The titania nanotubular layer for photocatalytic application was synthesized by anodization process in HF solution and the photocatalytic efficiencies of nanotubular film were evaluated by the decomposition rate of aniline blue. In order to facilitate the photocatalytic reaction, the electron acceptors such as potassium bromate, hydrogen peroxide and ammonium persulfate were added to aniline blue solution and the effects of electron acceptors on the dye degradation efficiency were evaluated. The results showed that the photocatalytic efficiency has markedly improved by adding the electron acceptors.

This study was carried out to improve the photocatalytic reaction of TiO₂ photocatalyst. During the photocatalytic reaction, OH radicals are generated and they have an excellent oxidation capability for wastewater treatment. To evaluate the OH radicals generated according to crystallographic structure of TiO₂ nanotubes photocatalyst, a probe compound, 4-Chlorobenzoic acid was monitored to evaluate OH radical. Ultraviolet light was applied for photocatalytic reaction of TiO₂. The 4-Chlorobenzoic acid solution was prepared at laboratory. TiO₂ nanotube was grown on titanium plate by using anodization method. The annealing temperature for TiO₂ nanotube was varied from 400 to 900 ℃ and the crystal forms of the TiO₂ nanotube was analyzed. Depending on annealing temperature, TiO₂ nanotubes have shown different crystal forms; 100% anatase (0 % rutile), 18.4 % rutile (81.6 % anatase), 36.6 % rutile (63.4 % anatase) and 98.6% rutile (1.4% anatase). As the annealing temperature increases, the rutile ratio increases. OH radical generation from 18.4 % rutile TiO₂ nanotube plate was about 3.8 times higher than before annealing and 1.4 times higher than only 100 % anatase-TiO₂ nanotube. The efficiency of the 18.4% rutile TiO₂ nanotube was the best in comparison to TiO₂ nanotube with 18.4 %, 36.6 % and 98.6 % rutile. As a result, photocatalytic ability of 18.4 % rutile-TiO₂ nanotube plate was higher than 100 % anatase-TiO₂ nanotube plate.

In this study, a portable total-phosphorus (TP) monitoring system utilizing a photocatalytic-reaction-based pretreatment method is proposed, fabricated, and characterized. Commercial TP monitoring systems are only used in laboratories because of their complex monitoring procedure, bulk-size, and high-cost. In particular, pretreatment in commercial TP monitoring systems is performed at high temperatures (> 120 ℃) and pressure (> 1.1 kg cm^-2) making it difficult to minimize the scale of the systems. The proposed TP monitoring system employs a pretreatment method with a photocatalytic reaction; thus, its size can be reduced, as photocatalytic reactions occur at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Analytes with various TP concentrations are pretreated using the proposed portable TP monitoring system and are quantitatively measured with an LED and a photodiode.

감응제 rose bengal과 초감응제 $I^-$를 포함하는 광전기화학쎌을 이용하여 태양에너지를 전기적 에너지로 전환할 때 광전류는 안정화되고 지속적이지만 장시간의 광조사시에는 서서히 감소한다. 염료용액을 분광학적 및 전기화학적으로 분석한 결과 rose bengal과 $I^-$의 광촉매 반응에 의하여 $I_2$가 생성되고 $I_2$가 빛이 없는 조건하에서도 rose bengal과 반응하여 염료 농도를 감소 시키는것이 확인되었다.

Nanometer sized zinc oxide (ZnO) powder was synthesized by a novel "solution-combustion method" and its photocatalytic activity was evaluated with the recovery of Ag from a used photofilm developing solution. Different parameters affecting the reaction rates like wavelength of the W light used, reaction temperature, mass of the used photocatalyst, and effect of scavenger were tested. The optimum parameters were found as follows. UV wavelength of less than 385nm, reaction temperature between 40- 60 $^{\circ}C$, photocatalyst concentration of 3-6 g/1, and scavenger concentration of 0.3-0.4 g/1.

In this study, flat-type photocatalytic reaction system is applied to reduce toxic hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) to trivalent chromium (Cr(III)) in aqueous solution under UV irradiation. To overcome the limitation of conventional photocatalysis, a novel approach toward photocatalytic system for reduction of hexavalent chromium including nanotubular $TiO_2$ (NTT) on two kinds of titanium substrates (foil and mesh) were established. In addition, modified Ti substrates were prepared by bending treatment to increase reaction efficiency of Cr(VI) in the flat-type photocatalytic reactor. For the fabrication of NTT on Ti substrates, Ti foil and mesh was anodized with mixed electrolytes ($NH_4F-H_2O-C_2H_6O_2$) and then annealed in ambient oxygen. The prepared NTT arrays were uniformly grown on two Ti substrates and surface property measurements were performed through SEM and XRD. Hydraulic retention time(HRT) and substrate type were significantly affected the Cr(VI) reduction. Hence, the photocatalytic Cr(VI) reduction was observed to be highest up to 95% at bended(modified) Ti mesh and lowest HRT. Especially, Ti mesh was more effective as NTT substrate in this research.

VOC(Volatile Organic Compound) removal characteristics in continuous flow reactors have been numerically investigated. The photocatalytic reaction have been simulated with the binding constant and the reaction rate constant obtained from experimental data for the constant-volume batch reactor, and then VOC abatement in continuous flow reactors with the same conditions as those of batch reactor has been analyzed. The standard 4\kappa-\varepsilon$ model and mass conservation equation have been employed for numerical calculation, and heterogeneous reaction rate has been used in terms of the boundary condition of the conservation equation. in the case of the continuous flow reactor, reaction characteristics have been estimated with various inlet velocities and with different number of baffles. The result shows that the concentration distribution and flow patterns are strongly affected by the inlet velocity, and that with the increased inlet velocity, VOC removal rate is increased, while removal efficiency is decreased. This result may be useful in the design of reactors with improved VOC removal efficiency.

To improve photocatalytic performance, a $PbS/ZnO/TiO_2$ nanotube catalyst was synthesized, and its surface characteristics and photocatalytic efficiency were investigated. The hybrid photocatalysts were produced by anodic oxidation and successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction(SILAR). The photocatalytic efficiency was evaluated using the dye degradation rate. The $PbS/ZnO/TiO_2$ photocatalyst significantly enhanced the photocatalytic activity for dye degradation, which was ascribed to the synergistic effect of their better absorption of solar light and a decrease in the rate of excited electron-hole recombination.

methylethylketone(MEK)의 광분해 특성을 연속식 단일관형태의 광촉매반응기를 이용하여 연구하였다. 연속식 광촉매반응기에 적용된 주요 반응변수는 MEK의 초기농도, 광세기, 장기운전의 영향이었다. MEK의 주입농도가 증가할수록 광분해 효율은 감소하였으며, 광분해 감소의 폭은 높은 유속에서 더욱 두드러졌다. 동일한 체류시간의 조건에서 광반응기의 직경과 UV램프의 파장이 증가할수록 MEK제거효율은 감소하였다. 연속식 광촉매반응기를 120시간 연속적으로 운전하여도 MEK 제거효율에서의 감소는 없었다.
