여러 환경정화 방법들 중 광촉매를 이용한 처리기술들이 관심을 모으고 있다. 광에 의해 활성을 갖는 여러 촉매들 가운데 이산화티타늄($TiO_2$)을 중심으로 한 연구가 가장 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구는 TiO2를 개질화하여 광활성이 우수한 광촉매를 개발하고 이를 이용한 VOC 처리를 목적으로 하고 있다. VOC 중 할로겐화(halogenated)된 것들의 처리는 매우 어려우며 현재의 소각방식으로는 효과적으로 처리되고 있지 않다.

OH radical generation is one of the common method to evaluate photocatalytic activity. In many of previous studies, only the UV(Ultraviolet) light was applied to test photocatalytic ability of $TiO_2$ nanotubes by studying probe compound(4-Chlorobenzoic acid) concentration change in solution. Also, $TiO_2$ nanotubes were found to show some electrochemical characteristics when the flow of electric current was applied. In this study, the flow of electric current and UV light were applied at the same time to determine whether electrochemical characteristics of $TiO_2$ nanotube plate can give synergetic effect on the photocatalytic activity. $TiO_2$ nanotube was grown on Ti by anodic oxidation to create $TiO_2$ nanotube plate which can be used as a photocatalyst and a electrode that can undergo AOP(Advanced Oxidation Process) for water treatment. Probe compound solution was prepared using 4-chlorobenzoic acid and $H_2O$ as a solvent. NaCl was added to give conductivity to work as electrolyte. As a result, enough level of electric current flow was found to give synergetic photocatalytic effect which can be used for efficient AOP water treatment method.

In this study, titanium dioxide photocatalyst was applied to the ventilation system to reduce particulate matter and nitrogen oxides (NOx), which are representative indoor harmful substances. A reaction device capable of installing an ultraviolet lamp was designed and manufactured so that the pollutant decomposition effect of the titanium dioxide photocatalyst identified through previous studies could be applied indoors. The reaction device was used on the indoor ventilation system and applied to the Mock-Up test. As a result of the Mock-up test, the NOx reduction performance according to the change in air volume once per hour and five times per hour was confirmed. As a result, it was confirmed that as the number of ventilation increases, the NOx reduction time decreases proportionally, and the reduction performance increases.

The nitrogen oxidized substance(NOx) from cars in city is one of serious air-polution problems. In advanced country, the powder or the liquid photocatalystic for asphalt pavement and noise barrier have been used to reduce the air-polution. In this paper, the effect of photocatalystic on asphalt pavement has been evaluated, especially for UV optical science reactions analyzed NOx purification efficiencies of the automobile waste gas. Judging from the limited lab-scale test, the use of the powder or the liquid photocatalystic is one of alternatives to reduce the NOx from automobile.

In this study, characteristics of visible-light responsive photocatalyst Weltouch, especially VOCs reduction of visible-light responsive photocatalyst coated nylon/polyester composite fiber for vehicle interior parts and materials were evaluated. Visible-light responsive photocatalyst Weltouch was observed for both anatase phase and rutile phase. It is activated by light longer than 420nm. VOCs and formaldehyde generated from visible-light responsive photocatalyst treated nylon/polyester composite fiber were reduced confirmly. Visible-light responsive photocatalyst was firmly attached to the surface of nylon/polyester composite fiber without elimination even after 25 times repeated washing. And washing durability of nylon/polyester composite fiber confirmed the excellence that reduction effects of VOCs after repeated washing has appeared as much as before washing.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the structure of general filter using ultrafine filter (Profilter), dust collector filter, HEPA (HAPA-High Efficiency Particulate Air) filter, deodorized filters, etc. of air purifiers and to study new types of purified filters that can improve ultrafine dust, harmful gases, and sterilization cleanup performance. The study was also conducted by adding photocatalyst filters to the existing step-by-step filtration filter types, which were proposed in the design three coupling structure filters of the left and right UV-LED installation frames and the photocatalyst coating honeycomb frame. Future research is needed on the effect of photocatalyst filters. This study was to investigate the application and structure of photocatalyst filters to air purifiers.

In this study, VOC analysis method of vehicle interior materials and parts treated to visible-light responsive photocatalyst was tested by sample bag filled with air instead of nitrogen. As a result, when analyzed VOC of vehicle interior materials and parts, sample bag filled with the nitrogen was not confirmed of effect reducing VOCs and formaldehyde. However, VOCs and formaldehyde of sample bag that was filled with air instead of nitrogen, decreased significantly. Reaction effect for visible light-responsive photocatalyst was confirmed that sample bag of vehicle interior materials and parts should be filled with air instead of nitrogen.

광촉매의 성능을 평가하기 위해 3종류의 광촉매를 형광등 터널등기구, 고압나트륨 터널등기구, 고압나트륨 가로등기구에 코팅하고 이들 조명기구의 신설 시와 설치 1.5개월 후의 투과율을 측정하여 그 성능을 평가하였다. 그 결과 고압나트륨 터널등기구에는 광촉매 반응이 거의 일어나지 않았고, 형광등 터널등기구에서만 그 효과가 나타났다. 이것은 고압나트륨등이 자외선 영역에서 빛을 거의 방출하지 않았기 때문이다.

가시광에서 활성을 보이는 $TiO_2$광촉매를 이용하여 대표적인 방향족 VOCs인 BTEX의 분해효과에 대한 실험을 실시하였다. 실험 결과 Xylene은 높은 전환율을 나타낸 반면, Benzene은 가장 낮은 전환율을 나타냈다. 이는 Benzene이 다른 물질에 비해 상대적으로 안정적인 분자 구조에 의해서 반응성이 매우 약하기 때문인 것으로 사료된다. 본 실험은 여러 가지 조건들 중에 농도와 유량만 변화 시킨 가운데 얻어진 결과이기 때문에 향후 연구에서 습도, 농도, 유량 및 빛의 강도 등 다양한 조건의 변화에 따라 최적의 조건을 찾아낼 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. S 가 도핑된 $TiO_2$ 광촉매는 가시광 하에서 방향족 VOCs를 제어하는 광촉매 기술 중에 비교적 최신의 기술이며, 향후의 연구 개발이 더욱 필요하다.
