DCCA로 1-도데카놀을 이용한 수식 졸-겔법에 의한 $TiO_2-SiO_2$계분체를 합성하였으며, 이들 합성분체에 대한 characterization과 광활성촉매에 대해 검토하였다. $500^{\circ}C$까지의 감량변화는 TiO2단독분체가 33.0wt%, $TiO_2/SiO_2$의 몰비가 75/25, 50/50 및 25/75인 분체는 각각 67.0wt%, 70.0wt% 및 73.0wt%, 그리고 $SiO_2$단독분체는 42.5wt%이였다. 이들 탈리는 거의 대부분이 유기물질이였다. 합성직후의 분체는 $TiO_2$단독분체를 제외하고는 무정형화합물이였고, 아나타아제의 루틸로의 상전이는 $SiO_2$에 의해 억제되었다. 합성직후의 분체는 입자의 형태가 관찰되지 않았으나, $600^{\circ}C$, 1시간 가열에 의한 $TiO_2$단독분체, $TiO_2/SiO_2$의 몰비가 75/25 및 50/50인 분체는 모두 서브미크론의 입자를 보였으며, 몰비가 25/75의 분체 및 $SiO_2$단독분체는 여전히 벌크상태였다. 비표면적 역시 $SiO_2$의 증가와 함께 증가하였으며, 세공크기 역시 $SiO_2$성분에 의존하였다. 그리고 이들 가열물의 광촉매활성은, $TiO_2/SiO_2$의 몰비가 75/25인 분체의 경우, 수소발생량으로 $0.240{\mu}mol/h.g-cat.$을 나타내었으며, $TiO_2$단독분체의 그것보다는 약 2.6배, 표준광촉매물질인 P-25(Degussa P-25)보다는 약 2.0배 가량 큰 값을 나타냈다.

Photo catalytic characteristics of nano-sized TiO$_2$ powder with rutile phase produced using homogeneous precipitation process at low temperatures (HPPLT) were compared with those of commercial P-25 powder by Degussa Co. The TiO$_2$ powder by HPPLT showed very higher photoactivity in the removal rate, showing lower pH values in the solution, than the P-25 powder when eliminating metal ions such as Pb and Cu from aqueous metal-EDTA solutions. This can be inferred the more rapid photo-oxidation or -reduction of metal ions from the aqueous solution, together with relatively higher efficiencies in the use of electron-hole pair formed on the surface of TiO$_2$ particle, under UV light irradiation. Also, in the view of the TiO$_2$ particle morphology, compared to the well-dispersed spherical P-25 particle, the agglomerated TiO$_2$ particle by HPPL T consists of acicular typed primary particle with the thickness ranged of 3∼7 nm, which would be more effective to the photocatalytic reactions without electron-hole recombination on the surface of the TiO$_2$ particle under the UV light irradiation. It is, therefore, thought that the higher photo activity of the rutile TiO$_2$ powder by HPPLT in the aqueous solutions resulted from having its higher specific surface area as well as acicular shape primary particle with very thin thickness.

광산에서 순도 높은 금은을 추출하기 위해 청화법을 이용해 왔다. 이러한 광산 활동에서 많은 양의 시안이 사용되어 왔으며 이에 따라 고농도의 시안을 함유한 광산폐수가 발생되어 광산 주변 지역의 수계를 오염시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 시안함유 광산폐수 및 침출수로부터 시안을 제거하기 위하여 $TiO_2$ 광촉매와 UV-LED 광원을 이용한 광산화 공정에 대하여 연구하였다. 기존 광산화 공정에서는 주로 UV 램프가 광원으로 많이 사용되었지만 여러 가지 단점으로 인하여 본 연구에서는 그 대체 광원으로 UV-LED의 적용 가능성을 평가하였다. 세 종류의 $TiO_2$의 광산화 효율을 평가한 결과, 아나타제와 루틸이 혼합된 Degussa P25가 광산화 효율이 가장 좋은 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 형태와 파장이 다른 네 종류의 UV-LED를 비교 평가한 결과, 365 nm 램프형 > 365 nm 캔형 > 280 nm 캔형 > 420 nm 램프형 순으로 제거효율이 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 UV-LED는 기존의 UV 램프의 단점을 극복할 수 있는 대체광원으로서 광산화 공정에 적용 가능하다는 것을 입증하였으며, 시안의 광산화 효율은 $TiO_2$ 광촉매의 종류에도 영향을 받는다는 것을 확인하였다.

