In this study, the $TiO_2$ nano spheres were synthesized by Sol-gel method to give an excellent UV-blocking effect and increase waste adsorption. The pH value was adjusted to obtain a superb UV-blocking effect and adsorption capacity due to the high surface area which is the characteristics of porosity. Base treated $TiO_2$ showed outstanding characteristics. The adsorption of gycerine onto the $TiO_2$ sample using TGA resulted in a high surface area of 1.16 mg/mg. This also showed a high reflectance in the UV-A region. In order to find the optimum dispersion, inorganic powder particles were maintained their sizes as 180 nm for about 6 months. The size of particles were measured using ester oil and silicon oil. Overall, the results reveal that $TiO_2$ has an excellent capability sunscreen in the UV-A region and skin waste adsorption.

Uv/ZnO를 이용한 타르색소의 광촉매 분해에 대한 실험적 검토로부터 전 실험범위에서 tartrazine의 분해효과가 brilliant blue FCF보다 높았고. 두 색소 모두 ZnO의 투입량이 증가할수록 분해도가 증가하였으며, $KBrO_3$보다 (${(NH_4)}_2S_2O_{8}$의 분해촉진 효과가 더 컸으나 pH의 영향은 그다지 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다.

Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) is one of most abundant microcystins, and is derived from blue-green algae bloom. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are effective process when high concentrations of MC-LR are released into a drinking water treatment system from surface water. In particular, UV-based AOPs such as UV, $UV/H_2O_2$, $UV/O_3$ and $UV/TiO_2$ have been studied for the removal of MC-LR. In this study, UV-LED was applied for the degradation of MC-LR because UV lamps have demonstrated some weaknesses, such as frequent replacements; that generate mercury waste and high heat loss. Degradation efficiencies of the MC-LR (initial conc. = $100{\mu}g/L$) were 30% and 95.9% using LED-L (280 nm, $0.024mW/cm^2$) and LED-H (280 nm, $2.18mW/cm^2$), respectively. Aromatic compounds of natural organic matter changed to aliphatic compounds under the LED-H irradiation by LC-OCD analysis. For application to raw water, the Nak-dong River was sampled during summer when blue-green algae were heavy bloom in 2016. The concentration of extracellular and total MC-LR, geosmin and 2-MIB slightly decreased by increasing the LED-L irradiation; however, the removal of MC-LR by UV-LED (${\lambda}=280nm$) was insufficient. Thus, advanced UV-LED technology or the addition of oxidants with UV-LED is required to obtain better degradation efficiency of MC-LR.

Laboratory experiments were performed to investigate oxidation system using ozone and hydrogen peroxide for treating water contaminated with phenol. We were able to greatly improve the oxidation efficiency of the aqueous phenol using hydrogen peroxide and ozone. Two methods were compared and analyzed in this study. In the consequence through the methods, we concluded that the $O_3/UV$ is superior to the hydrogen the results. The decomposition efficiency of aqueous phenol by $H_2O_2$. was exceeded at 83.3% in the concentration of phenol, 5, 15, 25 ppm, respectively. The rate of decomposition reaction by $H_2O_2$. was very slow. In the occasion of the fractional life, it was determined the value that $1.61{\times}10^{-5}(l/mol)^{1.172}sec^{-1}$, $3.75{\times}10^{-5}(l/mol)^{0.792}sec^{-1}$, $4.11{\times}10^{-5}(l/mol)^{1.782}sec^{-1}$. The rate of decomposition reaction of aqueous phenol by $O_3$ was fast compared to the $H_2O_2$. We concluded that the $O_3$ method is useful with the consideration of the reaction time 30 minutes. In the occasion of the fractional life, it was determined the value that $1.094{\times}10^{-4}(l/mol)^{0.933}sec^{-1}$, $2.1{\times}10^{-4}(l/mol)^{0.842}sec^{-1}$, $7.22{\times}10^{-4}(l/mol)^{1.332}sec^{-1}$.

This study explored for treatment processes by investigating the treatment efficiency and reaction mechanism through oxidation reaction using UV and $O_3$ as oxidant in compensate the wastewater containing nitrobenzene that is non biodegradable organic. Also by modeling these reactions, we try to step explanation of optimum reaction rate and reaction mechanism as the development of the computer program predictable the reaction rate by modeling the reaction. By using this model, after kinetic constant for each reaction from an experimental data is made an optimization and for hardly contribute to reaction rate in reaction kinetic equation is made an ignorance and suppose the simplified reaction mechanism, examined the propriety of computer simulation model and simplified reaction mechanism by comparing and inspecting the reaction kinetic constant and masstransfer coefficient. An investigation results for destructional treatment of nitrobenzene in the wastewater as non-biddegradable organic using UV, $O_3{\;}O_2{\;}H_2O_2-UV$ as oxidant.

We have investigated the photocatalytic activity for the decomposition of methyl orange on the pure $LaCoO_3$ and metal ion doped $LaCoO_3$ perovskite-typeoxides prepared using microwave process. In the case of pure $LaCoO_3$ and cesium ion doped $LaCoO_3$ catalysts, the formation of the perovskite crystalline phase was confirmed regardless of the preparation method. From the results of UV-Vis DRS, the pure $LaCoO_3$ and cesium ion doped $LaCoO_3$ catalysts have the similar absorption spectrum up to visible region. The chemisorbed oxygen plays an important role on the photocatalytic decomposition of methyl orange and the higher the contents of chemisorbed oxygen, the better performance of photocatalyst.

Er-doped ZnO(ZnO:Er) films were deposited onto MgO wafers by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis at 550 $^{\circ}C$ varying the concentration of Er in the deposition source from 0.5 wt% to 3.0 wt%. Annealing of the films in a vacuum was carried out to increase the intensity of ultraviolet(UV) emission from the films. The annealing temperature was between 600$^{\circ}C$ and 800$^{\circ}C$. The crystallographic properties and surface morphology of the films were investigated by X-ray diffraction(XRD)and scanning electron microscope(SEM), respectively. The properties of photoluminescence(PL) for the films were investigated by the dependence of PL spectra on the annealing temperature. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) was conducted to find the composition change in the films by the annealing.

ZnO particles with a size range of 50-150 nm were coated with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with a thin film thickness of 3-4 nm using a simple ambient-pressure chemical vapor deposition methods. Surfaces consisting of the PDMS-coated ZnO nanoparticles were found to be superhydrophobic with a water contact angle higher than $160^{\circ}$. The superhydrophobicity was sustained in the presence of UV light. Photocatalytic activity and photocorrosion of ZnO were nearly completely quenched in the presence of PDMS coating. It is suggested that our PDMS-coating can be of potential interest for the application of ZnO in UV protection agents and energy and electronic devices.

The electron concentration of ZnO thin film fabricated by pulsed laser deposition was controlled by varying oxygen gas pressure. The electron concentration of ZnO was increased from $10^{17}\;to\;10^{19}/cm^3$ as oxygen gas pressure increased from 20 mTorr to 350 mTorr. Ultraviolet(UV) intensity of photoluminescence of ZnO was controlled, too. UV intensity of ZnO was increased as oxygen gas pressure increased from 20 mTorr to 350 mTorr. The relation between electron concentration and UV intensity was investigated.
