Nanosized zeolite was prepared in an autoclave at a hydrothermal temperature range of 100 to $170^{\circ}C$. In TEM and particle-size analyses, the size of the nanosized powders was found to be 10-300 nm, and its distribution is uniform and spherical, depending on the hydrothermal temperature. XRD confirms that the nanosized powder is MFI zeolite.

제올라이트는 다양한 유기질 분리의 촉매제 및 광학, 화학 센서, 기체 분리 등의 고기능 소재로서 크게 주목받고 있으며, 그 중 MFI type(ZSM-5, Silicalite-1) 제올라이트는 주로 석유화학공정에 주로 이용되고 있고, 분리막으로서 이산화탄소의 분리/회수 및 물/유기 혼합물의 분리 등에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 분리막 제조에 유리할 것으로 판단되어지는 적합한 크기와 형상을 갖춘 나노크기의 제올라이트 분말을 수열합성법과 마이크로웨이브 합성법을 이용하여 합성하였으며, 위의 조건으로 다공질 알루미나 지지 체 위에서 알루미나/제올라이트 분리막 제조를 하는데 성공하였다. 또 한 다양한 조건(시간, 온도, 조성)에 따른 막의 두께변화와 균열발생정도를 관찰한 결과 합성시간, 건조온도에 따라서 같은 조건의 분리막 사이에서도 현격한 차이가 나타남을 알 수 있었다. 얻어진 MFI type제올라이트 분말과 분리막은 XRD, SEM, BET, TGA, FT-IR등의 분석수단을 이용하여 물성평가를 실시하였다.

[Ga]-MFI and H-ZSM-5 catalysts were synthesized under atmospheric pressure and used in the propylene aromatization. The effect of temperature on the product distribution was also investigated. The catalytic activities of the prepared catalysts were compared with the commercialized H-ZSM-5 which was converted from $NH_{4}$-ZSM-5. In the propylene aromatization, product distribution does not depend on the ratio of Si/$Ga_{2}$ with [Ga]-MFI catalyst, but depend on the ratio of Si/$Al_{2}$ with H-ZSM-5 catalyst [Ga]-MFI catalyst shows better dehydrogenation and alkylation activities than H-ZSM-5 catalyst The addition of Ga to H-ZSM-5 catalyst increases the conversion of propylene, selectivity to aromatics, and alkylation. In the propylene aromatization, the selectivity to aromatics slightly increased with increasing temperature with [Ga]-MFI catalyst, while slightly decreased with increasing temperature with H-ZSM-5 catalyst.

Intermediate pentasil borosilicate zeolite-like materials have been crystallized by a novel method named steam-assisted conversion, which involves vapor-phase transport of water. Indeed, amorphous powders obtained by drying Na2O.SiO2.B2O3.TBA2O gels of various compositions using different boron sources are transformed into crystalline borosilicate zeolite belonging to pentasil family structure by contact with vapors of water under hydrothermal conditions. Using a variant of this method, a new material which has an intermediate structure of MFI/MEL in the ratio 90:10 was crystallized. The results show that steam and sufficiently high pH in the reacting hydrous solid are necessary for the crystallization to proceed. Characterization of the products shows some specific structural aspects which may have its unique catalytic properties. X-ray diffraction patterns of these microporous crystalline borosilicates are subjected to investigation, then, it is shown that the product structure has good crystallinity and is interpreted in terms of regular stacking of pentasil layers correlated by inversion centers (MFI structure) but interrupted by faults consisting of mirror-related layers (MEL structure). The products are also characterized by nitrogen adsorption at 77 K that shows higher microporous volume (0.160 cc/g) than that of pure MFI phase (0.119 cc/g). The obtained materials revealed high surface area (~600 m2/g). The infrared spectrum reveals the presence of an absorption band at 900.75 cm-1 indicating the incorporation of boron in tetrahedral sites in the silicate matrix of the crystalline phase.

