Seven Escherichia coli cells defective with aerobic growth were isolated by the insertion of ${\lambda}placMu53$, a hybrid bacteriophage of ${\lambda}$ and Mu, which created a transcriptional fusion to lacZY. These insertion mutant cells were tested on an XG ($5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-{\beta}-D-galactopyranoside$) medium for anaerobic expression of lacZ by fusion to a promoter. The chromosomal DNA from these strains were digested by EcoRI, and the EcoRI fragments that contained the fused gene and lacZ sequence were identified by Southern hybridization, using lacZ containing plasmid as a probe. The EcoRI fragment from each strain was cloned and sequenced. The sequence data were compared with the GenBank database. The mutated gene of three strains, CYT4, CYT5, and OS11, was found to be identical, and it was nrdAB that encoded ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase. The gene nrdAB was at min 50.5 on the Escherichia coli linkage map and 2,348,084 on the physical map, and is involved in hemAe-related reduction-oxidation reaction. OS6 and OS14 mutant strains had insertion at min 8.3 and the mutated gene was hemB. The hemB encodes 5-aminolevulinate dehydratase or porphobilinogen synthase. The OS3 mutant had insertion in cydB at min 16.6. The cydAB encodes cytochrome d oxidase. In the case of OS1, the fusion was made with sucA, the E1 component of ${\alpha}-ketoglutarate$ dehydrogenase.

The performance of disk-type catalytic filters impregnated by TiO$_2$ or TiO$_2$-3Al$_2$O$_3$ㆍ 2SiO$_2$ supports and V$_2$O$_{5}$ catalyst was evaluated for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with ammonia as a reductant. XRD, FT -IR, BET and SEM were used to characterize the catalytic filters prepared in this work. Optimal V$_2$O$_{5}$ loading and reaction temperature for V$_2$O$_{5}$/TiO$_2$ catalytic filters were 3-6 wt.% and 350-40$0^{\circ}C$ at GHSV 14,300 $hr^{-1}$ in the presence of oxygen, respectively. With increasing the V$_2$O$_{5}$ loading from 0.5 to 6 wt%, NO conversion increased from 24 to 96% at 40$0^{\circ}C$ and 14.300$hr^{-1}$, and maintained at 80% over in the V$_2$O$_{5}$ loading range of 3-6 wt.% and then dropped at V$_2$O$_{5}$ loading of 7wt.% over. In comparing V$_2$O$_{5}$/ TiO$_2$ and V$_2$O$_{5}$/ TiO$_2$-3Al$_2$O$_3$ㆍ2SiO$_2$ catalytic fillers, which have same 3wt.% V$_2$O$_{5}$ loading, the V$_2$O$_{5}$/ TiO$_2$-3A1$_2$O$_3$ㆍ2SiO$_2$ catalytic filter showed higher activity than V$_2$O$_{5}$/ TiO$_2$ catalytic filter, but higher differential pressure drops owing to its low air permeability. low air permeability.

본 연구에서는, $150{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ 영역에서 $NO_x$를 제어하기 위한 ball mill 기법을 사용한 선택적 환원촉매(SCR)의 연구를 수행하였다. 제조된 촉매들의 구조적 특성 및 산화가 특성을 확인하기 위하여 XRD, BET, XPS 분석을 수행하였다. 다양한 ball mill 기법에 의해 제조된 촉매는 $250^{\circ}C$ 이하의 온도구간에서의 활성의 차이를 보였다. 이중 가장 우수한 탈질효율을 갖는 촉매를 기준으로, ball mill 시간이 3시간일 때 가장 높은 활성을 나타내었다. XPS 분석 결과, vanadium의 비 화학양론종의 존재 및 원자 수 증가가 활성증진에 유리하게 작용한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 $O_2$ on-off 실험을 통해 격자산소량의 양과 탈질 효율과의 상관관계를 나타내었고, 이는 서로 비례관계에 있음을 확인하였다.

To enhance the performance of cathodes at low temperatures, a Cu-coated cathode is prepared, and its electrochemical performance is examined by testing its use in a single cell. At $620^{\circ}C$ and a current density of $150mAcm^{-2}$, a single cell containing the Cu-coated cathode has a significantly higher voltage (0.87 V) during the initial operation than does that with an uncoated cathode (0.79 V). According to EIS analysis, the high voltage of the cell with the Cu-coated cathode is due to the dramatic decrease in the high-frequency resistance related to electrochemical reactions. From XPS analysis, it is confirmed that the Cu is initially in the form of $Cu_2O$ and is converted into CuO after 150 h of operation, without any change in the state of the Ni or Li. Therefore, the high initial cell voltage is confirmed to be due to $Cu_2O$. Because $Cu_2O$ is catalytically active toward $O_2$ adsorption and dissociation, $Cu_2O$ on a NiO cathode enhances cell performance and reduces cathode polarization. However, the cell with the Cu-coated cathode does not maintain its high voltage because $Cu_2O$ is oxidized to CuO, which demonstrates similar catalytic activity toward $O_2$ as NiO.

