The effect of operating conditions (temperature and the partial pressures of H2 and CO) on the reaction rate of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) were investigated by carrying out experiments according to a Box-Behnken design (BBD), and were mathematically modeled by using response surface methodology (RSM). The catalyst used was a nano-structured cobalt/manganese oxide catalyst, which was prepared by thermal decomposition. The rate of synthesis was measured in a fixed-bed micro reactor with $H_2/CO$ molar feed ratio of 0.32-3.11 and reactor pressure in the range of 3-9.33 bar at space velocity of $3600h^{-1}$ and a temperature range of 463.15-503.15 K, under differential conditions (CO conversion below 2%). The results indicated that in the present experimental setup, the temperature and the partial pressure of CO were the most significant variables affecting reaction rate. Based on statistical analysis the quadratic model of reaction rate of FTS was highly significant as p-value 0.0002.

Fisher-Tropsch synthesis for the production of hydrocarbon from syngas was investigated on 20% cobalt-based catalysts (20% Co/HSA, 20% Co/Si-MMS), which were prepared by home-made supports with high surface areas such as high surface alumina (HSA) and silica mesopores molecular sieve (Si-MMS). In the gas phase reaction by syngas only, 20% Co/Si-MMS catalyst was shown in higher CO conversion and lower carbon dioxide formation than 20% Co/HSA, whereas the olefin selectivity was higher in 20% Co/HSA than in 20% Co/Si-MMS. In the effect of n-hexane added in syngas, the selectivities of $C_{5+}$ and olefin were increased by comparing the supercritical phase reaction with the gas phase reaction in addition to reduce unexpected methane and carbon dioxide.

고분자 전해질 연료전지(Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell, PEMFC) 상용화를 위해 해결해야 할 과제 중의 하나인 가격 저감을 이루기 위한 방법으로 백금 촉매를 대신할 비귀금속(non-precious metal) 촉매 제조에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 비귀금속 촉매의 합성은 산소환원반응(oxygen reduction reaction, ORR)의 활성점으로 알려져 있는 코발트-질소(Co-N) 결합을 형성하기 위해 질소를 포함하는 폴리아닐린(PANI)과 코발트염(Co precursor), 그리고 카본 블랙(C)을 일정한 비율대로 혼합한 후 특별한 열처리 과정 없이 단순한 화학적 환원법에 제조되었다. 제조된 Co-PANI-C 복합 촉매의 구조 분석을 위해 X-선 회절분석(X-ray diffraction, XRD)과 열중량분석(thermogravimetric analysis, TGA)을 실시하였고, ORR에 대한 활성을 평가하기 위해 rotating disk electrode(RDE) 및 rotating ring disk electrode(RRDE) 측정을 수행하였다. 그 결과 Co-PANI-C 복합 촉매는 ORR반응에 대한 개시 전압은 백금 촉매보다 60 mV 밖에 낮지 않은 값을 보였지만, 반응에 의해 발생되는 환원 전류는 여전히 백금 촉매보다 낮은 값을 보였다. 이 밖에도 전극 회전 속도에 따른 ORR 특성 변화, 전압 사이클 회수에 따른 내구성 변화, 연료전지 적용 시 성능 변화에 대해 논의할 것이다.

This study reports on the synthesis of carbon nanofibers via chemical vapor deposition using Co and Cu as catalysts. In order to investigate the suitability of their catalytic activity for the growth of nanofibers, we prepared catalysts for the synthesis of carbon nanofibers with Cobalt nitrate and Copper nitrate, and found the optimum concentration of each respective catalyst. Then we made them react with Aluminum nitrate and Ammonium Molybdate to form precipitates. The precipitates were dried at a temperature of $110^{\circ}C$ in order to be prepared into catalyst powder. The catalyst was sparsely and thinly spread on a quartz tube boat to grow carbon nanofibers via thermal chemical vapor deposition. The characteristics of the synthesized carbon nanofibers were analyzed through SEM, EDS, XRD, Raman, XPS, and TG/DTA, and the specific surface area was measured via BET. Consequently, the characteristics of the synthesized carbon nanofibers were greatly influenced by the concentration ratio of metal catalysts. In particular, uniform carbon nanofibers of 27 nm in diameter grew when the concentration ratio of Co and Cu was 6:4 at $700^{\circ}C$ of calcination temperature; carbon nanofibers synthesized under such conditions showed the best crystallizability, compared to carbon nanofibers synthesized with metal catalysts under different concentration ratios, and revealed 1.26 high amorphicity as well as $292m^2g^{-1}$ high specific surface area.

