Partail oxidation(POX) of n-butane was investigated in this research by employing ceria-promoted Ni/calcium hydroxyapatite catalysts ($Ce_xNi_{2.5}Ca_{10}(OH)_2(PO_4)_6$ ; x = $0.1{\sim}0.3$) which had recently been reported to exhibit good catalytic performance in POX of methane and propane. The experiments were carried out with changing ceria content, $O_2/n-C_4H_{10}$ ratio and temperature. As the $O_2/n-C_4H_{10}$ feed ratio increased up to 2.75, n-$C_4H_{10}$ conversion and $H_2$ yield increased and the selectivity of methane and other hydrocarbons decreased. But with $O_2/n-C_4H_{10}$ = 3.0, $n-C_4H_{10}$ conversion and $H_2$ yield decreased. This is considered due to that too much oxygen may inhibit the reduction of Ni or induce the oxidation of Ni, which results in poor catalytic activity. The optimum $O_2/n-C_4H_{10}$ ratio lay between 2.50 and 2.75. $Ce_{0.1}Ni_{2.5}Ca_{10}(OH)_2(PO_4)_6$ showed the highest $n-C_4H_{10}$ conversion and $H-2$ yield on the whole. In durability tests, higher hydrogen yield and better catalyst stability were obtained with the $O_2/n-C_4H_{10}$ ratio of 2.75 than with the ratio of 2.5.

LFG (Land-Fill Gas) includes components of $CH_4$, $CO_2$, $O_2$, $N_2$, and water. The preparation of synthesis gas from LFG as a DME (Dimethyl Ether) feedstock was studied by methane reforming of $CO_2$, $O_2$ and steam over $NiO-MgO-CeO_2/Al_2O_3$ catalyst. Our experiments were performed to investigate the effects of methane conversion and syngas yield on the amount of LFG components over $NiO-MgO-CeO_2/Al_2O_3$ catalyst. Results were obtained through the methan reforming experiments at the temperature of $900^{\circ}C$ and GHSV of 8,800. The results were as following; it has generally shown that syngas yield increase with the increase of oxygen and steam amounts and then decrease. Highly methane conversion of above 98% and syngas yield of approximately 60% were obtained in the feed of gas composition flow-rate of 243ml/min of $CH_4$, 241ml/min of $CO_2$, 195ml/min of $O_2$, 48ml/min of $N_2$, and 450ml/min of steam, respectively, under reactor pressure of 1 bar for 200 hrs of reaction time. Also, it was shown that catalyst deactivation by coke formation was reduced by excessively adding oxygen and steam as an oxidizer of the methane reforming.

Catalytic activities of color and conductive carbon blacks in ethane decomposition for $CO_2-free$ hydrogen production were investigated. The ethane decomposition was carried out in a conventional fixed bed reactor under atmospheric pressure at 973-1173 K for 2 hours. When the decomposition in the presence of carbon black was compared with the non-catalytic thermal decomposition, the former exhibited significantly higher ethane conversion, higher C(s) selectivity and lower ethylene selectivity with small increase of the methane selectivity, which resulted in higher hydrogen yield. This indicates that carbon black is catalytically effective for dehydrogenation of ethane as well as subsequent decomposition of ethylene. All the carbon blacks exhibited stable catalytic activity with time. In durability tests, fluffy N-330 and BP2000 maintained their activities for 36 hours.

This study was carried out to acquire basic data for the bleaching of bamboo chemical pulp. Bamboo chemical pulps (alkaline sulfite (AS)-anthraquinone (AQ) pulp, Kraft pulp) were bleached with two kinds of multistage bleaching methods (CEDED, PDED) using the various kinds of bleaching agents. And, physical properties of bleached pulps were investigated. The conclusions obtained from the results were as follows; The yield of AS-AQ pulp bleached with four-stages bleaching method using the hydrogen peroxide and chlorine dioxide as a bleaching agents was higher than the other bleached pulps. The brightness of kraft pulp bleached with five-stages bleaching method using the chlorine and chlorine dioxide as a bleaching agents was higher than the other bleached pulps. The physical properties of kraft pulp bleached with four-stages bleaching method using the hydrogen peroxide and chlorine dioxide as a bleaching agents was higher than the other bleached pulps.

