관상의 광촉매 반응기에서 Pt가 담지된 $TiO_2$ 광촉매를 사용한 CO 전환 반응에 의해 CO를 제거하는 광촉매 공정에 대해 고찰하였다. $TiO_2$ 촉매에 Pt를 담지하는 방법, CO를 포함한 기체흐름속도, 기체흐름에 포함된 CO의 농도 그리고 기체의 수분함량이 CO를 $CO_2$로 전환하는 반응의 전환율에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. Pt/$TiO_2$ 광촉매가 관의 내부에 코팅된 관상광촉매 반응기에서 진행된 실험결과 기체의 흐름속도 범위가 0.01~0.25 m/s, CO의 농도가 20~100 ppm 그리고 기체의 상대습도가 20~40%의 범위에서 CO는 UV의 조사 조건에서 거의 100% 정도 제거될 수 있었다. 기체흐름에 포함된 CO의 전환율은 기체의 흐름속도가 증가할수록 그리고 포함된 CO의 농도가 증가할수록 점점 감소하였다. 기체 흐름에 포함된 수분은 OH 라디칼을 형성함으로써 CO의 제거를 촉진할 수 있었다.

Application of photocatalytic nanoparticles has been recently gaining an increased attention as air purifying material for sustainable urban development. The present work reports the photocatalytic removal of gaseous phase nitrogen oxides ($NO_x$) using $TiO_2$-coated zeolite to be applied as a filter media for the urban green infrastructure such as raingardens. The $TiO_2$-coated zeolite was synthesized by simple wet chemistry method and tested in a continuous-flow photo-reactor for its removal efficiency of $NO_x$ under different conditions of the weight percentage of $TiO_2$ coated on the zeolite, and gas retention time. The removal efficiency of $NO_x$ in general increased as the weight percentage of $TiO_2$ coated on the zeolite increased up to 15-20%. Greater than 90% of $NO_x$ was removed at a retention time of one minute using the $TiO_2$-coated zeolite ($TiO_2$ weight percentage = 20%). Overall, $TiO_2$-coated zeolite showed greater efficiency of $NO_x$ removal compared to $TiO_2$ powder probably by providing additional reaction sites from the porous structure of zeolite. It was presumed that the degradation of $NO_x$ is attributed to both the physical adsorption and photocatalytic oxidation that could simultaneously occur at the catalyst surface.

$TiO_2-catalyst$ suspensions work efficiently in Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) for wastewater treatment. Nevertheless, once photocatalysis is completed, separation of the catalyst from solution becomes the main problem. The PCO of Cu(II)-EDTA was studied to determine the reusability of the titanium dioxide catalyst. Aqueous solutions of $10^{-4}M$ Cu(II)-EDTA were treated using illuminated $TiO_2$ particles at pH 6 in a circulating reactor. $TiO_2$ was reused in PCO system for treatment of Cu(II)-EDTA comparing two procedures: reuse of water and $TiO_2$ and reuse of the entire suspension after PCO of Cu(II)-EDTA. The results are as follows; (i) Photocatalytic efficiency worsens with successive runs when catalyst and water are reused without separation and filtration, whereas, when $TiO_2$ is separated from water, the reused $TiO_2$ is not deactivated. (ii) The $TiO_2$ mean recovery (%) with reused $TiO_2$ was 86.4%(1.73g/L). Although the mean initial degradation rate of Cu(II)-EDTA and Cu(II) was lower than that using fresh $TiO_2$, there was no significant change in the rate during the course of the three-trial experiment. It is suggested that Cu(II)-EDTA could be effectively treated using an recycling procedure of PCO and catalyst recovery. (iii) However, without $TiO_2$ separation, the loss of efficiency of the PCO in the use of water and $TiO_2$ due to Cu(II), DOC remained from previous degradation and Cu(II)-EDTA added to the same suspension was observed after 2 trials, and resulted in the inhibition of the Cu(II)-EDTA, Cu(II) and DOC destruction.

