Deodorizing method with photocatalyst
Abstract
PURPOSE:To allow the decomposition reaction of a malodor with a photo- catalyst to proceed efficiently by corrugating the photocatalyst supporting a semiconductor, introducing gas contg. the malodor and irradiating the photocatalyst with UV. CONSTITUTION:Alumina-silica ceramic paper is corrugated at a specified height of corrugation and a specified pitch and a titania sol is impregnated into the corrugated paper, dried and heat-treated to support titanium oxide. The resulting photocatalyst 1 is set on the bottom of a reactor and air contg. a malodor is discharged from a cylinder. A UV lamp 3 is then lighted to irradiate the photocatalyst with UV. Since the photocatalyst is corrugated, a turbulent flow is generated to increase the efficiency of contact of the photocatalyst with the gas and the amt. of the photocatalyst irradiated with UV is increased even in a narrow space.

The amount of support of oxidization Chitan was made into 400g/d A ladle in this example. 2 which Drawing 2 shows 2 the circulation type measuring device which measures the decomposition rate in r A bus of a Likelihood catalyst reaction, and *r is consisted of Senelesss -- anti- -- 3 : are H and width 30. 5+++m and length 120tlIm do photocatalyst 2a4 and the set of on the bottom -- this meeting -- window 2k of a quartz board -- Establishment {J ing. Ultraviolet-rays moon 3 is established in truth I2 which is window 21. 2c.2d is a turning blade, is A(ed) f carried out, makes a 5-mm crevice both the methods of F, and is 1 To. Bon into whom, as for 4, bad smell gas went -- 5 -- empty . which is the cylinder which was sudden, the JE power 4 1 regulation 4'' To regulator of the gas by which 6a and 6b are Discharge(ed) to Vo >, respectively, and 7a.7h do not boil Flow regulator, and 8 does not boil two kinds of gas Uniformity 1 -- To do a job -- it is a mixer of a sake. The method tap of a ball to whom 9 changes the bypass and reaction side, and 10 are piping which ties each element, and . which comprises Galaxy, fluorine resin, the stainless steel 1 A second, etc., and 11.12.13 are the rubber plugs for the sampling of gas. Using germicidal light G I of power consumption ten b1, and 10, it sets to ultraviolet-rays light 3 so that photocatalyst 2a table-oriented ultraviolet-rays intensity may be set to 3.0 mW (setting in wavelength of 250 nm), and it is It was. The total flow of gas adjusted flow regulation machines 7a and 7b so that it might be set to 2e./'tn i n. Next, the operation method of this circulation type measuring device is explained. 2 {J sets of reaction machines carry out photocatalyst 2a, after 1 and It was, 4.5 are opened in Bon, Evil gas and air are taken out so that Mikata-1 Poke 9 may be opened to the bypass side, flow regulation machine 7;1 and 7b are adjusted suitably, and it is between [ it is for a while ] neglect 1-To. When the flow of gas is stabilized, the Zambu ring of the gas is carried out by Syringe from rubber Katsura ↓1, and it is Gask"].
