The ozonation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX) was performed at 20℃ using a pilot scale countercurrent bubble column reactor. Ozonation systems were combined with UV irradiation and TiO₂ addition. As the oxidation reaction proceeded in each treatment system, the pH of the sample decreased and in the O₃/UV/TiO₂ system, the pH change was the largest from 4.54 to 2.02. Under these experimental conditions, the scavenger impact of carbonate is negligible. The highest COD and TOC removal rate was observed in the O₃/UV/TiO₂ system due to the UV irradiation and the photocatalytic effect of TiO₂. Also, the highest mineralization ratio(ε) value is 0.2 in the O₃/UV/TiO₂ system, which means theoxidation capacity of the systems. The highest SMX degradation rate constants calculated by COD and TOC values (COD and TOC) were 2.15 × 10^-4 sec^-1 and 1.00 × 10^-4 sec^-1 in the O₃/UV/TiO₂ system, respectively. The activation energy (E_a) of ozone treatment follows the Arrhenius law. It was calculated based on _COD and _TOC. Each activation energy decreased in order of single O₃> O₃/TiO₂> O₃/UV > O₃/UV/TiO₂ system. The result showed that ΔH^≠ is more effective than ΔS^≠ in each SMX ozontaionsystem, that is characteristic of the common oxidation reaction.

Cotton fabric was treated with $TiO_2$-PEG600 dispersion colloid by pad-dry-cure and wet-fixation process to improve the performance properties as well as UV-cut effect. As the concentration of $TiO_2$/PEG increased tensile strength, crease resistance, stiffness of treated cotton fabric increased. Application of wet-fixation method provided a further improvement in tensile strength, crease resistance, stiffness of treated cotton fabric. Cotton fabric treated with $TiO_2$/PEG was more efficient in UV-cut property than untreated cotton.

This study was performed to provide basic information for evaluating the efficiency and applicable extent of photocatalysis and ozonation for the treatment of dye wastewater. The treatability of dye wastewater by $UV/TiO_2$ and $UV/TiO_2/O_3$ advanced oxidation process (AOP) was investigated under various conditions. The experiments were conducted in a batch reactor of 50 liters equipped with twelve UV Lamps of 16W. In $UV/TiO_2$ AOP, the removal efficiency of TCODMn and Color increased to 58% and 67% respectively with increasing UV intensity. Also, The removal efficiency of TCODMn and Color increased to 97% and 99% respectively with increasing $H_2O_2$. Acid area was more efficient than neutral and alkalic areas in wastewater treatment, and pH 5 was the most effective and the treatment efficiency continually increased as the amount of photocatalyst was increased. When the photocatalyst was increased, TCODMn was removed faster than Color.

광촉매 산화반응의 기본 운영조건-재순환을 속도 275 mL/min, 산소 공급량 2LPM, $UV+TiO_2+H_2O_2$(500 mg/l)을 새로운 광촉매 산화반응에 의한 유기물질 분해 수처리 공정으로 적용하였다. 탁도와 부유물질의 농도가 증가함에 따라 탁도 10 NTU-부유물질 농도 29 mg/l까지는 페놀분해가 감소하지 않고 약간 증가하는 추세를 보였고, 탁도 50 NTU-부유물질 농도 170 mg/l까지는 어느정도 페놀분해가 감소하고 있으나 탁도와 부유물질이 없는 경우와 비슷한 정도로 페놀 분해가 이루어졌다. 페놀 분해율은 유입페놀 농도가 증가할수록 감소하였다. 본 연구에서 이용한 $UV+TiO_2+H_2O_2$ 광촉매 산화반응은 정수처리공정의 고도산화법, 생물학적 폐-하수 처리의 후처리 공정으로 이용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