The production of biodiesel by transesterification of waste frying oil was conducted on various zeolite catalysts with different acidity and pore structure. $H^+$ ion exchanged MOR, MFI, FAU, and BEA zeolites were employed in the reaction with silicalite which has no strong acid sites. $H^+$ ion exchanged MOR(10) zeolite, which has more acid sites and stronger acid strength than other zeolites, exhibited the highest methyl esters yield as 95%. Dealumination to the HMOR zeolite induced decreasing of acid amount and acid strength. It brought about the decrease of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) yield. The yield increased linearly with enhancing of acid strength and increasing of amount of strong acid sites. The yields were independent on pore structure of the zeolites.

MFI(Mobil Five) structured hydrophobic ZSM-5 zeolite membrane was used for selective pervaporation of trichlorinated organic compounds(trichloromethane, trichloroethane, trichloroethylene) from their aqueous solutions. ZSM-5 zeolite membrane was hydrothermally synthesized on the inside of a porous stainless steel tube by secondary growth employing ZSM-5 seed powders. Separation factors for each binary mixtures were observed $16{\sim}66$ for trichloromethane/water, $3.3{\sim}4.6$ for trichloroethane/water and $1.4{\sim}8$ for trichloroethylene/water at the experimental conditions of the feed mole fraction from 0.0001 to 0.001 with temperature ranged $25{\sim}35^{\circ}C$.

$NH_3$-SCR has high NOx removal efficiency approximately 80~90%. Recently, the copper or iron ion-exchanged zeolite catalysts are widely used as automobile SCR catalysts. In this paper, the effect of the space velocity, temperature of reaction and $NO_2$ addition on the $NH_3$-SCR reaction were studied using various zeolite SCR catalysts. The test was conducted with small sized fresh catalysts in a laboratory fixed-bed flow reactor system using simulated gases. It is found that the activity of the BEA is better than MFI. It seems that three-dimensional framework and a wide pore entrance of BEA enhances the SCR activity. It is also found that low temperature activity of Cu-zeolites was better than Fe-zeolites. Once $NO_2$ was added, the NOx conversion activity of the Cu-zeolite was slightly enhanced, whereas remarkable improvement was achieved by Fe-zeolite.

에너지 사용량의 증가와 국제적인 환경 규제에 대응하기 위하여 환경친화적인 연료의 개발이 시급한 가운데 재생가능한 동식물성 유지로부터 생산되는 바이오 디젤에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히 자원 재활용 및 에너지 생산관점에서 폐식용유로부터 바이오디젤 원료로 사용하는 연구가 활발히 진행되어 왔다. 이러한 폐식용유를 이용한 바이오디젤 생산에서 폐식용유내 함유된 유리지방산 및 수분에 의해 효율적인 전이에스테르화 반응이 어렵기 때문에 이를 전처리 단계에서 제거되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 폐식용유내 유리지방산을 효과적으로 제거하기 위하여 회분식 반응기에서 MFI 제올라이트 촉매를 이용하여 Si/Al 몰비에 따른 산세기 및 산량의 변화에 따른 유리지방산 제거 특성을 조사해 보았다.

Ethylbenzene (EB) which has a similar physical properties with p-xylene (pX) was separated from EB/pX mixture by using MFI-type zeolite (TS-1, ZSM-5, and Silicalite-1) coated membranes. The zeolites were synthesized by microwave method to reduce the synthesis time and uniformly formed zeolite particles were coated on the ${\alpha}$-almina tubular support with a thickness of $3-4{\mu}m$. Separation factor and permeation flux of the synthesized zeolite coated membranes were measured to survey the best performance of ethylbenzene separation from different composition of EB/pX mixtures. When the EB/pX mixture of 5:5 molar ratio applied for the separation experiment, it represented the highest separation factor. We also have studied about the effect of the atomic composition of zeolites on the separation performance within the temperature range from 160 to $220^{\circ}C$. TS-1 showed the highest permeation flux of $1,666mol/m^{2*}s^*Pa$ and Silicate-1 showed the highest separation factor of 1.73 at $200^{\circ}C$ respectively.