아연금속-공기전지는 기존의 이차전지보다 높은 중량당 에너지 밀도, 낮은 제조단가를 가짐과 동시에 소재적으로 친환경적이다. 소형 및 중대형 전력 저장 시스템, 전기자동차, 스마트 휴대기기의 상용화에 있어 최우선시 되고 있는 것은 배터리의 충 방전 능이다. 따라서 환원 촉매의 높은 과전압, 산화 전극의 불안정성 및 비가역성, 액체 전해질 사용에 따른 여러 문제점을 해결하여야 한다. 본 총설에서는 공기극 막의 손상 방지 기술, 아연금속 전극의 구조 개선을 통한 충전효율 저하 방지 기술, 부반응 및 부동태화를 막기 위한 하이브리드 전해질 도입 등의 최근 기술적 이슈와 연구동향을 소개하고자 한다.

In this study, a flat-type photocatalytic reactor is applied under solar irradiation for simultaneous treatment of target pollutants: reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) and oxidation of EDCs (BPA, EE2, E2). An immobilized type of photocatalyst was fabricated to have self-grown nanotubes on its surface in order to overcome limitations of powdery photocatalyst. Moreover, Ti mesh form was chosen as substrate and modified to have both larger surface area and photocatalyst content. Ti mesh was anodized at 50V and $25^{\circ}C$ for 30min in the mixed electrolytes ($NH_4F-H_2O-C_2H_6O_2$) and annealed at $450^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours in ambient oxygen to have anatase structure. Surface characterization was done with SEM and XRD methodologies. Fabricated NTT was applied to water treatment, and coexisting Cr(VI) and organics (EDCs) enhanced each other's reactions by scavenging holes and electrons and thus impeding recombination. Also, several experiments were conducted outdoor under direct sunlight and it was observed that both solar-tracking and applying modified photocatalyst were proven to enhance reaction efficiency.

본 연구에서는 광촉매 산화반응을 이용한 반응성염료(Reactive Black 5)의 오염부하 저감율(TOC, 색도 제거율)을 조사하였다. 광촉매 반응활성의 주요한 인자로서 염료농도, $TiO_2$ 주입량 및 pH조건을 최적화하였으며, 실험에 적용된 최적의 조건은 각각 100 mg/L, 2g/L, pH 4.9였다. 용존산소의 경우에는 산소의 농도가 증가함에 따라 처리속도도 함께 증가하였다. 새로운 $TiO_2$를 적용한 경우와 MF 세라믹 분리막에 의해 재생된 $TiO_2$를 각각 적용하여 실험한 결과 색도 제거율과 처리속도에는 약간의 차이를 보였으나, 반응 전반에는 영향을 주지 않았다.

The development of cost-effective electrocatalysts with high durability is one of the most important challenges for the commercialization of polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs). The durability of the electrocatalyst has been studied in terms of structural change in the active metal and the support. In particular, in fuel cell vehicles, degradation of the carbon-based support is known to have a significant effect on the electrocatalyst deterioration since the start-up/shut-down cycle is frequently repeated. The requirements for the support of the electrocatalyst include high surface area, electrical conductivity, chemical stability, and so on. In this study, we propose the evaluation methods for choosing better support materials and present the physicochemical properties that promising carbon supports should have. Three kinds of carbon materials with different crystallinity are compared. From in-depth study using X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and accelerated stress test, it is clearly confirmed that the durability of carbon-supported electrocatalysts is closely related to the physicochemical properties of the carbon supports.

본 연구에서는, NH₃-SCO (selective catalytic oxidation) 반응에서 RuTi 촉매 제조 시 소성온도에 따른 영향을 확인하였다. RuTi 촉매는 습윤 함침법을 이용하여 제조되었고, 공기 분위기에서 400~600 ℃로 4 h 동안 소성되었다. 촉매는 RuTi x00로 표기되었으며, x00는 소성온도를 의미한다. XRD, TEM, H₂-TPR 분석에 따르면, RuTi x00 촉매는 소성온도가 증가할수록 활성금속의 분산도가 감소하는 것을 나타내었다. XPS, NH₃-TPD 분석을 통하여, 낮은 분산도를 갖는 촉매는 표면 흡착 산소 종(O_β) 및 NH₃ 흡착량이 감소하는 특성을 나타내었다. 따라서 RuTi 400 촉매는 TiO₂ 표면에 활성금속이 가장 잘 분산되었으며, NH₃ 제거 효율이 가장 우수하였다.
