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.

This mixed catalyst is prepared by impregnating an alumina-siliceous ceramic paper with a thickness of 0.5 mm with titania sol, drying it, heat-treating it at about 400°C to 700°C, and then impregnating it with ammonium metatungstate and heat-treating it again. This method supports titanium oxide and tungsten oxide. In this case, the ratio of titanium oxide to tungsten oxide was 85+15 by weight, and the total amount supported was about 600 g/J. In this example, the wave height was 2 mm and the pitch was 3I. The conventional product used for comparison was in the form of a flat plate, similar to the first experimental example. Further, the size of the catalyst used was 63 mm in diameter in all cases. An experiment was conducted under the above conditions and according to the following procedure. First, a mixed catalyst of titanium oxide and tungsten oxide was placed on a stainless steel stand 27 shown in FIG. do. An IOW germicidal lamp is used as the ultraviolet lamp 23, and the ultraviolet intensity at a wavelength of 250 nm is 1. .. It was 6beW/cJ. Acetaldehyde saturated gas is injected into the reactor 22 from the sampling chamber 24 and stirred with a fan 25 to make the concentration uniform, and the peak area of the gas chromatograph is 10,000.
The average decomposition rate per minute for 30 minutes from the moment when the acetaldehyde concentration showed 0 (corresponding to 70 ppm in acetaldehyde concentration) was defined as the decomposition performance of the catalyst. Next, the hydrogen sulfide decomposition performance of the titanium oxide catalyst was measured. In this case, a 100W germicidal lamp was used as the ultraviolet lamp 23, and the catalyst 26 was placed at a distance of 1001 from the ultraviolet lamp 23. At this time, the intensity of ultraviolet rays at a wavelength of 250 nm was 17 mW/cnf. The initial concentration of hydrogen sulfide was adjusted to be slightly higher than 70 ppm, and the decomposition performance was determined using gas chromatography in the same manner as in the case of acetialdehyde. The decomposition performance of hydrogen sulfide is 30% from the moment the concentration shows 70ppm.
The decomposition rate was expressed as the average decomposition rate per minute.

この結果を第2表に示す。The results are shown in Table 2.