화학세정폐수에 함유되어 있는 citric acid의 효율적인 처리방안을 수립하기 위해 $UV/H_2O_2,\;UV/TiO_2/H_2O_2$, Photo-Fenton 산화방법을 이용하여 각각 citric acid의 제거효율 및 그에 따른 전력소비량을 평가하였다. 그 결과 조사된 최적 처리조건에서 $UV/H_2O_2,\;UV/TiO_2/H_2O_2$, Photo-Fenton 산화방법을 이용한 citric acid 농도에 근거한 TOC 제거효율은 각각 95.5%, 92.3%, 91.5%로 조사되었으며, 그에 따른 전력소비량은 $11.26kWh/m^3,\;3.85kWh/m^3,\;0.799kWh/m^3$으로 조사되었다. 이 결과에 의하면 세가지 광화학적 산화방법 모두 유기물질이 90% 이상 제거되어 citric acid의 분해에 효과적인 것으로 판단되었다. 그러나 Photo-Fenton 산화방법이 다른 방법에 비해 처리에 소요되는 반응시간이 짧은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 광화학적 산화방법의 운영비를 결정짓는데 중요한 요소인 전력소모량 측면에서도 Photo-Fenton 산화방법이 다른 방법에 비해 우수한 것으로 조사되어 본 연구에서 비교하는 세가지 방법 중 citric acid 처리에는 Photo-Fenton 방법이 효율적인면과 경제성면에서 가장 적합한 처리기술로 결론지을 수 있었다.

This study investigates the oxidative degradation of N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), a probable human carcinogen, by advanced oxidation process (i.e., UV process). The experiments were performed with various pH, initial concentration, UV intensity, and addition of $H_2O_2$ or $TiO_2$ on UV process. The results showed that the direct UV photolysis was the most effective treatment method. The lower pH, intial concentration and higher intensity of UV stimulated higher NDMA removal. However, addition of oxidant ($H_2O_2$, $TiO_2$) slows down photochemical treatment of NDMA since the oxidant can filter out the UV light and block it to reach the NDMA molecules. Dimethylamine (DMA) and nitrite were found to be a major byproduct from NDMA oxidation. To evaluate the chronic toxicity effects of UV-treated NDMA on the growth of microalgae, "Skeletonema costatum", was studied as long term experiments. Results demonstrated that after the 13 days exposure the chronic toxicity was decreased about 15% with application of UV process on NDMA degradation.

The optical properties of $TiO_2$ thin films dispersed in epoxy film, which were prepared with bis-(4, 4'-P-toluenesulfonylacidic isoproplyidene) cycolhexadiol(BTSPC) and UVI 6990 in dry sol-gel process, were investigated. In the case of irradiating UV light on $TiO_2$ thin films, how many nanopartlcles of $TiO_2$ are dispersed in epoxy film was investigated by AFM. The absorption peak of the films was showed at 360nm. Squarylium dye was dispersed in $TiO_2$-epoxy film. Photodegration concerned with amount of dye and time of UV light irradiation was investigated. UV light irradiation on the film occurred dramatical photodegration.

We use UV(ultraviolet)-$O_3$ treatment to increase the surface area and porosity of $TiO_2$ films in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). After the UV-$O_3$ treatment, surface area and porosity of the $TiO_2$ films were increased, the increased porosity lead to amount of dye loading and solar conversion efficiency was improved. Field emission scanning electron microscopy images clearly showed that the nanocrystalline porosity of films were increased by UV-$O_3$ treatment. The Brunauer, Emmett, and Teller surface area of the $TiO_2$ films were increased from $0.71cm^2/g$ to $1.31cm^2/g$ by using UV-$O_3$ treatment for 20 min. Also, UV-$O_3$ treatment of $TiO_2$ films significantly enhanced their solar conversion efficiency. The efficiency of the films without treatment was 4.9%, and was increased to 5.6% by UV-$O_3$ treatment for 20 min. Therefore the process enhanced the solar conversion efficiency of DSSCs, and can be used to develop high sensitivity DSSCs.

Nano-sized $TiO_2$ particles were produced by a premixed flame aerosol reactor, and they were immobilized on a mesh-type substrate in form of particulate film. The reactor made it possible maintaining the original particulate characteristics determined in the flame synthetic process. The particulate morphology and crystalline phase were not changed until the particulate were finally coated on the substrate, which resulted in the better performance of the photocatalytic conversion of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the ultraviolet $(UV)-TiO_2$ system. In the flame aerosol reactor, the various specific surface areas and the anatase weight fractions of the synthesized particles were obtained by manipulating the parameters in the combustion process. The performance of the $TiO_2$ particulate films was evaluated for the destruction of the VOCs under the various UV irradiation conditions. The decomposition rates of benzene and formaldehyde under the irradiation of UV-C of 254 nm in wavelength were evaluated to check the performance of $TiO_2$ film layer to be applied in air quality control system.
