$UV/TiO_2$ 허니컴 광촉매가 고정된 반응기에서 여러 운전 변수에 따른 페놀의 분해반응을 고찰하였다. 광촉매의 종류에 따른 페놀의 분해능을 비교한 결과, 이시하라사 STS-02로 코팅한 허니컴 광촉매는 데구사 P25에 비해 약간 높은 광산화 활성을 나타내 주었다. 반면에 국내 N사의 광촉매로 코팅한 허니컴의 경우에는 페놀의 광분해 효과가 거의 나타나지 않았다. 허니컴 광촉매는 데구사 P25의 코팅량이 증가함에 따라 페놀의 광산화 반응속도가 증가하는 경향을 나타내주었다. 데구사 P25로 코팅된 허니컴 반응기의 경우에 원수의 유량이 증가함에 따라 페놀의 광산화 속도가 지속적으로 증가하다가 500 mL/min 이상의 유속에서는 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 광촉매 표면이 페놀에 의해 미리 흡착된 경우에는 초기 반응시간에 자외선 조사에 의한 페놀의 부분산화 반응이 일어나 오히려 269 nm에서 페놀의 흡광도가 상승하는 결과를 나타내 주었다.

본 연구에서는 단순 침전법으로 제조한 CdS 및 CdZnS/ZnO 광촉매를 이용하여 가시광선하에서 로다민 B, 메틸 오렌지 및 메틸렌 블루 등에 대한 광분해 반응 연구를 수행하였다. 특히 염료와 광촉매의 물리화학적 성질이 전체 광촉매 반응의 반응 경로에 미치는 영향에 대해 중점을 두고 검토하였다. X선 회절분석법, UV-vis 확산반사 분광법 그리고 X선 광전자 분광분석법 등을 이용하여 제조된 촉매들의 물리화학적 특성을 분석하였다. CdS 및 CdZnS/ZnO 광촉매 모두 자외선뿐만 아니라 가시광선 영역에 있어서도 우수한 광흡수 특성을 나타내었다. 메틸 오렌지의 경우에는 CdS 및 CdZnS/ZnO 각각의 광촉매 상에서 동일한 반응기구를 통해 반응이 진행되는 반면, 로다민 B 및 메틸렌 블루는 각각의 광촉매 상에서 서로 다른 반응 경로를 통해 광분해 반응이 진행되는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 메틸렌 블루의 광분해 반응을 보면, CdZnS/ZnO 광촉매 상에서는 주로 단일분자 형태로 전체 반응이 진행되지만, CdS 상에서는 반응 초기부터 이량체를 형성하였다. 이와 같은 결과들은 CdS 및 CdZnS/ZnO 각각의 반도체 광촉매들의 전도대의 띠끝 전위 차이와 염료들의 흡착 특성 차이에 기인한 것으로 판단된다.

Photocatalytic reaction using $TiO_2$ thin film was applied for the inactivation of coliform bacteria and the degradation of formic acid. UV processes coupled with and without $TiO_2$ were tested for the river water samples. It took 5 and 15 minutes, respectively, to obtain 99% destruction of coliform bacteria in the total coliform test, which demonstrated the effectiveness of the photocatalytic reaction. Complete degradation of formic acid determined by TOC analysis was observed in 20 minutes by ozone/photocatalysis, while formic acid was degraded as little as about 20% during the first 100 minutes by ozone treatment alone. When ozone was supplied to the $TiO_2/UV$ system, however, it provided a synergetic effect for the degradation of formic acid.

This study evaluated the photocatalytic oxidation of BPA using the RPOD reactor under various conditions. This study found that the RPOD was effective for BPA degradation. It could reduce 1 mg/L of BPA by half within 5 min under the optimum conditions. According to the study results, $TiO_2$ coating was important for the BPA oxidation. As the coating thickness increased, the removal efficiency improved. The light source, the light intensity and the drum rotating speed were important for the oxidation. The UV light was more effective for the BPA degradation than the visible light. The removal efficiency improved with increasing intensity. As the drum speed increased, the removal efficiency improved. The maximum speed was 240 rpm in this study. Addition of air and nitrogen was not beneficial for the BPA degradation in this study probably due to enough oxygen in the water.

