In this paper, $TiO_2$ nanotube is prepared and the preparation is influenced by electrochemical etching rate and chemical dissolution rate. Especially, the chemical dissolution rate is lowered as the length $TiO_2$ nanotube increases. Titanium foil were anodized at various bias or current such as 20V, 55V and 0.1A (bath temperature $25^{\circ}C$) in organic electrolytes (ethylene glycol, glycerol) and then annealed at $450^{\circ}C$ and $650^{\circ}C$ to obtain the crystallized tubular $TiO_2$ on the Ti foil. Higher efficiency (89.1%) for the Cr(VI) reduction was obtained with the prepared sample compared to that (20.9%) with the sample in 0.5% HF electrolyte earlier studied.
