Cerium doped anatase titania powders were prepared by sol-gel process, with ammonium (IV) nitrate and Titanium (IV) butoxide as the raw materials. The characteristics of anatase $TiO_2$ and cerium doped $TiO_2$ were investigated by XRD, DTA, FE-SEM and UV/Vis spectroscopy. Research results indicated that XRD data characteristic diffraction peaks of anatase phase and also showed that cerium phase was not observed. Moreover XRD and DTA results imply that the addition of cerium to titania modifies the mechanism of formation of the titania phases.

$TiO_2$ is an environment-friendly semiconducting material, and it has photocatalytic and hydrophilic effect. There are a lot of reports on the photocatalytic characteristics of $TiO_2$, such as organic pollutants resolving, anti-bacterial, and self-purification material. In this paper, $TiO_2$ micron-sized powders were deposited on the glass by room temperature powder spray in vacuum process, so called aerosol deposition (AD), and nano-grained $TiO_2$ photocatalytic thin films were fabricated. The thickness of the films were controlled by changing the number of deposition cycle. Morphologies and characteristics of the AD-$TiO_2$ thin films were examined by SEM, TEM, XRD, and UV-Visible Spectrophotometer. As the thickness of $TiO_2$ films increased, surface roughness increased. By this increment, the reaction area between film and pollutant was enlarged, resulting in better photocatalytic property.

DCCA로 1-도데카놀을 이용한 수식 졸-겔법에 의한 $TiO_2-SiO_2$계분체를 합성하였으며, 이들 합성분체에 대한 characterization과 광활성촉매에 대해 검토하였다. $500^{\circ}C$까지의 감량변화는 TiO2단독분체가 33.0wt%, $TiO_2/SiO_2$의 몰비가 75/25, 50/50 및 25/75인 분체는 각각 67.0wt%, 70.0wt% 및 73.0wt%, 그리고 $SiO_2$단독분체는 42.5wt%이였다. 이들 탈리는 거의 대부분이 유기물질이였다. 합성직후의 분체는 $TiO_2$단독분체를 제외하고는 무정형화합물이였고, 아나타아제의 루틸로의 상전이는 $SiO_2$에 의해 억제되었다. 합성직후의 분체는 입자의 형태가 관찰되지 않았으나, $600^{\circ}C$, 1시간 가열에 의한 $TiO_2$단독분체, $TiO_2/SiO_2$의 몰비가 75/25 및 50/50인 분체는 모두 서브미크론의 입자를 보였으며, 몰비가 25/75의 분체 및 $SiO_2$단독분체는 여전히 벌크상태였다. 비표면적 역시 $SiO_2$의 증가와 함께 증가하였으며, 세공크기 역시 $SiO_2$성분에 의존하였다. 그리고 이들 가열물의 광촉매활성은, $TiO_2/SiO_2$의 몰비가 75/25인 분체의 경우, 수소발생량으로 $0.240{\mu}mol/h.g-cat.$을 나타내었으며, $TiO_2$단독분체의 그것보다는 약 2.6배, 표준광촉매물질인 P-25(Degussa P-25)보다는 약 2.0배 가량 큰 값을 나타냈다.

탄소섬유 한외여과막 및 광촉매 혼성 수처리를 위해 관형 여과막 외부와 원통형 막 모듈 내부 사이 공간에 광촉매를 충전하였다. 광촉매는 PP (polypropylene) 구에 이산화티타늄 분말을 플라즈마 화학증착 공정으로 코팅한 것이다. 휴믹산과 카올린 모사용액을 대상으로 막오염을 최소화하기 위해 10분 주기로 10초 동안 물 역세척을 시행하였다. 기존 결과와 동일하게 휴믹산을 10 mg/L부터 2 mg/L로 변화시킴에 따라, 막오염에 의한 저항 ($R_f$)이 감소하여 2 mg/L에서 최대 총여과부피 ($V_T$)를 얻었다. 탁도와 휴믹산의 처리효율은 각각 97.1%와 74.2% 이상으로 휴믹산 농도의 영향을 받지 않았다. 그러나 기존 결과에서는 휴믹산의 농도가 증가할수록 휴믹산의 처리효율이 다소 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다.