광합성 세균의 수소생성 향상을 위한 노력의 일환으로 수소생성능이 좋은 Rhodopseudomonas E15-1 을 고정화하여 수소생성에 적당한 조건을 조사하였다. 담체로 4%의 alginate를 사용하였을 때 수소생성량이 많았으며 고정화함에 따라 산소. 질소에 대한 억제효과를 덜 받았다. Alginate 고정화 세포는 그 지름을 2mm 이하로 하는 것이 겔내로의 확산저항이 적으므로 적당했다. 여러가지 유기물을 활용하여 수소를 생성할 수 있었으며 특히 citrate, fumarate와 malate 같은 유기산의 경우 30mM의 농도가 수소생성에 있어서 적당하였다. 또한 고정화세포를 이용한 계속적인 수소생성에 있어서 20일부터 활성이 감소하기는 하나 겔의 구조적 안정성은 30일까지 유지되었다.

유기성 폐기물을 이용하여 생산된 수소를 환원제로 활용하여 이산화탄소를 유용한 에너지원인 메탄으로 전환시키고자 하였다. 3 개월 동안 혐기성 미생물을 이산화탄소와 수소만을 이용하여 배양하였으며, 그 결과 acetogenotrophs의 영향에 의한 메탄의 생성은 없었고, 이산화탄소를 8 mL/min으로 주입하였을 때 이산화탄소와 수소의 주입비가 1:5에서 메탄의 생성량이 2.2 m$^3$/m$^3$ day로 가장 많았으며, 이때의 이산환탄소 저감률 또한 92%로 가장 우수하였다. 회분형태로 수소 생산과 메탄발효조와의 연계실험을 통하여, 연속적으로 수소를 생산하면서 이산화탄소를 같이 메탄발효조에 주입하여, 이산화탄소의 메탄으로의 전환을 확인하였다.

본 연구는 유기성 고형폐기물 처리에 적합한 벤치스케일 침출상 반응조를 이용하여 효율적인 산발효 및 수소발효의 거동특성을 살펴보았다. 산발효조는 혐기성 소화슬러지를 식종한 후 희석율 2.0, 3.0, $4.0d^{-1}$로 운전이 되었으며, 수소발효조는 열처리된 소화슬러지를 식종한 후 희석율 2.0, 4.0, $6.0d^{-1}$로 운전이 되었다. 산발효조는 희석율 $3.0d^{-1}$에서 운전되었을 때 최대의 COD 전환율 56.2%가 얻어졌으며 이때 전환된 COD는 모두 유기산으로 전환되었다. 반면에 수소발효조는 산발효조보다 높은 COD 전환율(49.3%)을 보여주지 못했지만, 높은 에너지 수율을 가지고 있을 뿐 아니라 친환경 청정에너지인 수소가스(전체 COD 중 5.1%)를 부산물로 얻을 수 있었다. 그러므로 처리목적에 따라 산발효나 수소발효를 유기성 고형폐기물에 적용할 수 있으며, 이는 혐기성처리 기술의 경제성을 향상시킬 수 있다.

Bacteria, fungi, and protozoa inhabiting the rumen, the largest chamber of the ruminants' stomach, release large quantities of hydrogen during the fermentation of carbohydrates. The hydrogen is used by coexisting methanogens to produce methane in energy-yielding processes. This work shows, for the first time, a fundamental possibility of using a hydrogen-rich fermentation gas produced by selected rumen ciliates to feed a low-temperature hydrogen fuel cell. A biohydrogen fuel cell (BHFC) was constructed consisting of (i) a bioreactor, in which a hydrogen-rich gas was produced from glucose by rumen ciliates, mainly of the Isotrichidae family, deprived of intra- and extracellular bacteria, methanogens, and fungi; and (ii) a chemical fuel cell of the polymer-electrolyte type (PEFC). The fuel cell was used as a tester of the technical applicability of the fermentation gas produced by the rumen ciliates for power generation. The average estimated hydrogen yield was ca. 1.15 mol $H_2$ per mole of fermented glucose. The BHFC performance was equal to the performance of the PEFC running on pure hydrogen. No fuel cell poisoning effects were detected. A maximum power density of $1.66\;kW/m^2$ (PEFC geometric area) was obtained at room temperature. The maximum volumetric power density was $128\;W/m^3$ but the coulombic efficiency was only ca. 3.8%. The configuration of the bioreactor limited the continuous operation time of this BHFC to ca. 14 h.
