In this study, we have prepared three kinds of carbon nanometer tube $CNT/TiO_{2}$ electrodes through impregnation with different concentration titanium n-butoxide (TNB) solution. The prepared electrodes were characterized with surface properties, structural crystallinity, elemental identification and photoelectrocatalytic activity. The $N_2$ adsorption data showed that the composites had decreased surface area compared with the pristine CNT. This indicated the blocking of micropores on the surface of CNT, which was further supported by observation via SEM. XRD results showed patterns for the composites and a typical single and clear anatase crystal structure. The main elements such as C, O and Ti were existed for all samples from the EDX data. The catalytic efficiency of the developed electrode was evaluated by the photoelectrodegradation of methylene blue (MB). The positive potential applied in photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) oxidation was studied. It was found that photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) decomposition of MB solution could be attributed to combination effects between $TiO_2$ photocatalytic and CNT electro-assisted. Through the comparison between photocatalytic (PC) oxidation and photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) oxidation, it was found that the PEC oxidation efficiency for MB is higher than that of PC oxidation.

In this study, we used activated carbon (AC) and charcoal (CH) as carbon sources with $TiO_2$ powder to prepare spherical carbons containing titania (SCCT) by using phenolic resin (PR) as a bonding agent. The physicochemical characteristics of the SCCT samples were examined by BET, XRD, SEM, EDX, iodine adsorption and compressive strength. The photocatalytic activity was evaluated by measuring the removal efficiency of three kinds of organic dyes: methylene blue (MB), methyl orange (MO) and rhodamine B (Rh.B) under a UV/SCCT system. In addition, evaluation of chemical oxygen demand (COD) of piggery waste was done at regular intervals and gave a good idea about the mineralization of wastewater.

Growth of TiO2 films prepared by atomic layer deposition (ALD) was studied on C fiber. Moreover, adsorption and photocatalytic decomposition of methylene blue on TiO2 thin films were studied. Preferential growth of TiO2 on steps of C surfaces could be identified by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) showed thickness-dependent positive core level shift of Ti, which can be interpreted in terms of enhanced final state charging for thicker films. Adsorption and photocatalytic behaviors of TiO2 thin films will be discussed in this poster.

Ag-modified BiOX (X=Cl, Br and I) nanoplates were synthesized by an ion-exchange reaction. We examined the fundamental properties by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron transmission microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction, UV-visible absorption, Fourier-transform infrared and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The adsorption and photocatalytic performances of the catalysts were tested with dyes under UV and visible light. A chemical scavenger method was employed to test the roles of active species (${\cdot}OH$, ${\cdot}O2-$ and h+) and understand photodegradation mechanism. Photoluminescence spectroscopy was used to examine ${\cdot}OH$ radical formation using terephthalic acid during photoirradiation.

The band structures and the densities of states at the Fermi energy for rutile, anatase and brookite phases are investigated along with the structure-photocatlaytic relationship by using DFT method. Bands are less dispersive in anatase phase than in rutile phase, and they are almost flat in brookite phase. As a result, the DOS value near the Fermi energy for brookite is highest among three types of $TiO_{2}$, which means that the numbers of electrons near the Fermi energy are largest in brookite. The calculation shows that brookite phase may exhibit highest photocatalytic efficiency among three types of $TiO_{2}$.
