본 연구에서는 수용액 내의 오염물질 분해를 위하여 개발한 광촉매가 코팅된 실리카 비드의 광분 해반응 사용에 따른 활성저하 문제를 해결하기 위하여 반응에 사용한 비드의 활성을 향상시킬 수 있는 재생 방법에 관한 실험을 수행하였다. 비드의 재생방법으로 표면 세정법을 선택하였으며, 세정액으로는 물(증류수), 계면활성제, 아세톤 등 세정력이 서로 다른 3종의 용액을 사용하였다. 재생 과정은 서로 다른 3종의 세정액으로 반응에 사용하여 활성이 떨어진 비드를 세정한 후, 소성온도를 $100^{\circ}C$, $200^{\circ}C$, $300^{\circ}C$로 달리하여 30분간 처리하였다. 재생 처리과정은 각 1~3회 반복 수행하였으며, 서로 다른 조건에서 재생된 비드의 활성은 수용액 내의 methylene blue 광분해율로 측정하였다. 연구결과, 재생한 비드의 활성은 아세톤으로 세정한 후, $100^{\circ}C$에서 30분간 소성하였을 때 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 이러한 기초 연구결과를 토대로 현재보다 효율적인 재생 기술에 관한 연구를 수행 중에 있다.

This paper reports that the electronic properties at a $P3HT/TiO_2$ interface associated with exciton dissociation and transport can be tailored by the insertion of a graphene quantum dot (GQD) layer. For donor/acceptor interface modification in an $ITO/TiO_2/P3HT/Al$ photovoltaic (PV) device, a continuous GQD film was prepared by a sonication treatment in solution that simplifies the conventional processes, including laser fragmentation and hydrothermal treatment, which limits a variety of component layers and involves low cost processing. The high conductivity and favorable energy alignment for exciton dissociation of the GQD layer increased the fill factor and short circuit current. The origin of the improved parameters is discussed in terms of the broad light absorption and enhanced interfacial carrier transport.

We have investigated structural and electrical properties of $PbZr_{0.3}Ti_{0.7}O_{3}$ (PZT) thin films deposited by pulsed laser deposition methods. PZT thin films have been deposited on $LaMnO_3$ (LMO) bottom electrodes with $LaAlO_3$ (LAO) substrates during different deposition times. High-resolution x-ray diffraction data have shown that all the PZT films and bottom electrodes are highly oriented. The thickness of each film is determined by field-emission scanning electron microscope. We have also observed root mean square roughness by using atomic force microscopy mode, and local polarization distribution and retention behavior of a ferroelectric domain by using piezoelectric force microscopy mode. A PZT/LMO structure has shown good ferroelectric and retention properties as the media for nano-storage devices.

In this study, recycling methods of nano $TiO_2$-coated silica-bead were conducted in order to solve a deactivation problem of bead that had been invented for decomposition of pollutants in aqueous solution. Surface cleansing was selected as the recycling method for used beads. The surface cleansing was done with four different solutions such as distilled water, surfactant, acetone, and ethyl alcohol(ethanol). The recycling process consists of cleansing and calcination. After cleaning the used (deactivated) beads, calcination was done at $100^{\circ}C$, $200^{\circ}C$ and $300^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes, respectively. This process was repeated three times. The activity of the recycled bead was measured by photo-degradation of methylene blue. The result shows that acetone cleansing and calcination at $100^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes was the most efficient recycling method.

Recently, issues related to the quality of concrete have continuously resulted in surface quality problems, such as the exfoliation of concrete surfaces due to the cost reduction of cement and poor quality fine aggregate, scaling of surfaces caused by laitance, and plastic shrinkage cracks. Prompted by social issues, the application of a photo catalyst to road structures is being attempted to solve the environmental problems caused by fine dust and automobile exhaust. In this study, chemical admixtures were developed to improve the surface quality of concrete and to apply and distribute titanium dioxide in nanoscale sizes to provide basic data for the development of a photocatalyst-curing agent. As a result of the experiment, silicon and silane were reviewed as a raw material as a curing agent to develop a high performance curing agent with better film performance than conventional curing agents because they could form a film quickly on a fresh concrete surface. The distributed stability of the ultrasonic disperser showed the best performance through an outdoor test for four weeks to review the dispersion measures for the application of nanomaterials.

Catalytic filter is capable of performing shallow bed dust filtration plus a catalytic reaction, promoted by a catalyst deposited in its inner structure. Such a feature may allow potential cost and space reduction in several environmental applications. Dust filtration and halogenated volatile organic compound (1,2-dichlorobenzene) destruction were carried out in a lab-scale reactor. $WO_3-V_2O_5/TiO_2$ supplied by MaGreen, which showed high catalytic acitivity at low temperature, was used as a catalyst. P-84 that can be operated under $250^{\circ}C$ was used as a felt. The catalytic activity and filtration efficiency of catalytic filters were investigated under the operating conditions, including temperature, face velocity, and dust concentration. The catalytic activity of catalytic filter increased with increasing temperature and the amount of catalyst loaded. The test results showed that the filtration efficiency was primarily affected by the face velocity. Pressure drop variations as a function of time were investigated for a variety of conditions. In case of virgin filter, a dramatic decrease in the pulse interval and a slightly increase in the base line pressure drop were observed. A relatively slow pressure drop build-up was recorded for the catalytic filter due to smooth and slippery surface characteristics of nanofiber. The catalytic filter indicated that high filtration efficiency over 99.98% and high catalytic activity over 90% at 1 m/min and $210^{\circ}C$.
