초록

본 연구의 목적은 환경담배연기를 대표하는 주요 오염물질 중에 하나인 니코틴의 분해를 위해서 산화티타늄 광촉매를 적용할 수 있는지 여부에 대하여 기술적 평가하는 것이다. 광촉매로 코팅된 건축자재를 이용하여 니코틴을 분해하는 정도를 평가하기 위하여 네 개의 기초 실험을 수행하였다. 니코틴의 광촉매 분해와 관련된 다음의 다섯 변수를 조사하였다: 코팅 타일의 건조조건, 코팅 졸의 종류, 코팅횟수, 상대습도, 그리고 초기농도. 변수 시험에 앞서, 실험장치에 대한 니코틴의 흡착 여부를 평가하였다. 본 연구에서 조사된 변수 모두가 니코틴의 광산화분해능에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 낮은 온도와 긴 건조시간 조건과 비교할 때 높은 온도와 짧은 건조시간 조건에서 건조된 타일에서 보다 높은 니코틴 분해효율을 나타내었다. ST-KO3 졸로 코팅된 타일이 E-T 졸로 코팅된 타일 보다 높은 분해효율을 나타내었다. 코팅횟수가 증가할수록 광산화분해가 잘 일어났다. 높은 상대습도와 낮은 유입농도 조건에서 광산화분해가 잘 일어났다. 결과적으로, 환경담배연기에 포함된 니코틴을 광촉매로 코팅된 건축자재를 적용할 때에는 본 연구에서 평가된 다섯 가지 변수가 모두 고려되어야함이 제안되었다.

The current study evaluated the technical feasibility of the application of $TiO_2$ photocatalysis for the removal of nocotine which has well known as a representative material of environmental tobacco smoke(ETS). Four different preliminary experiments were performed for the evaluation of nicotine removal using photocatalyst-coated construction materials. The photocatalytic removal of nicotine was investigated for five parameters: dry condition of coating tiles, type of coating sol, number of coatings, relative humidity(RH), and input concentrations. Prior to performing the parameter tests, adsorption of nicotine onto the current experimental system was surveyed. All the variables tested in the present study exhibited to influence the photocatalytic decomposition of Nicotine. A dry condition of high temperature and short dry period presented higher photocatalytic oxidation(PCO) efficiency compared to that of low temperature and long dry period. ST-KO3 sol showed higher decomposition efficiency than E-T Sol. The PCO efficiency increased as the number of coating increased. High humidity and low input concentrations exhibited higher PCO efficiency. Consequently, it is noted that the five parameters tested in the present study should be considered for the application of photocatalyst-coated construction materials in cleaning nicotine in ETS.