Nanosized palladium particles were synthesized using palladium(II) chloride, trisodium citrate dihydrate, and sodium borohydride under stirring condition. Nanosized palladium-graphene composites were prepared from palladium nanoparticles, and graphene was enclosed with polyallylamine under stirring condition for 1 h followed by ultrasonication for 3 h. Nanosized palladium-graphene composites were heated in an electric furnace at $700^{\circ}C$ for 2 h and characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. UV-vis spectrophotometry was used to evaluate the nanosized palladium-graphene composites as a catalyst in the photocatalytic degradation of various organic dyes such as methylene blue, methyl orange, rhodamine B, and brilliant green under ultraviolet light at 254 nm.

Chemical vapor deposition (CVD), ion beam sputtering (IBS) and sol-gel method were used to prepare TiO$_2$ thin films for degradation of hazardous organic compounds exemplified by 2-chlorophenol (2-CP). The influence of supporting materials and coating methods on the photocatalytic activity of the TiO$_2$ thin films were also studied. TiO$_2$ thin films were coated onto various supporting materials including steel cloth (SS), copper cloth, quartz glass tube (QGT), and silica gel (SG). Results indicate that SS (37 μm)- TiO$_2$ thin film prepared by IBS method improves the photodegradation of 2-CP. Among all supporting materials studied, SS(37 μm) is found to be the best support.

The metallorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) method has been used to prepare TiO2 thin films for the degradation of hazardous organic compounds, such as 2-chlorophenol (2-CP). The effect of supporting materials and metal doping on the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 thin films also has been studied. TiO2 thin films were coated onto various supporting materials, including stainless steel cloth(SS), quartz glass tube (QGT), and silica gel (SG). Transition metals, such as Pd(II), Pt(IV), Nd(III) and Fe(III), were doped onto TiO2 thin film. The results indicate that Nd(Ⅲ) doping improves the photodegradation of 2-CP. Among all supporting materials studied, SS(37 ${\mu}m)$ appears to be the best support. An optimal amount of doping material at 1.0 percent (w/w) of TiO2-substrate thin film gives the best photodegration of 2-CP.

Metal doping was adopted to modify TiO2 (P-25) and enhance the photocatalytic degradation of harmful cyanides in aqueous solution. Ni, Cu, Co, and Ag doped TiO2 were found to be active photocatalysts for UV light induced degradation of aqueous cyanides generating cyanate, nitrate and ammonia as main nitrogen-containing products. The photoactivity of Ni doped TiO2 was greatly affected by the state of Ni, that is, the crystal size and the degree of reduction of Ni. The modification effects of some mixed oxides, that is, Ni-Cu/TiO2 were also studied. The activity of Ni-Cu/TiO2 for any ratio of Cu/Ni was higher than that of Ni- or Cu-doped TiO2, and the catalyst at the Cu/Ni ratio of 0.3 showed the highest activity for cyanide conversion.

Hollow or bumpy ZnO structures with micrometer-size features have been investigated as photocatalysts for water purification due to their high surface area available for reaction with harmful organic molecules and relatively large size for easy separation after finishing the photocatalytic reaction. In this study, selective synthesis of ZnO hollow or crumpled microspheres was performed using a simple and versatile ultrasonic spray pyrolysis process with various zinc precursors. The morphologies, phases, specific surface areas, and optical properties of the microspheres were characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electronic microscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms, and UV-vis spectroscopy. In addition, the mechanism underlying the formation of different morphologies and their photocatalytic activities were systematically investigated.

Herein,the Neodymium ion ($Nd^{3+}$) doped CoAl-LDH have been successfully prepared via co-precipitation method and was used as a precursor of Nd-doped CoAl-mixed metal oxides (MMO). The photocatalytic activity of doped LDH and MMO was investigated in the degradation of an azo dye, C.I. Acid Red 14, under visible light irradiation. DRS and PL analysis demonstrated decreasing in the band gap energy and recombination of photo-induced charge carriers of Nd-doped LDH and MMO compared with the pristine CoAL-LDH. Due to significant difference in photocatalytic performance. A power law empirical kinetic model was obtained for predicting the photocatalytic degradation efficiency.
