The optimum conditions was synthesized for the formation of Magnetite ($Fe_3O_4$) by air bubbling with the suspensions obtained by mixing Ferrous sulfate ($FeSO_4\cdot 7H_2O$) and Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) solution in various values equivalent ratio($R=2NaOH/FeSO_4$) were studied. The changes of the structure were measured with XRD, $EM and BET. Equivalent ratio R: 0.65 was synthesized Goethite ($\alpha$-FeOOH), which becomes Maghemite ($\gamma=Fe_2O_3$) by dehydration, reduction and oxidation process. At the equivalent ratio over 1 (R>1), Magnetite ($Fe_3O_4$) was synthesized directly. The oxygen-deficient Magnetite ($Fe_3O_{4-\delta}$), which is obtained by flowing $H_2$ gas(100 ml/min) through the synthesis Magnetite at 350$\circ$C for 4 hr. By using it, was researched the decomposition reaction of $CO_2$. $CO_2$ was decomposed nearly 100% in 45 minutes by the oxygen-deficient Magnetite.

In this paper, the effect of oxygen component in fuel on the exhaust emissions has been investigated fur direct injection diesel engine. It was tested to estimate change of engine performance and exhaust emission characteristics for the commercial diesel fuel and oxygenated blended fuel which has seven kinds of mixed ratio. And, the effects of exhaust gas recirculation(EGR) on the characteristics of NOx emission have been investigated. Ethylene glycol mono-n-butyl ether(EGBE) contains oxygen component 27% in itself, and it is a kind of effective oxygenated fuel of mono-ether group that the smoke emission and unburned hydrocarbons of EGBE is reduced remarkably compared with commercial diesel fuel, that is, it can supply oxygen component sufficiently at higher loads and speeds in diesel engine. It was found that simultaneous reduction of smoke and NOx was achieved with oxygenated fuel and cooled EGR method.

LNG combustion characteristics of oxygen carrier particles were investigated in a batch type bubbling fluidized bed reactor. Three particles, NiO/bentonite, $NiO/NiAl_2O_4$, $CO_xO_y/CoAl_2O_4$, were used as oxygen carrier particles and LNG and air were used as reactants for reduction and oxidation, respectively. In the reducer, high gas conversion and high $CO_2$ selectivity were achieved for all three particles. In the oxidizer, NOx was not detected. The results of exhaust gas analysis showed that inherent $CO_2$ separation and NOx-free combustion are possible in the LNG fueled chemical-looping combustion system with NiO/bentonite, $NiO/NiAl_2O_4$ and $Ca_xO_y/CoAl_2O_4$ particles.

The aim of this paper was to study the effect of five different waste combinations (C/N 15, C/N 20, C/N 25, C/N 30, and control) of sewage sludge coupled with sawdust and cattle manure in a pilot scale rotary drum reactor, during 20 days of the composting process. Our results showed that C/N 30 possesses a higher temperature regime with higher % reduction in moisture content, total organic carbon, soluble biochemical oxygen demand and chemical oxygen demand; and higher % gain in total nitrogen and phosphorus at the end of the composting period implying the total amount of biodegradable organic material is stabilized. In addition, $CO_2$ evolution and oxygen uptake rate decreased during the process, reflecting the stable behavior of the final compost. A Solvita maturity index of 8 indicated that the compost was stable and ready for usage as a soil conditioner. The results indicated that composting can be an alternate technology for the management of sewage sludge disposal.

This study is a theoretical analysis and experimental effect of oxygen concentration, exhaust velocity and trap inlet temperature on particulate ignition temperature with installation of ceramic filter trap in diesel engine. So the following results are obtained. 1, Based on the fundamental experiments of the regeneration process, the analytical model was developed and the results from the analytical model agreed with the experiments, then the validity of the model was proved. 2, The ignition temperature for accumulated particulate was proportional to the exhaust velocity and it was known that the optimum exhaust velocity was about 15m/sec. 3, The ignition temperature for accumulated particulate was inversely proportional to the oxygen concentration and the trap inlet temperature, and a minimum oxygen concentration of 5% was required to sustain regeneration. 4, This experimental filter trap(EX-66) is found about 30% of smoke reduction efficiency in comparison with existing muffler.

The electrical conductivities of the yttria (8mol%) stabilizedzirconia-ceria solid solutions were measured as a function of oxygen partial between 80$0^{\circ}C$ and 100$0^{\circ}C$ using 4-probe d.c. method Under pure oxygen atmosphere the oxygen ionic conductivity of CeO2-ZrO2 decreased with the concentration of CeO2 Under reducing condition electronic conduction due to the redox equilibrium of Ce ion was observed. Total ionic and electronic conductivities fitted by a defect model enabled to determine the electronic transference number(tei) which increased with the concentration of CeO2 and with the degree of reduction.

The anodic reaction of hydrogen/oxygen gas mixture at platinum or palladium electrode interfacing with a solid polymer electrolyte was investigated using AC impedance method. The impedance spectrum of the electrode reactions of the mixture depends on the gas composition, electrode roughness, the mode of electrochemical operation and the cell potential. For electrolysis mode of operation, the spectrum taken for the reaction on a rough platinum electrode for the gas mixture revealed clearly that the local anodic reduction of oxygen gas takes place concurrently with the anodic oxidation of hydrogen gas.

Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy has been applied to the characterization of titania supported molybdena. The equilibrium adsorption method seemed to produce molybdena species homogeneously dispersed on the support. Even under an oxidizing environment, molybdena species appeared to be able to possess coordinatively unsaturated $Mo^{5+}$ ions owing to the natures of TiO$_2$, i.e. oxygen deficiency and permeability toward oxygen diffusion. At the initial stage of reduction, the terminal double bond oxygen ( Mo=O ) seemed to be removed, generating presumably $Mo^{4+}$. The carbonyl bands at 2198 and 2190 $cm^{-1}$ observed after CO exposure were attributed to the $Mo^{5+}{\cdots}CO\;and\;Mo^{4+}\;{\cdots}CO$ complexes, respectively, while the band pair at 2136 and 2076 $cm^{-1}$ to $Mo^{4+}(CO)_2$.

The RGO with controllable oxygen functional groups is a novel material as the active layer of resistive switching memory through a reduction process. We designed a nanoscale conductive channel induced by local oxygen ion diffusion in an Au / RGO+GQD / Al resistive switching memory structure. A strong electric field was locally generated around the Al metal channel generated in BIL, and the local formation of a direct conductive low-dimensional channel in the complex RGO graphene quantum dot region was confirmed. The resistive memory design of the complex RGO graphene quantum dot structure can be applied as an effective structure for charge transport, and it has been shown that the resistive switching mechanism based on the movement of oxygen and metal ions is a fundamental alternative to understanding and application of next-generation intelligent semiconductor systems.

Developing oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts is essential to accomplish viable CO₂ and water electrolysis. Herein, we report the fabrication and OER performance of Ni-foam (NF)-immobilized Ni₆ nanoclusters (NCs) (Ni₆/NF) prepared by a dip-coating process. The Ni₆/NF electrode exhibited a high current density of 500 mA/cm² for the OER at an overpotential as low as 0.39 V. Ni₆/NF exhibited high durability in an alkaline solution without corrosion. Electrokinetic studies revealed that OER can be easily initiated on Ni6 NC with fast electron-transfer rates. Finally, we demonstrated stable CO₂-to-CO electroreduction using an NC-based zero-gap CO₂ electrolyzer operated at a current density of 100 mA/cm² and a full-cell potential of 2.0 V for 12 h.