건축자재의 제작 및 도장공정, 합성수지 제조공정 등에서 많이 배출되는 휘발성 유기화합물(Volitile Organic Compounds, 이하 VOCs)은 이동성이 강하고 악취를 유발할 뿐만 아니라 마취성이 강하여 잠재적인 독성 및 발암성을 가진다. 이러한 VOCs의 제거방법 중 광촉매 제거법은 380 nm 이하의 자외선을 흡수하여 표면에서 생긴 전자와 정공으로 대부분의 유해물질을 제거하는 비교적 최근에 개발된 방법이다. 광촉매는 한번의 설치로 반영구적으로 사용할 수 있고 인체에 무해하며 유지비용이 적게 든다는 장점으로 인해 크게 부각되고 있다.

막 반응기(membrane reactor)는 365 nm 의 파장을 갖는 UV를 담체튜브 및 코팅막에 조사시켜 막 표면에서 유기물의 산화반응이 일어날수 있도록 고안하였으며 일차적으로 formic acid의 산화효율을 측정하였다. 코팅된 담체는 코팅하지 않은 담체에 비해 flux가 상당히 저하하는 반면에 formic acid의 산화효율은 이에 비례하여 증가하였다. 또한 본 실험의 결과로부터 수처리공정에서 문제시되는 난분해성 유기물질의 산화분해처리에 대한 광촉매 막의 응용성을 제시하고자 한다.

최근에 들어서 태양에너지의 화학적 에너지로의 변환에 대한 연구는 에너지 부족에 대한 대안으로서 각광을 받고 있는 분야이다. 이런 관심을 바탕으로 한 다양한 연구는 연속식 또는 회분식 반응기를 이용한 불균일계 촉매를 이용함으로써 진행되고 있고, 특히 기-액, 기-고 그리고 기-액-고상 반응기를 응용하는 광촉매 반응에 관심이 증폭되고 있다. 그리고 광촉매 반응이 실제 산업계에서 활용되기 전에 먼저 불균일계 광촉매 반응기의 설계기준에 대한 연구가 선행되어야 하며 실제 산업적인 응용측면에서도 광촉매 반응의 충분한 이용가능성에 관심이 이루어져야 한다.(중략)

Nanosize ZnO particles were prepared by oxidation of zinc vapor and the particle growth was modeled by a coagulation model by assuming that the characteristic time for reaction was much shorter than coagulation time and residence time (${\tau}_{reaction}{\ll}{\tau}_{coagulation}{\ll}{\tau}_{residence}$). Experimental measurement of zinc oxide particles diameter was consistent with the predicted result from the coagulation model. For practical purpose of predicting zinc oxide size in areosol reactor, the constant kernel solution is concluded to be sufficient, Uniqueness of nano-scale property of zinc oxide was confirmed by the higher photocatalytic activity of zinc oxide than nanosize titania particles.

The characteristics of heterogeneous photocatalytic decomposition were investigated at low concentration level of $O_3$on TiO$_2$for various operating parameters such as: loaded catalyst weight (0∼4 mg/$\textrm{cm}^2$), initial concentration of $O_3$(0.06∼10.0 ppm), gas flow rate (1.0 ∼ 2.5ι/min), and relative humidity (0∼80%). This study was conducted using a flow-type reactor at room temperature. Three kinds of pure TiO$_2$(P25, ST -01, and E- 23) were employed as photocatalyts. It was found that $O_3$removal ratio was identical, regardless of the loaded TiO$_2$weight in the range from 0.5 to 4.0 mg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. It was also found that higher initial ozone concentration results in greater oxidation rate of ozone and experimental data show kinetically a good agreement with Langmur-Hinshelwood kinetic model. We also observed that the removal ratio of $O_3$increases linearly with the increasing flow rate and also with the increasing relative humidity for each catalyst.
