본 연구에서는 광촉매의 광자효율을 증가시키고, 물성을 변화시켜 광촉매 성능을 향상시키기 위하여, 자동차 폐 촉매에서 추출된 귀금속 용액 또는 $H_2PtCl_6$ 용액을 수열합성법에 의해 제조된 $TiO_2$와 상업용 $TiO_2$인 P-25(Degussa Co.)를 함침시켜 변조된 광촉매를 제조하였다. 그리고 변조된 광촉매는 ICP-AES, EDS, UV-DRS, XRD, XANES, SEM에 이용하여 물성분석 하였다. 그리고 폐 자동차 촉매전환기의 추출용액을 함침시킨 광촉매를 변조하여 band-gap energy를 1.76eV(705 nm)의 가시광 영역까지 조절하였다. 변조된 광촉매는 PVC가 주성분인 벽지 코팅제와 농도별로 혼합하여 광화학반응을 위한 기능성 도료를 제조하였다. 이 도료를 사용하여 광촉매가 코팅된 기능성 벽지를 제조하였으며, 제조된 벽지의 광촉매 성능을 평가하였다. 반응모델 물질로 NO를 이용하여 촉매 조성, 반응물 농도, 벽지의 촉매 담지량, 반응시간에 따른 광 화학반응속도를 측정하였다. 그 결과 폐 자동차 촉매전환기의 추출용액으로 변조된 $TiO_2$의 광촉매 활성이 크게 증가하였음을 알 수 있었고 그 중에서도 P-25에 추출용액을 함침시킨 P-25(w)의 광촉매가 가장 우수한 광촉매활성도를 나타내었다.

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.

Bimetallic Pd@Ni nanostructure exhibited enhanced co-catalytic activity for the selective hydrogenation of benzaldehyde compare to their monometallic counterparts. Impregnation of these mono/bimetallic nanostructures on mesoporous $TiO_2$ leads to several surface modifications. The bimetallic PNT-3 ($Pd_3@Ni_1/mTiO_2$) exhibited large surface area ($212m^2g^{-1}$), and low recombination rate of the charge carriers ($e^--h^+$). The hydrogenation reaction was analyzed under controlled experiments. It was observed that under UV-light irradiations and saturated hydrogen atmosphere the bimetallic PNT-3 photocatalyst display higher rate constant $k=5.31{\times}10^{-1}h^{-1}$ owing to reduction in the barrier height which leads to efficiently transfer of electron at bimetallic/$mTiO_2$ interface.

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.

수중 금속이온 착화용 공업세정제를 비롯하여 산업적으로 다양한 용도로 폭넓게 사용되고 있는 EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid)는 수처리시 금속이온들을 제거할 경우에 방해요인으로 작용하므로, EDTA를 우선적으로 분해하여 착화결합을 끊어야 금속이온들의 제거가 용이해진다. 본 연구에서는, $TiO_2$ (Degussa P-25)를 사용하여 1.79 mM의 초기 Cu(II)-EDTA 수용액 농도와 $20^{\circ}C$의 호기성 분위기 하에서, 촉매의 양과 초기의 수용액 pH가 Cu(II)-EDTA 착물의 산화에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. $TiO_2$량이 2.0 g/L일 경우에 EDTA, Cu와 TOC 감소율이 최대로 나타났고, DETA의 촉매표면 흡착은 $TiO_2$ 표면전하에 의해 영향을 받으며 광-촉매 반응에 의한 EDTA의 분해는 광-조사전의 촉매표면 흡착에 의존하는 것으로 보였다.

A $ZrO_2$ coating solution containing $ZrO_2$ photo-catalysis, which is transparent in visible light, was prepared by the hydrolysis of alkoxide, and thin films on the $SiO_2$ glass substrate were formed in a dipcoating method. These thin films were heat-treated at temperatures ranging from $250^{\circ}C-800^{\circ}C$ and their characteristics were subjected to thermal analysis, XRD, spectrometry, SEM, EDS, contact angle measurement, and AFM. Tetragonal $ZrO_2$ phase was found in the thin film heat treated at $450^{\circ}C$, and anatase $TiO_2$ phase was detected in the thin film heat-treated at $600^{\circ}C$ and above. The thickness of the films was approximately 300 nm, and the roughness was 0.66 nm. Thus, the film properties are excellent. The films are super hydrophilic with a contact angle of $4.0^{\circ}$; moreover, they have self-cleaning effect due to the photo catalytic property of anatase $TiO_2$.

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are considered as the precursors of atmospheric ozone and photochemical smog formation. In particular, chemical plants have produced a lot of VOCs and thus they have been forced to reduce or remove air emissions from the on-site chemical facilities. For the effective removal of VOCs produced in the chemical plants, the authors employed a titanium oxide(TiO$_2$) mediated photo-catalytic oxidation method. The initiation methods employed in this study to produce oxygen radicals for th photo-catalytic oxidation of the VOCs were Ultra-Violet(UV), Non-Thermal Plasma(NTS), and a combination of Uv and NTP. This study focused on a comparison of the removal efficiencies of VOCs as a function of the initiation method such as NTP and/or UV techniques. Removal efficiency change of VOCs as was investigated as a function of the wavelength of the UV lamp(254, 302, and 365 nm) and the degree of TiO$_2$ coating (10 and 30%). In this study, it was identified that removal efficiencies if the VOCs under the normal air environment were much better than those under the nitrogen gas environment containing small amount of oxygen. Removal efficiency by NTP technique was much better than the UV or the combination of UV and NTP techniques. In a comparison if UV wavelengths employed, it was found that shorter wavelength showed better removal efficiency, compared with longer ones. When the removal efficiencies of VOCs were compared in terms of the degree of TiO$_2$ coating, the higher TiO$_2$coating showed better removal efficiency that the lower TiO$_2$ coating

It prepared the $TiO_2$ powder which has photo-catalytic activity in the visible-light by the wet process with titanium oxysulfate. The titanium $dioxide(TiO_2)$ by the wet process creates a new absorption band in the visible light region, and is expected to create photocatalytic activity in this region. Anatase $TiO_2$ powder which has photocatalytic activity in the visible light region, is treated using microwave and radio-frequency(RF) plasma. But, the $TiO_2$ powder for the visible light region, which also can be easily produced by wet process. The wet process $TiO_2$ absorbed visible light between 400nm and 600nm, and showed a high activity in this region, as measured by the oxidation removal of aceton from the gas phase. The AH-380 sample appears the yellow color to be strong, the catalytic activity in the visible ray was excellent in comparison with the plasma-treated $TiO_2$. The AH-380 $TiO_2$ powder, which can be easily produced on a large scale, is expected to have higher efficiency in utilizing solar energy than the plasma-treated $TiO_2$ powder.
