The aim of this study is to investigate advantages that the catalytically supported combustor can have. For this purpose, the catalytic combustor was prepared which consisted of the catalyst bed and the thermal combustor at the downstream of the catalyst bed. The catalyst bed consisted of two-stage. Pd catalyst was installed in the first stage of the catalyst bed, and Pt catalyst was placed in the second stage. Results showed that the catalytically supported combustion had some advantages. One was that auto-ignition occurred in the thermal combustor. This can give merit that an igniter is not necessary to start flame ignition. Other was that the catalytically supported combustion was stable for lean mixture. When combustion of lean mixture was not supported by surface reaction it became unstable so that big combustion noise was created. Therefore, it is desirable to support flame by catalytic surface reaction to obtain the stable combustion of lean mixture.

최근 전자산업의 발달로 인하여 폐 인쇄회로기판(PCB) 발생량이 증대되고 있으며 이는 유해물질 및 유가금속을 함유하고 있어 환경오염의 방지 측면 및 유용자원의 회수 측면에 있어서 재활용이 시급하다. 또한, 자동차의 배출가스 내의 대기오염 물질의 저감을 위하여 장착된 자동차 촉매에 백금족 금속이 함유되어 있어 폐기되는 자동차 촉매에서의 유가금속 회수 또한 필요하다. 이러한 유가금속을 회수하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 건식방법의 일종으로 고온처리에 의하여 발생하는 유해물질이 적으며 공정이 매우 안정적이라고 알려진 아크 전기로를 이용한 회수 방안을 고찰하였다. 생석회, 전로슬래그, 동슬래그를 사용하여 용제의 종류에 따른 유가 금속의 회수율을 관찰하였으며 직류 및 교류에 의한 영향 그리고 전류의 방향에 따른 유가 금속의 회수율을 살펴보았다. 용제의 종류에 따른 회수율에 있어서 전로슬래그나 동슬래그를 용제로 사용하는 것이 생석회에 비해 용융회수에 더 유리함을 파악하였다. 폐 PCB에 존재하는 유가 금속의 회수에 있어서 직류 및 교류의 영향에 대한 결과는 전체적으로 직류 기저 消 경우가 높은 회수율을 나타내었으며 이는 자동차 폐촉매의 경우에도 같은 양상이 관찰되었다. 폐기되는 PCB 및 자동차 촉매에서의 유가 금속 회수에 관한 본 연구에서 아크로처리에 의한 유가금속의 회수율은 평균적으로 95～97%정도로 상당히 높은 것으로 관찰되었다.

The aim of this paper is to investigate combustion characteristics of lean premixed mixture stabilized by catalytic surface reaction. The catalytic combustor consisted of a catalyst bed and a thermal combustor. The catalyst bed was made of two stage, Pd catalyst in the first stage and Pt catalyst in the second stage. Auto ignition of lean mixture took place in the thermal combustor. Ignition temperature was about $810{\sim}820^{\circ}C$ at the fuel-air ratio of 1.5~3.0 % and the mixture velocity of 11~18m/sec. The position of flame front in the thermal combustor moved toward back as preheat temperature increased and fuel-air ratio decreased. The f1ame supported by surface reaction was stabilized without any flame stabilizers. NOx emissions from the catalytic combustor were below 2.0 ppm ($O_2$ 15 %) when gas temperature was limited below $1350^{\circ}C$. This result demonstrates that NOx emission from the catalytic combustor is much low comparing with conventional combustors.

In this experimental study, the effects of clean alternative fuels compatible with diesel combustion on nano-sized particle emission characteristics were investigated in a 0.5L auto-ignited single-cylinder engine with a compression ratio of 15. Because the number concentration of nano-sized particles emitted by automotive engine, that are suspected of being hazardous to human health and environment, might increase with engine fuel considerably and recently attracted attention. So a ultra-low sulfur diesel(ULSD), BD100(100% bio-diesel) and Di-Methyl Ether(DME) fuels used for this study. And, as a particle measuring instrument, a fast-response particle spectrometer (DMS 500) with heated sample line was used for continuous measurement of the particle size and number distribution in the size range of 5 to 1000nm (aerodynamic diameter). As this research results, we found that this measurements involving the large proportion of particles under size order of 300nm and number concentration of $4{\times}10^9$ allowed a single or bi-modal distribution to be found at different engine load conditions. Also the influence of oxygen content in fuel and the catalyst could be a dominant factor in controlling the nano-sized particle emissions in auto-ignited engine.