The Electron/Hole Pair is generated when the activation energy produced by ultraviolet ray illuminates to the semiconductor and OH- ion produced by water photocleavage reacts with positive Hole. As a results, OH radical acting as strong oxidant is generated and then Photocatalytic oxidation reaction occurs. The photocatalytic oxidation can oxidate the non-degradable and hazardous organic substances such as pesticides and aromatic materials easier, safer and shorter than conventional water treatment process. So in this study, many factors influencing the oxidation of chlorophenols, such as inorganic electrolytes addition, change of oxygen and nitrogen atmosphere, temperature, pH, oxygen concentration, chlorophenol concentration, were throughly examined. According to the experiments observations, it is founded that the rate of chlorophenol oxidation follows a first-order reaction and the modified Langmuir-Hinshelwood relationship. And the photocatalytic oxidation occurs only when activation energy acting as Electron/Hole generation, oxygen acting as electron acceptor to prevent Electron/Hole recombination, $TiO_2$ powder acting as photocatalyst are present. The effects of variation of dissolved oxygen concentration, temperature and inorganic electrolytes concentration on 2-chlorophenol oxidation are negligible. And the lower the organic concentration, the higher the oxidation efficiency becomes. Therefore, the photocatalytic oxidation is much effective to oxidation of hazardous substances at very low concentration. The oxidation is effective in the range of 0.1 g/L-10 g/L of $TiO_2$. Finally when the ultra-violet ray is illuminated to $TiO_2$, the surface characteristics of $TiO_2$ change and Adsorption/Desorption reaction on $TiO_2$ surface occurs.

본 총론에서는 원자층 증착을 이용한 친환경 소재의 개발에 대한 최근 연구 결과들을 간단하게 소개하려 한다. 원자층 증착의 장점은 박막의 두께를 미세하게 조절할 수 있다는 것과, 3차원적으로 복잡한 구조를 가지는 담체의 형상을 유지하면서 균일한 박막을 제조할 수 있다는 것이다. 이러한 원자층 증착의 장점은 친환경소재를 제조하는 데 중요한 역할을 할 수 있다. Anodic aluminum oxide (AAO)와 같은 다공성 membrane을 담체로 이용하여, 다공성 구조는 그대로 유지하면서 10나노미터 정도의 $TiO_2$박막을 균일하게 증착할 경우 톨루엔 등의 휘발성 유기물 필터로 사용할 수 있는데, 이는 AAO의 특이한 기하학적 구조와 비정질 $TiO_2$의 강한 휘발성 유기물 흡착력의 조합에 의한 결과이다. 톨루엔 분해용 광촉매 및 이산화탄소 개질 반응에 의한 수소 생산 촉매 반응에 있어서도 나노다이아몬드나 니켈 담체 위에 $TiO_2$의 증착량을 미세하게 조절하여 $TiO_2$가 표면을 완전히 덮지 않고 부분적으로만 덮고 있는 구조를 만들 경우 촉매의 효율 및 수명을 극대화할 수 있게 된다. 이러한 예들은 원자층 증착이 기존의 반도체산업뿐만 아니라 환경소재의 개발에도 중요한 도구가 될 수 있음을 의미한다.

Water quality is crucial for human health and the environment. Accurate measurement of the quantity of organic carbon in water is essential for water quality evaluation, identification of water pollution sources, and appropriate implementation of water treatment measures. Total organic carbon (TOC) analysis is an important tool for this purpose. Although other methods, such as chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) are also used to measure organic carbon in water, they have limitations that make TOC analysis a more favorable option in certain situations. For example, COD requires the use of toxic chemicals, and BOD is time-consuming and can produce inconsistent and unreliable results. In contrast, TOC analysis is rapid and reliable, providing accurate measurements of organic carbon content in water. However, common methods for TOC analysis can be complex and energy-intensive because of the use of high-temperature heaters for liquid-to-gas phase transitions and the use of acid, which present safety risks. This study focuses on a TOC analysis method using TiO₂ photocatalysis, which has several advantages over conventional TOC analysis methods, including its low cost and easy maintenance. For TiO₂, rutile and anatase powders are mixed with an inorganic binder and spray-coated onto a glass fiber substrate. The TiO₂ powder and inorganic binder solutions are adjusted to optimize the photocatalytic reaction performance. The TiO₂ photocatalysis method is a simple and low-power approach to TOC analysis, making it a promising alternative to commonly used TOC analysis methods. This study aims to contribute to the development of more efficient and cost-effective approaches for water quality analysis and management by exploring the effectiveness and reliability of the developed equipment.