Application of a new photocatalyst has been attempted to improve the efficiency and rates of photocatalytic degradation of azo dyes by using a model dye such as Methyl Orange. As a new photocatalyst, $TiO_2$ encapsulated EFAL-removed zeolite Y ($TiO_2$ /EFAL-removed zeolite Y) has been synthesized by ion-exchange in the mixture of EFAL-removed zeolite Y with 0.05 M aqueous [$(NH_4)_2 TiO(C_2O_4)_2.H_2O$] [$TiO(C_2O_4)_2.H_2O$]. This new photocatalyst has been characterized by measuring XRD, IR and reflectance absorption spectra as well as ICP analysis, and it was found that the framework structure of $TiO_2$ /EFAL-removed zeolite Y is not changed by removing the extra-framework aluminum (EFAL) from the normal zeolite Y and the $TiO_2$ inside the photocatalyst exists in the form of $(TiO^{2+})_n$ nanoclusters. Based on the ICP analysis, the Si/Al ratio of the $TiO_2$ /EFAL-removed zeolite Y and the weight of $TiO_2$ were determined to be 23 and 0.061g in 1.0g photocatalyst, respectively. It was also found that adsorption of the azo dye in the $TiO_2$ /EFAL-removed zeolite is very effective (about 80 % of the substrate used). This efficient adsorption contributes to the synergistic photocatalytic activities of the $TiO_2$ /EFAL-removed zeolite by minimizing the required flux diffusion of the substrate. Thus, the photocatalytic reduction of methyl orange (MO) was found to be 8 times more effective in the presence of $TiO_2$ /EFAL-removed zeolite Y than in the presence of $TiO_2$ /normal zeolite Y. Furthermore, the photocatalytic reduction of MO by using 1.0 g of the $TiO_2$ /EFAL-removed zeolite Y containing 0.061g of $TiO_2$ is much faster than that carried out by using 1.0 g of Degussa P-25.

We report three-dimensional polycrystalline anatase TiO2 structures (3D a-TiO2) for environmental and bio-medical applications. The 3D a-TiO2 was synthesized without thermal treatment by the growth of rod-like polycrystals on Degussa P25 (P25) via low temperature (< $85^{\circ}C$) modified alkali hydrothermal processing. X-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopic results showed that the rod-like polycrystals of 3D a-TiO2 possessed the highly anatase nanostructures. The photocatalytic activity of 3D a-TiO2 was found to be 2.2 times higher than that of P25. The recyclability of the 3D a-TiO2 was found to be high: the decolorization rate was 94.8% of the initial value after fifteen cycles. In addition, 3D a-TiO2 exhibited excellent antibacterial activities for the sterilization of gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) and gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Even at the 10th recycled use, more than 98.4% of E. coli and S. aureus can be killed. These results indicated that 3D a-TiO2 might have utility in several promising applications such as photocatalytic water/air purification and bactericidal agents.

In this study, the effects of crystalinity, composition and particle size of $TiO_2$ catalysts on the degradations of humic acid in aqueous solution was assessed using the commercially avaliable $TiO_2$ particles. Photocatalytic oxidations of humic acid (HA, Aldrich Co.) solution were carried out in case of adding different types of $TiO_2$ catalysts and their decomposition efficiencies were analyzed with respect to pH, DOC and UV absorbances values for the HA solutions and compared one another. The experimental results showed that $TiO_2$ particles(Degussa P-25) mixed with anataze and rutile gave the highest degradation efficiencies, respectively and much lower degradation efficiency in $TiO_2$ paticles of rutile only type. In comparing among ST series of anataze types, it was observed that the degradation efficiencies generally were increased with increasing $TiO_2$ contents and surface area of the particles. Higher degradation efficiency of HA was also found in zeolite type(D-TZ) of $TiO_2$ paticles compared with hydroxyapatite type (D-TH) of $TiO_2$ particles.