상용 알루미나($Al_2O_3$)에 담지된 $M/Al_2O_3$ (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu) 촉매를 함침법에 의해 제조하였으며, 이를 에탄을 자열개질반응에 의한 수소제조에 적용하였다. 각각의 촉매는 고유한 금속상을 가지는 것으로 나타났으며, 생성물의 분포는 활성금속의 종류에 크게 의존하였다. 제조된 촉매 중에서, $M/Al_2O_3$ 및 Co/$Co/Al_2O_3$는 에탄을 자열개질반응에서 매우 우수한 촉매활성을 보였다. 그러나 두 촉매상에서의 반응메커니즘은 서로 다른 것으로 나타났다. $Ni/Al_2O_3$ 촉매는 $500^{\circ}C$의 반응온도에서 100%의 에탄올 전환율을 보였으나, 수소 선택도에서는 시간에 따라 급격한 저하현상을 나타내었다. 한편 $Co/Al_2O_3$ 촉매는 수소 선택도 면에서 우수한 활성을 보였으나, 에탄올 전환율이 저조하여 수소 수율에는 큰 변화가 나타나지 않았다.

The optimum design of auto-catalyst needs a good compromise between the pressure drop and flow distribution in the monolith. One of the effective methods to achieve this goal is to use the concept of radially variable cell density. However, there has been no study of evaluating the usefulness of this method on light-off catalyst. We have computationally investigated the effectiveness of variable cell density technique applied to the light-off catalyst using a three-dimensional integrated CFD model. in which transient chemical reacting calculations are involved. Computed results show that variable cell density technique can reduce the accumulated emissions of CO and HC during the early 100sec of FTP cycle by 86.78 and 80.87%, respectively, The effect of air-gap between the monoliths has been also examined. It is found that air-gap has a beneficial effect on reducing pressure drop and cold-start emissions.

The optimal design of auto-catalyst needs a good compromise between the pressure drop and flow uniformity in the substrate. One of the effective methods to achieve this goal is to use the concept of radially variable cell density. But this method has not been examined its usefulness in terms of chemical behavior and conversion performance. In this work, two-dimensional performance prediction of catalyst coupled with turbulent reacting flow simulation has been used to evaluated the benefits of this method n the flow uniformity and conversion efficiency. The results showed that two cell combination of 93cpsc and 62 cpsc was the most effective for improved pressure drop and conversion efficiency due to balanced space velocity and efficient usage of geometric surface area of channels. It was also found that large temperature difference between the bricks in case that the edge of the frontal face of brick has too much lower cell density(less than 67% of cell density of the center of the brick). This study has also demonstrated that the present computational results show the better prediction accuracy in terms of CO, HC and NO conversion efficiencies compared to those of conventional 1-D adiabatic model by comparison with experimental results.

Light-off catalyst has been used for minimization of cold-start emissions. Improved cold-start performance of light-off catalyst needs the optimal design in terms of flow distribution, geometric surface area, precious metal loading, cell density and space velocity. In this study, these influential factors are numerically investigated using integrated numerical technique by considering not only 3-D fluid flow but also heat and mass transfer with chemical reactions. The present results indicate that uneven catalyst loading of depositing high active catalyst at upstream of monolith is beneficial during warm-up period but its effect is severely deteriorated when the space velocity is above 100,000 $hr^{-1}$ To maximize light-off performance, this study suggests that 1) a light-off catalyst be designed double substrate type; 2) the substrate with high GSA and high PM loading at face be placed at the front monolith; and 3) the cell density of the rear monolith be lower to reduce the pressure drop.

This study provides a background on the growth of Indian automobile industry under different regulatory regimes. It is observed that the international joint ventures have played a key role in the growth of the sector. The study further examines the motives for forming IJVs in the auto component sector and also identifies the criteria for choosing the joint venture partner to mitigate conflicts. These two specific attributes form the core towards transfer of technology, promoting innovation and also act as a catalyst for adopting and choosing appropriate technology. The study brings out the relationship between motives, partner selection criteria and performance of the IJVs. Results indicate that firms gave maximum importance to technological skills, quality control measures and proprietary knowledge in selecting IJV partners. It is also observed that the motives affect the partner selection criteria in terms of skill and resources needed from the partner.