A simple chemical precipitation technique is reported for the synthesis of a hybrid nanostructure of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and titania ($TiO_2$) nanocrystals of average size 5 nm, which may be useful as a prominent photocatalytic material with improved functionality. The synthesized hybrid structure has been characterized by transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX), powder X-ray diffractometry (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy. It is clearly revealed that nearly monodispersed titania nanocrystals (anatase phase) of average size 5 nm decorate the surfaces of SWCNT bundles. The UV-vis absorption study shows a blue shift of 16 nm in the absorbance peak position of the composite material compared to the unmodified SWCNTs. The photoluminescence study shows a violet-blue emission in the range of 325-500 nm with a peak emission at 400 nm. The low temperature electrical transport property of the synthesized nanomaterial has been studied between 77-300 K. The DC conductivity shows semiconductor-like characteristics with conductivity increasing sharply with temperature in the range of 175-300 K. Such nanocomposites may find wide applications as improved photocatalyst due to transfer of photo-ejected electrons from $TiO_2$ to SWCNT, thus reducing recombination, with the SWCNT scaffold providing a firm and better positioning of the catalytic material.

희토류 원소를 기반으로한 알루미늄산 형광체에 담지된 산화티탄은 졸겔방법 으로 제조되었다. 이렇게 제조된 산화티탄 나노입자의 재료물성을 분석하기 위해 XRD, FT-IR, DRS UV-Vis, TEM 측정을 실시하였다. 형광체에 담지된 산화티탄 입자의 소결 전후의 XRD분석결과는 600도 이상의 온도에서 아나타제에서 루틸로 상변화가 일어나지 않았다. 600도 이상의 온도에서 지속적인(장시간) 열처리 후에도 형광체에 담지된 산화티탄이 결정화도가 높은 아나타제로 존재 하는 것은 형광체 지지체와 담지된 산화티탄의 서로 다른 결정입계에 의하여 결정성장과 상변화에 필요한 치밀화가 억제되기 때문으로 판단된다. DRS측정결과 형광체에 담지된 산화티탄은 산화티탄이 없는 형광체에 비하여 보다 긴 장파로 쉬프트한 것은 밴드갭 에너지의 환원을 나타낸다. 이러한 형광체에 담지된 산화티탄의 FT-IR 스펙트럼은 피크의 위치가 더 높은 파수로 이동하였다. 이것은 산화티탄 입자와 지지체 사이의 공유결합이 관계하기 때문 이라 판단된다. TEM 이미지는 형광체 지지체에 다른 입자 크기로 담지되어 있는 산화티탄의 분산, 결정화 및 입자 형상을 나타낸다.

Titania particles are widely used as a photocatalyst to treat various contaminants in air and water. Titania particles were formed by vapor-phase oxidation of titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP) in a tube furnace between 773 and 1,273 K. The effect of process variables such as furnace temperature, flow rate of carrier air, and flow rate of sheath air on powder size and phase characteristics was investigated using a scanning mobility particle sizer (SMPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The size distribution of synthesized titania particles was characterized with mode diameter and peak concentration. The mode diameter ranging from 20 to 80 nm decreased with increasing flow rates of sheath air and carrier air, and increased with increasing furnace temperature. The peak concentration increased with increasing flow rates of sheath air and carrier air The best synthetic condition for high production rate can be derived from the experimental data set represented by mode diameter and peak concentration. The crystal structure of synthesized titania particles was found to be anatase phase, ensuring high photocatalytic potential.