The Photocatalytic decolorization and degradation of commercial dyes were studied using a batch reactor. Degussa P25 titanium dioxide and $H_2O_2$ were used as the photocatalyst and proved to be effective for dyes degradation when they were irradiated with UV light. The light source was a 20W low pressure mercury lamp. Three different kinds of dyes, such as direct dye(congo red), acid dye (acid black) and disperse dye(disperse blue) were tested. Extending the UV only treatment up to 120min, direct dye was decolorized to 60% and degraded to 30% as COD. On the other side, acid and disperse dyes were eliminated less than 10% as color and COD. But, color and COD were eliminated about 90% for all of the three dyes by $UV/H_2O_2$ system. And then the most effective decolorization was done for direct dye with 96% removal efficiency by $UV/TiO_2$ system at 120min with 500mg/L of $TiO_2$.

Ther effect of UV on the mortality rate of toxic dinoflagellate Amphidinium Carterae causing a red tide in the coastal area of korea was investigated in the batch and continuous-scale reactor equipped with ultraviolet irradiation-apparatus. Degussa P(sub)25 titanium oxide, a photocatalyst proved to be effective of the mortality of Amphidinium Carterae supplied with photocatalyst and UV radiation were greater than 95% in 2 minutes of UV radiation and the rate were higher than that by UV-radiation without titanium dioxide in the batch and continuous-flow scale reactor, The mortality time of Amphidinium Carterae increased with the cell density under UV-illumination in the batch scale reactor. The mortality rate in the density of $5.0$\times$10^4$ cell/mL at the same experimental condition was more than 90% in 4 minutes in the continuous flow scale reactor. The percentage of 99.9$\pm$0.1% of Amphidinium Carterae in the density of $0.5$\times$10^4$ cells/mL was died in 20 minutes when the phytoplankton was illuminated with UV-radiation without photocatalyst.

The effects of initial concentration of dissolved oxygen content, Cu(II) and EDTA in an aqueous Cu(II)-EDTA solution on $TiO_2$ photo-oxidation of EDTA were investigated using $TiO_2$ (Degussa P-25) and UV irradiation at $20{\circ}C$. In the presence of dissolved oxygen and/or Cu(II) the photo-oxidation rates of EDTA were enhanced. The rates linearly increased in the range of initial Cu(II) concentration below 1.79 mM, while abode this concentration those were kept constant. The trend or the EDTA photo-oxidation rates appeared to be akin to the Langmuir-Hinshelwood equation farm and the k values calculated were 0.05 mM/min for the free-EDTA system, and 0.17 mM/min far the Cu(II)-EDTA system. These meant the aqueous EDTA decomposition was enhanced due to weakening of the intra-molecular bond strength of EDTA by complexation with Cu(II) added. It was concluded the decomposition of aqueous EDTA by $TiO_2$ photo-oxidation was maximum in the presence of dissolved oxygen supplied by air purging and of Cu(II) with its concentration for 1:1 Cu(II)-EDTA complexation ratio.

투습방수필름으로 많이 사용되고 있는 폴리우레탄(PU)에 광촉매 기능성을 가지고 있는 나노-$TiO_2$(Degussa P25)를 1~10wt% 복합시킨 후, 은(Ag)이온 수용액에서 자외선 조사에 의한 광증착시키는 과정을 거쳐 은이 도핑된 PU/$TiO_2$/Ag 하이브리드 멤브레인 필름을 제조하였다. (주)비에스지에서 제공받은 PU/DMF/MEK 용액에 $TiO_2$를 초음파로 균일하게 분산배합한 후, 필름캐스팅하여 만든 필름을 AgNO3 수용액에 침지시키고 254nm의 자외선을 30~120초 동안 조사하는 광증착법으로 은을 환원시켜 도핑시켰다. 은 도핑된 하이브리드 필름을 Shaking flask method에서 폐렴간균, 황색포도상구균에 대한 항균성을 측정하고, Clear zone method에서 대장균에 대한 항균성을 측정한 결과, $TiO_2$ 함량이 3wt% 이상이고 UV조사시간이 60초 이상인 경우 99.9% 이상의 항균성을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다.
