자외선 조사하에서 $TiO_2$를 촉매로 하여 trichloroethylene의 광분해반응을 행하였다. 여러 가지 $TiO_2$ 촉매의 활성을 비교하였고, 반응조건에 따른 광분해 활성을 조사하였다. 또한 빛의 세기에 따른 분해활성과 반응물에 첨가된 물의 영향을 조사하였다. 여러 가지 $TiO_2$ 촉매에서 P-25가 가장 높은 활성을 보였고, anatase형이 rutile형보다 높은 활성을 보였다. 또한 반응물의 유속이 느릴수록 또한 초기농도가 낮을수록 trichloroethylene의 분해 반응 활성은 증가하였고, 산화제로서 공기를 사용하는 것이 효과적이었다. 한편 반응물에 첨가된 물은 촉매의 활성을 감소시켰고, 빛의 세기가 증가할수록 분해 반응속도가 증가하였으나 태양광에 의해서는 분해율이 매우 낮았다. trichloroethylene의 농도가 낮을 경우에는 촉매의 활성저하가 거의 일어나지 않았다.

Trichloroethvlene(TCE)의 수용액 내에서 광분해 반응을 연구하였다. 광촉매 TiO₂의 표면특성은 XRD, SEM 및 BET를 사용하여 선행연구[23]에서 고찰하였으며 Aldrich TiO₂는 100% anatase, Degussa 에서 제조한 P25-TiO₂는 75% anatase와 25% rutile의 혼합구조(structure)를 가짐을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 TCE 분해반응의 최적조건을 선정하기 위하여 광촉매의 사용량, 분해반응시 혼합용액의 순환유속, TCE의 초기농도 및 광촉매 TiO₂의 구조가 광분해 반응에 미치는 영향을 자세히 고찰하였다. 실험결과 증류수 1 L를 기준으로 무게비 0.1 wt%의 광촉매를 사용하여 증류수와 TCE의 혼합용액을 200 cc/min로 순환시켰을 때 분해활성이 가장 좋음을 알 수 있었으며 일반적으로 anatase 구조가 rutile구조를 가진 광촉매 보다 높은 활성을 보였다. 특히 anatase와 rutile의 혼합구조를 가진 Degussa P25-TiO₂가 가장 좋은 활성을 보였으며 이는 작은 입자크기와 큰 비표면적에 기인한 결과로 보인다.

The photocatalytic degradation of trichloroethylene (TCE) in $TiO_2$ aqueous suspension has been studied. $TiO_2$ photocatalysts are prepared by a sol-gel method. The dominant anatase-structure on $TiO_2$ particles is observed after calcining the $TiO_2$ get at $500^{\circ}C$ for 1hr. The Langmuir-Hinshelwood model is applicable to describe the photodegradation, which indicates that adsorptionof the solute on the surface of $TiO_2$ particles plays an important role in photodegradation. Photocatalysts with various transition metals (Nd, Pd and Pt) loading are tested to evaluate the effect of transition metal impurities on photodegradation. The photodegradation efficiencies with $TiO_2$ including Pt, Pd and Nd are lower than pure $TiO_2$ powder. The effect of pH is investigated and the maximum photodegradation efficiency is obtained at pH 7. In addition, the intermediates such as dichloromethane, chloroform, and trichloroethane are detected during the photodegradation of TCE.

Cobalt titanates($CoTiO_x$), such as $CoTiO_3$ and $Co_2TiO_4$, have been synthesized via a solid-state reaction and characterized using X-ray diffraction(XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic(XPS) measurement techniques, prior to being used for continuous wet trichloroethylene(TCE) oxidation at $36^{\circ}C$, to support our earlier chemical structure model for Co species in 5 wt% $CoO_x/TiO_2$(fresh) and(spent) catalysts. Each XRD pattern for the synthesized $CoTiO_3$ and $Co_2TiO_4$ was very close to those obtained from the respective standard XRD data files. The two $CoTiO_x$ samples gave Co 2p XPS spectra consisting of very strong main peaks for Co $2p_{3/2}$ and $2p_{1/2}$ with corresponding satellite structures at higher binding energies. The Co $2p_{3/2}$ main structure appeared at 781.3 eV for the $CoTiO_3$, and it was indicated at 781.1 eV with the $Co_2TiO_4$. Not only could these binding energy values be very similar to that exhibited for the 5 wt% $CoO_x/TiO_2$(fresh), but the spin-orbit splitting(${\Delta}E$) had also no noticeable difference between the cobalt titanates and a sample of the fresh catalyst. Neither of all the $CoTiO_x$ samples were active for the wet TCE oxidation, as expected, but a sample of pure $Co_3O_4$ had a good activity for this reaction. The earlier proposed model for the surface $CoO_x$ species existing with the fresh and spent catalysts is very consistent with the XPS characterization and activity measurements for the cobalt titanates.