It analyzes by Matography and measures concentration. Departure flow regulation machines 7a and 71 are adjusted, and in the stage stable to a set flow rate and setting concentration, mixed gas turns on ultraviolet-rays light 3, and irradiates photocatalyst 2a with ultraviolet rays for 5 minutes. Next, it changes so that the Mikata tap 9 may be opened to the reaction side, and it is neglect 1 To for 5 minutes. after that people [-- rubber plug 12 of] -- coming out -- rubber plug 13 of [J -- more -- respectively -- Syringe -- Ga 7 -- Depart and Sling ring carry out and it conducts concentration analysis for 120 minutes at intervals of 10 minutes by gas setting sun Matography. The gas concentration of this person 1" and appearance 1-1 is substituted for a following formula, and decomposition rate m of the bad smell gas by photocatalyst 2a is calculated. m= (1-b/a)XIOO However, m; decomposition rate (%>) a: Entrance bad smell gas concentration b= exit bad smell gas concentration This decomposition rate is an average decomposition rate in the time of the decomposition rate of each time being stabilized. The result of having carried out comparison measurement of the decomposition rate to below about the photocatalyst of the shape of a corrugated panel of this example of an experiment and the conventional plate-like photocatalyst is shown. After the ceramic paper of the 0.5-mm-thick quality of alumina silica is impregnated with the plate-like photocatalyst used for comparison in Titania sol, it is heat-treated by after-dryness about 400 degrees C~700-degreeC, and carries out about 300 g/J support of the titanium oxide. 15 ppm acetaldehyde was used as bad smell gas. This measurement result is shown in the 1st table. 1st Table A decomposition rate can be raised 30 percent or more by using a corrugated panel-like photocatalyst so that clearly from this result. Next, the second example of an experiment is explained. In addition to the catalyst of the titanium oxide used in the first above-mentioned example of an experiment, in this example of an experiment, the mixed catalyst of titanium oxide and tungstic oxide was used. After this mixed catalyst impregnates with and dries Titania sol to the ceramic paper of the 0.5-mm-thick quality of alumina silica, Titanium oxide and tungstic oxide are made to support with the method of heat-treating by about 400 degrees C~700 degreeC, and it being impregnated and heat-treating meta-ammonium tungstate again after that. In this case, the ratio of titanium oxide and tungstic oxide was 85+15 in the weight ratio, and the amount of support was total and it made it into about 600 g/J. In this example, the height of the wave was 2 mm and the pitch was taken as 3I. Elegance was made plate-like like the first above-mentioned example of an experiment conventionally which was used for comparison. Each size of the used catalyst was 63 mm in diameter. It experimented in the following procedures by the above conditions. The mixed catalyst of titanium oxide and tungstic oxide is first put on stainless stand 27 shown in Drawing 3, and it adjusts so that the distance from ultraviolet-rays light 23 may be set to 100 mm into reaction machine 22 made from the aluminum of content volume 36e. Using the germicidal light of IOW for ultraviolet-rays light 23, the ultraviolet-rays intensity in the wavelength of 250 nm at this time is 1.. It was 6 beW/cJ. Into this reaction machine 22, the saturated gas of acetaldehyde is poured in from Sampling 24, It agitated by fan 25, concentration was made uniform, and the peak area of the gas chromatograph made the decomposition rate per minute in the average for 30 minutes after the moment which showed 100000 (it is equivalent to 70 ppm at acetaldehyde concentration) the decomposition performance of the catalyst. Next, the decomposition performance of hydrogen sulfide was measured about the titanium oxide catalyst. In this case, catalyst 26 was put on the distance of these ultraviolet-rays lights 23-1001, using the germicidal light of 100W as ultraviolet-rays light 23. At this time, the ultraviolet-rays intensity in the wavelength of 250 nm was 17 mW/cnf. From 70 ppm, the initial concentration of hydrogen sulfide was adjusted a little more highly, and asked for the decomposition performance like the case of before aceti aldehyde using gas chromatography. The decomposition performance of hydrogen sulfide was made into the decomposition rate per minute in the average for 30 minutes after the moment which showed the concentration of 70 ppm. This result is shown in the 2nd table. 2nd Table Notes: AA acetaldehyde Thus, in the decomposition performance of acetaldehyde, the direction of the shape of a 5 or more vJ corrugated panel is efficient in hydrogen sulfide 30 percent or more. EFFECT OF THE INVENTION by making a photocatalyst into the shape of a corrugated panel, the deodorization method by the photocatalyst of the present invention can increase the area, can improve contact efficiency with bad smell gas simultaneously, and is efficiency about the decomposition reaction of the bad smell by photocatalyst operation so that clearly from the above explanation - To proceed -- things are made and it is a very effective invention.