금을 공침법으로 고분산시켜 제조한 촉매와 함침법으로 제조한 금 및 코발트 촉매상에서의 부타디엔과 펜타디엔의 수소화 활성 및 생성물 분포를 상압 유통식 반응기에서 조사하여, 고분산 금 입자의 수소화 반응특성 및 그의 역할에 대하여 검토하였다. 고분산된 담지 금 촉매의 수소화 활성은 함침법으로 제조한 촉매에 비하여 크게 증가하였고, 100% 전환율에서도 부분 수소화만이 진행되어 부텐의 선택율은 거의 100%이었다. 그러나 코발트 담지 촉매에서는 부탄까지 쉽게 수소화되었다. 이와 같은 금 촉매의 특성은 담체와의 계면에 존재하는 금이 수소화 적절한 친화력을 가지는 독특한 성질 때문으로 생각되었다. 고분산 담지 금 촉매의 부타디엔 및 펜타디엔에 대한 생성물 분포에서 각각 1-부텐이 60~67%, 그리고 2-펜텐이 약 62%로 거의 일정하게 얻어졌는데, 이는 공역디엔의 통계학적 수소부가 개념으로 설명할 수 있었다.

석유자원의 고갈에 따라 전 세계적으로 석유대체자원인 석탄, 천연가스 및 바이오매스로부터 합성 연료 및 화학물질을 제조하기 위한 피셔트롭스 반응에 관한 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 일반적으로 이러한 피셔트롭스 반응은 주로 스케일 업이 비교적 용이한 고정층 반응기를 사용한 기상반응이 적용되고 있으나, 촉매 기공에서의 확산제어 및 왁스의 생성에 따른 촉매의 비활성화 등의 문제점에 기인하여 최근 들어 초임계 유체를 이용한 반응이 많이 연구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 피셔트롭스 반응에 관한 담지 촉매 및 반응매체에 관한 좀 더 심도 있는 영향을 고찰하기 위해 다양한 담지촉매를 제조하여 피셔트롭스 반응에 관한 기상반응과 초임계 반응을 비교, 고찰하였다.

A novel Cu-Co-O composite nanocatalyst was designed and prepared for the ozonation of phenol. A synergistic effect of copper and cobalt was observed over the Cu-Co-O composite nanocatalyst, which showed higher activity than either copper or cobalt oxide alone. In addition, the Cu-Co-O composite revealed good activity in a wide initial pH range (4.11-8.05) of water. The fine dispersion of cobalt on the surface of copper oxide boosted the interaction between catalyst and ozone, and the surface Lewis acid sites on the Cu-Co-O composite were determined as the active sites. The Raman spectroscopy also proved that the Cu-Co-O composite was quite sensitive to the ozone. The trivalent cobalt in the Cu-Co-O composite was proposed as the valid state.

To verify the viability of Co, Ru and Zr-based catalyst for $CO_2$ (dry) reforming reaction, catalysts were fabricated using cordierite, silicon carbide and rota monolithic substrates, and they were compared with the conventional $Co-Ru-Zr/SiO_2$ catalyst in terms of performance and durability. Cordierite monolith was showed high activity with the least amount of active component. In addition, when Cordierite monolith was coated with Co-Ru-Zr in various ways, most excellent performance was showed at a precursor solution coating method. In particular, when 0.9 wt% Co-Ru-Zr/Cordierite was used for reaction, it was observed that 95% $CO_2$ conversion was maintained for 300 h at $900^{\circ}C$.

Carbon nanotubes(CNTs) are grown by using Co catalyst metal. CNTs fabricated by PECVD(plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition) method are studied in terms of surface reaction and surface structure by TEM and Raman analysing method and ate analysed in its electrical field emission characteristics with variation of space between anode and cathode. Acetylene(C$_2$H$_2$) gas is used as the carbon source, while ammonia and hydrogen gas are used as catalyst and dilution gas. The CNTs grown by hydrogen(H$_2$) gas plasma indicates better vortical alignment, lower temperature process, and longer tip, compared to that grown by ammonia(NH$_3$) gas plasma. The CNTs fabricated with Co(cobalt) catalyst metal and PECVD method show the multiwall structure in mid-circle type in tip-end and the inner vacancy of 10nm. Emission properties of CNTs indicate the turn-on field to be 2.6 V/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ We suggest that CNTs can be possibly applied to the emitter tip of FEDs and high brightness flat lamp because of low temperature CNTs growth, low turn-on field.
