  • Photochemical degradation of dimethyl phthalate (DMP) in Fe(III)/tartrate/$H_2O_2$ system was investigated utilizing fluorescent lamps as the primary light source. Effects of initial pH, light source, and initial concentration of each reactant on DMP photodegradation was examined. The results show that the system was able to effectively photodegrade DMP utilizing visible light. Fluorescent lamp, halide lamp, UV lamp and sunlight could all be used as the light sources. The optimal pH ranged among 3.0-4.0 for the system. Increases of the initial concentrations of Fe(III) and $H_2O_2$ accelerated the photodegradation of DMP, whereas excessively high initial tartrate concentration resulted in the decrease of photodegradation efficiency and rate of DMP.

  • The aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of combination of disinfection process (electrolysis, UV process) on Escherichia coli (E. coli) disinfection and oxidants (OH radical, $ClO_2$, HOCl, $H_2O_2$ and $O_3$) generation. The effect of electrolyte type (NaCl, KCl and $Na_2SO_4$) on the E. coli disinfection and oxidants generation were evaluated. The experimental results showed that performance of E. coli disinfection of electrolysis and UV single process was similar. Combination of electrolysis and UV process enhanced the E. coli disinfection and 4-carboxybenzaldehyde (4-CBA, indicator of the generation of OH radical) degradation. It is clearly showed synergy effect on disinfection and OH radical formation. However chlorine ($ClO_2$, HOCl) and oxygen type ($H_2O_2$, $O_3$) oxidants were decreased with the combination of two process. In electrolysis + UV complex process, electro-generated $H_2O_2$ and $O_3$ were reacted with UV light of UV-C lamp and increased 4-CBA degradation(increase OH radical). Disinfection of electrolyte of chlorine type was higher than that of the sulfate type electrolyte due to the higher generation of OH radical and oxidants.

  • Decomposition of ozone at room temperature was investigated comparatively with commercial monolithic ozone decomposition catalyst (ODC, $MnO_2$) and monolithic photo catalyst ($TiO_2$). The effects of residence time, UV (ultraviolet) light dependence and ozone concentration on the conversion was presented. UV ray was irradiated using BLB (black light blue) lamp ($315{\sim}400$ nm), supplied with a constant intensity in the reactor. The concentration of ozone in the square-shape reactor can be controlled by combining the DBD (dielectric barrier discharge) reactor with an AC high voltage supply system. The catalytic performance, in presence of UV irradiation did not show significant changes for $MnO_2$ catalyst. $TiO_2$ catalyst was the different case, which showed higher decomposition activity in presence of UV irradiation. Deactivation of catalyst detected by real-time ozone monitor for 120 hours with a constant inlet ozone concentration.

  • The purpose of this study was to develop functional and environment-friendly polyester fabric by irradiating Ultra-Violet, which was produced by the low-pressure mercury lamp. UV irradiation was conducted with various treatment times and distances. Also, pretreatments of solvents and photoinitiator were used to improve the surface modification effects. The effects of UV irradiation on the moisture regain were found to increase gradually with increase of UV treatment time and decrease of treatment distance. Compared the effects of UVC and UVA, UVC was more effective than UVA. Moisture regain and wicking of PET was increased after UV treatment in our experimental condition. And owing to increasing of moisture regain, static charge was decreased. Pretreatment of solvents such as methanol, ethyl ether and addition of photoinitiator such as Benzophenone accelerated surface modification. The moisture regain was increased but wicking was decreased with pretreatment and addition of photoinitiatior. Therefore it is considered as inappropriate f3r clothing because of wicking effects. Yellowness, tensile strength and elasticity slightly decreased after UV irradiation.

  • The addition of montmorillonite (MMT) in the UV curable polyurethane diacrylate based resins was investigated to fabricate nanocomposites with improved mechanical properties and water sorption behavior using different photoinitiator systems. As a result, it was observed that 1 wt% of clay loading fairly improved tensile resistance and water uptake behavior. It can be also confirmed that dual photoinitiator system consisted of benzyldimethyl ketal and bisacyl phosphine oxide exhibited enhanced energy absorption band 340~450 nm even with 3 wt% of MMT concentration, which may affect the curing behavior of nanocomposite especially in our UV lamp system.

  • Etiolation of plant leaves evoke to be photosynthetically inactive because plant leaves are unable to convert photochlorophyllide to chlorophyllide in the absence of light. In addition, UV-B radiation plays an important role in photomorphogenesis and excessive UV-B radiation decreases photosynthesis and causes to damage to cellular DNA. In the present study, two electrical lights obtained with the ultraviolet lamp and moderate lamp were employed to young plants soybean (Glycine max Merr. var Seoritae). After treatment of different lights, young plants were harvested for the determination of pigment contents and chlorophyll fluorescence. The contents of carotenoids and anthocyanins were significantly enhanced with the excessive UV-B radiation. Excessive UV-B light reduced dramatically photosynthetic efficiency causing an irreversible damage on PSII in comparison to the controls treated under normal illumination. As the treatment of normal illumination after dark treatment, the contents of carotenoids and anthocyanains were not changed in the leaves and photosynthetic ability were retained. Therefore, Seoritae soybean leaves might protect themselves from excessive UV-B radiation with up-regulation of antioxidants.
