  • Patent number: 10815442
    Abstract: An apparatus for producing a natural gas using carbon dioxide and water in air that includes an air-compressing member, a water collecting member, a water storing member, a carbon dioxide collecting member, a water electrolysis member, and a methanation reaction member. The water electrolysis member electrolyzes water separated from compressed air. The methanation reaction member generates a natural gas by reacting hydrogen from the electrolysis and carbon dioxide from the carbon dioxide collecting member. A method of producing a natural gas using carbon dioxide and water in air includes supplying hydrogen electrolyzed from water separated from air and carbon dioxide collected from the dry air to a methanation reaction member to generate a natural gas. A natural gas-synthesizing equipment system includes an apparatus for producing a natural gas using carbon dioxide and water in air.

  • Patent number: 9956740
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a bowl-shaped structure, a bowl-shaped structure manufactured thereby, and a bowl array using the bowl-shaped structure, wherein the method for manufacturing the bowl-shaped structure comprises the following steps: putting into contact a first substrate, on which a particle alignment layer is formed, and a second substrate so as to transfer the particle alignment layer to the second substrate; forming a particle-thin film complex by coating the particle alignment layer that is transferred on the second substrate with a thin film formation substance; removing a portion of the thin film formation substance from the complex to expose particles, and then removing the exposed particles to form a template having a hole; and forming the bowl-shaped structure by coating a first substance on the surface of the hole of the template and then removing the template.

  • Patent number: 9938637
    Abstract: Provided are a method for preparing a thin film or a thick film, including: a first step of providing a porous substrate capable of supplying silicon; a second step of applying zeolite seed crystals onto the surface of the porous substrate; a third step of coating the seed crystals-applied porous substrate with an aqueous solution containing a structure-directing agent; and a fourth step of forming and growing a film from the seed crystals by the secondary growth above a temperature at which moisture inside the seed crystals-applied porous substrate prepared in the third step can form steam, and a film prepared by the method. The film manufacturing method of the present invention is a simple manufacturing process, and thus has high reproducibility and high throughput. Since a synthetic gel is not used and a solution is used, the unnecessary consumption of materials, environmental pollution, and waste of a synthetic gel can be prevented while not necessitating drying and washing of a film.