In this study, the applicability of visible light-emitting-diodes (LEDs) to the photocatalytic degradation of indoor-level trichloroethylene (TCE) and perchloroethylene (PCE) over N-doped $TiO_2$ (N-$TiO_2$) was examined under a range of operational conditions. The N-$TiO_2$ photocatalyst was calcined at $650^{\circ}C$ (labeled N-650) showed the lowest degradation efficiencies for TCE and PCE, while the N-$TiO_2$ photocatalysts calcined at $350^{\circ}C$, $450^{\circ}C$, and $550^{\circ}C$ (labeled as N-350, N-450, and N-550, respectively) exhibited similar or slightly different degradation efficiencies to those of TCE and PCE. These results were supported by the X-ray diffraction patterns of N-350, N-450, N-550, and N-650. The respective average degradation efficiencies for TCE and PCE were 96% and 77% for the 8-W lamp/N-$TiO_2$ system, 32% and 20% for the violet LED/N-$TiO_2$ system, and ~0% and 4% for the blue LED/N-$TiO_2$ system. However, the normalized photocatalytic degradation efficiencies for TCE and PCE for the violet LED-irradiated N-$TiO_2$ system were higher than those from the 8-W fluorescent daylight lamp-irradiated N-$TiO_2$ system. Although the difference was not substantial, the degradation efficiencies exhibited a decreasing trend with increasing input concentrations. The degradation efficiencies for TCE and PCE decreased with increasing air flow rates. In general, the degradation efficiencies for both target compounds decreased as relative humidity increased. Consequently, it was indicated that violet LEDs can be utilized as energy-efficient light sources for the photocatalytic degradation of TCE and PCE, if operational conditions of N-$TiO_2$ photocatalytic system are optimized.

The photocatalytic degradation of TCE using solar energy in POFR was studied. The use of solar energy was investigated in plastic optica fiber photocatalytic reactor (POFR). In POFR, the main parameters of photocatalytic degradation of TCE were lihgt intensity, thickness of $TiO_2$-coated film on plastic fiber core, the same of total $TiO_2$-coated surface area with changed length. We studied the apparent photonic efficiency and photocatalytic degradation rate of TCE in POFR. The apparent photonic efficiency of various light intensities was decreased by an incresed intensities. The photocatalytic activities of $TiO_2$-coated optical fiber reactor system depended on the coating thickness, and total clad-stripped surface area of POF. Photocatalytic degradation of trichloroethylene ($C_2HCl_3$, TCE) in the gas-phase was elucidated by using $TiO_2$-coated plastic optical fiber reactor. In TCE degradation, in-situ FTIR measurement resulted in mineralization into $CO_2$.

불균일 $CoO_x/TiO_2$ 촉매가 충진된 연속 흐름식 고정층 반응기 내에서 ppm 수준으로 수중에 존재하는 trichloroethylene (TCE) 제거반응을 수행하였으며, 가장 우수한 반응활성을 갖는 촉매의 결정구조와 표면화학적 특성을 분석함으로써 반응시간에 따라 분해활성이 전이영역을 보이는 원인을 규명하고자 하였다. $36^{\circ}C$의 반응온도에서 모델반응의 내부확산저항은 없었으며, $TiO_2$ 표면에 흡착에 의한 액상 TCE 제거정도는 무시할 수 있었다. 5% $CoO_x/TiO_2$ 촉매는 본 대상반응에 대하여 가장 우수한 활성을 갖는 것으로 나타났으며, 반응시간의 경과정도에 따라 TCE 분해효율이 점진적으로 증가하여 안정화되는 전이영역의 존재를 확인할 수 있었다. 반응 전 5% $CoO_x$ 촉매에 대한 XRD 패턴에서 담지체로 사용된 $TiO_2$에 의한 피크들 외에 새로운 피크가 관찰되었고, 5시간 이상 동안 반응한 후에 건조된 촉매의 경우에도 반응 전 촉매의 XRD 피크와 매우 유사하였다. $Co_3O_4$의 XRD 패턴들과 대조한 결과, 5% $CoO_x$ 촉매상에서 Co 화합물에 의해 야기되는 XRD 피크들은 $Co_3O_4$에 의한 것임을 알 수 있었다. 반응물에 노출되지 않은 5% $CoO_x/TiO_2$ 촉매에 대한 XPS 측정은 797.1 eV에서 Co $2p_{1/2}$에 대한 주피크와 함께 781.3 eV에서 Co $2p_{3/2}$에 대한 주피크가 관찰되어졌다. 반응 후 촉매의 경우에는 Co $2p_{3/2}$ 및 Co $2p_{1/2}$의 binding energy들은 각각 780.3과 795.8 eV에서 나타났다. 반응 전 후 촉매상에서 Co $2p_{3/2}$의 binding energy 차이는 1.0 eV이고, Co $2p_{1/2}$의 binding energy 차이는 1.3 eV이다. 표준 $Co_3O_4$에 대한 XPS 측정결과, 반응 후 촉매상에 존재하는 $CoO_x$는 $Co_3O_4$로 존재하고, 반응 전의 경우에는 이와는 다른 chemical state를 보여주었다. XRD 및 XPS 결과를 바탕으로, 촉매표면에 존재하는 $Co_3O_4$의 외부표면이 $Co_2TiO_4$와 $CoTiO_3$ 같은 $CoTiO_x$로 encapsulation되어 있는 모델구조를 제안할 수 있고, 이는 반응시간의 함수로 나타나는 촉매활성에 있어서 전이영역의 존재를 잘 설명할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, XRD와 XPS에서 얻어진 촉매의 물리화학적인 특성을 잘 반영할 수 있다.

