrochlorination에 의해 vinyl chloride가 생성된 후 2단계로 vinyl chloride가 $CO_2$로 oxidation됨을 알 수 있었다. 염소를 포함하고 있는 반응 주생성물인 HCl의 영향을 살펴보기 위하여 반응물에 HCl을 첨가하여 반응을 수행하였는데 $300^{\circ}C$ 이하에서는 HCl이 촉매 표면에 흡착함에 따라 표면의 산도를 증가시켜 1.2-dichloroethane의 전환율은 증가하지만 $300^{\circ}C$ 이상에서는 HCl과 촉매 표면과의 상호작용이 약해져 전환율에는 큰 영향을 주지 않았다. 또한 촉매 표면에 가역적으로 흡착된 HCl은 1.2-dichloroethane의 $CO_2$로의 완전산화 반응을 방해함을 확인하였다.
