Porous $Co(OH)_2$ nano-flake thin films were prepared by a potential-controlled electro-deposition technique at various deposition voltage (-0.75, -1.0, -1.2, and -1.4 V) on Ti-mesh substrates for supercapacitor application. The potential of electrode was controlled to regulate the film thickness and the amount of $Co(OH)_2$ nano-flake on the titanium substrate. The film thickness was shown to reach the maximum value of $34{\mu}m$ at -1.4 V of electrode potential, where 17.2 g of $Co(OH)_2$ was deposited on the substrate. The specific discharge capacitances were measured to be 226, 370, 720, and $1008mF\;cm^{-2}$ in the 1st cycle corresponding to the films which were formed at -0.75, -1.0, -1.2, and -1.4 V of electrode potentials, respectively. Then the discharge capacities were decreased to be 206, 349, 586 and $866mF/cm^{-2}$, where the persistency rates were 91, 94, 81, and 86%, respectively.

Sulphuric acid (H₂SO₄) leaching and hydrolysis were experimented for the recovery of titanum dioxide (TiO₂) from the water-leached residue followed by soda-roasting spent SCR catalysts. Sulphuric acid leaching of Ti was carried out with leachate concentration (4~8 M) and the others were fixed (temp.: 70 ℃, leaching time: 3 hrs, slurry density: 100 g/L, stirring speed: 500 rpm). For recovering of Ti from the leaching solution, hydrolysis precipitation was conducted at 100 ℃ for 2 hours in various mixing ratio (leached solution:distilled water) of 1:9 to 5:5. The maximum leachability was reached to 95.2 % in 6 M H₂SO₄ leachate. on the other hand, the leachability of Si decreased dramatically 91.7 to 3.0 % with an increase of H₂SO₄ concentration. Hydrolysis precipitation of Ti was proceeded with leaching solution of 8 M H₂SO₄ with the lowest content of Si. The yield of precipitation increased proportionally with a dilution ratio of leaching solution. Moreover, it increased generally by adding 0.2 g TiO₂ as a precipitation seed to the diluted leaching solution. Ultimately, 99.8 % of TiO₂ can be recovered with the purity of 99.46 % from the 1:9 diluted solution.