Catalytic wet oxidation of trichloroethylene (TCE) in water has been conducted using $TiO_2-supported$ cobalt oxides at $36^{\circ}C$ with a weight hourly space velocity of $7,500\;h^{-1}.\;5\%\;CoO_x/TiO_2$, prepared by using an incipient wetness technique, might be the most promising catalyst for the wet oxidation although it exhibited a transient behavior in time on-stream activity. Not only could the bare support be inactive for the wet decomposition reaction, but no TCE removal also occurred by the process of adsorption on $TiO_2$ surface. The catalytic activity was independent of all particle sizes used, thereby representing no mass transfer limitation in intraparticle diffusion. XPS spectra of both fresh and used Co surfaces gave different surface spectral features for each $CoO_x,\;Co\;2P_{3/2}$ binding energy for Co species in the fresh catalyst appeared at 781.3 eV, which is very similar to the chemical states of $CoTiO_x$ such as $CO_2TiO_4\;and\;CoTiO_3$. The used catalyst exhibited a 780.3-eV main peak with a satellite structure at 795.8 eV. Based on XPS spectra of reference Co compound, the TCE-exposed Co surfaces could be assigned to be in the form of mainly $Co_3O_4$. XRD patterns for $5\%\;CoO_x/TiO_2$ catalyst indicated that the phase structure of Co species in the catalyst even before reaction is quite comparable to the diffraction lines of external $Co_3O_4$ standard. A model structure of $CoO_x$ present predominantly on titania surfaces would be $Co_3O_4$, encapsulated in thin-film $CoTiO_x$ species consisting of $Co_2TiO_4$ and $CoTiO_3$, which may be active for the decomposition of TCE in a flow of water.

Titania-supported chromium oxides with different loadings have been embarked in catalytic oxidation of trichloroethylene (TCE) to inquire association of the formation of crystalline $Cr_2O_3$ with catalytic performances. A better activity in the oxidative TCE decomposition at chosen temperatures was represented when chromium oxides ($CrO_x$) had been dispersed on pure anatase-type $TiO_2$ (DT51D) rather than on phase-mixed and sulfur-contained ones such as P25 and DT51. The extent of TCE oxidation at temperatures below $350^{\circ}C$ was a strong function of $CrO_x$ content in $CrO_x$/DT51D $TiO_2$, and a noticeable point was that the catalyst has two optimal $CrO_x$ loadings in which the lowest $T_{50}$ and $T_{90}$ values were measured for the TCE oxidation. This behavior in the activity with respect to $CrO_x$ amounts could be associated with the formation of crystalline $Cr_2O_3$ on the support surface, that is less active for the oxidation reaction, and an easier mobility of the surface oxygen existing in noncrystalline $CrO_x$ species with higher oxidation states, such as $Cr_2O_8$ and $CrO_3$.

Oxidative TCE decomposition over $TiO_2$-supported single and complex metal oxide catalysts has been conducted using a continuous flow type fixed-bed reactor system. Different types of commercial $TiO_2$ were used for obtaining the supported catalysts via an incipient wetness technique. Among a variety of titanias and metal oxides used, a DT51D $TiO_2\;and\;CrO_x$ would be the respective promising support and active ingredient for the oxidative TCE decomposition. The $TiO_2-based\;CrO_x$ catalyst gave a significant dependence of the catalytic activity in TCE oxidation reaction on the metal loadings. The use of high $CrO_x$ contents for preparing $CrO_x/TiO_2$ catalysts might produce $Cr_2O_3$ crystallites on the surface of $TiO_2$, thereby decreasing catalytic performance in the oxidative decomposition at low reaction temperatures. Supported $CrO_x$-based bimetallic oxide systems offered a very useful approach to lower the $CrO_x$ amounts without any loss in their catalytic activity for the catalytic TCE oxidation and to minimize the formation of Cl-containing organic products in the course of the catalytic reaction.
