Description of the invention: [Technical field to which the invention belongs] The present invention relates to a technology for capturing harmful gases such as odors and detoxifying them, especially a technology for detoxifying using a photocatalyst. [Prior art] When a photocatalyst typified by titanium oxide is irradiated with light having an energy equal to or higher than a bandgap held by the photocatalyst, holes and electrons are generated inside the photocatalyst ®. The holes and electrons generated in this manner diffuse on the surface of the photocatalyst, and react with substances adsorbed on the surface of the photocatalyst and substances existing near the surface of the photocatalyst. Many air purification devices and the like utilizing the properties of such photocatalysts have been manufactured, and many patent applications have been filed. Among the photocatalysts, titanium oxide is still the most used because of its oxidizing strength and excellent chemical stability. When the titanium oxide photocatalyst absorbs light having a wavelength of about 400 nanometers (nm) or less, it can perform the photocatalyst reaction as described above. Fig. 3 is a plan view of an air cleaner using ozone and a photocatalyst together. As shown in Fig. 3, the air cleaner is provided with a filter unit 31, an ozone generating unit 32, a photocatalyst device 33, and an active unit in order from the upstream to the downstream of the flow path of the air to be treated fluid. Carbon section 34. The photocatalyst device 33 includes a housing member forming a flow path of the air, a photocatalyst filter provided with a photocatalyst functional layer on a substrate provided inside the housing member and having a plurality of voids, and ultraviolet irradiation for irradiating the photocatalyst filter. means. Then, the photocatalyst filter is configured so that the entire amount of the treated air can flow through the photocatalyst filter. 200539900 When the air introduced into the air cleaner passes through the housing member of the photocatalyst device 33, the photocatalyst filter 'activated by light irradiation by ultraviolet irradiation means decomposes the contained substances. In this way, the air can be discharged after being harmless (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). Fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectional view of an air cleaner including a deodorizing filter for an adsorbent containing at least one of activated carbon and zeolite and a photocatalyst. As shown in FIG. 4, the air cleaner has a cylindrical deodorizing filter 41 including a photocatalyst. An upstream side of the deodorizing filter 4 is provided with an excitation close to the deodorizing filter 41. The light source 42 is configured to rotate the deodorizing filter 4 i so that the irradiation position of the light from the excitation light source 42 can be changed. In this way, the gas decomposed on the entire deodorizing filter 41 can be processed. Therefore, since the regeneration rate of the deodorizing filter 41 can be increased, the excellent performance at the initial stage can be continued for a long period of time (for example, refer to Patent Document 2). [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-272824 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-263175 On the other hand, the photocatalyst reaction is performed only on the surface of the photocatalyst and near the surface of the stomach of the photocatalyst. Therefore, when the photocatalyst is used to decompose and purify harmful gases with extremely thin concentrations of ppm or ppb level, the process of diffusing harmful gases on the surface of the photocatalyst is likely to become a speed control step of the decomposition and purification reaction. In particular, when a harmful gas having a low adsorption to a photocatalyst is used as a target for decomposition and purification, there is a problem that the decomposition and purification rate becomes significantly slower. In this regard, in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, although the use with ozone is disclosed, the use with ozone does not necessarily increase the purification rate clearly. 200539900 Furthermore, in the above-mentioned Patent Document 2, the use of a photocatalyst and an adsorbent containing at least one of activated carbon and zeolite is described. However, even when such an adsorbent is used, the adsorbent cannot reach the saturation after adsorption. The harmful substance is adsorbed, so the purification effect becomes low, so the adsorbent must be replaced. This used adsorbent becomes a general waste or an industrial waste, so there is a problem of increasing waste. [Summary of the Invention] The object of the present invention is to provide a technique for decomposing hazardous substances with high #decomposition and removal efficiency, or a technique for decomposing hazardous substances with a reduced amount of waste. Generally, the concentration of odor-generating substances in living spaces ranges from ppb to several ppm. When it is intended to decompose such a thin concentration of gas, it is known that the decomposition rate of the gas is proportional to the concentration of the gas and becomes large. In addition, in the relationship between the light intensity and the decomposition rate, light intensity of several mW / cm2 range.degrees from a cold cathode lamp for black light or a photocatalyst is usually used. The stronger the light intensity, the higher the decomposition rate. From these things, the stronger the light intensity and the gas concentration, the higher the decomposition rate. Therefore, the harmful substance removal effect such as the deodorizing effect becomes stronger. Therefore, in a photocatalyst-coated ceramic filter or the like, a photocatalyst-carrying member, and a deodorizing device such as a deodorizing device composed of a light source, a gas containing harmful substances such as odor is disposed from the ceramic filter or the like. When the surface on the light source side carrying the photocatalyst member flows in, the gas containing harmful substances such as odor is in contact with the surface of the photocatalyst member through the ceramic filter or the like having the highest light intensity at the highest gas concentration. The reaction efficiency can be improved. 200539900 In addition, not all of the light irradiated on the photocatalyst is absorbed into the photocatalyst and contributes to the reaction. Some or most of the light is reflected on the photocatalyst layer and leaks to the outside. The light that is leaked to the outside cannot contribute to the deodorization reaction, so only this portion becomes a waste of energy. In order to minimize such a waste of energy, it is necessary to adopt a structure that makes it difficult for light from a light source to leak to the outside. In one method, for example, a method in which a light source is disposed between two ceramic filters or the like supporting a photocatalyst member. In this way, when a light source is arranged between two ceramic filter-carrying photocatalyst members, the light reflected on one ceramic filter-carrying photocatalyst member enters another ceramic filter-carrying photocatalyst. Since the photocatalyst reaction performed on the photocatalyst coated on the surface can be used on the member, the utilization efficiency of light can be improved. Specifically, by using a method in which the photocatalyst-coated member is disposed between the surfaces so that the light irradiated on the surface is reflected on the other surface, and the light is irradiated onto the surface from a light source provided in a region surrounding the surfaces. Photocatalyst, and the method of decomposing the harmful substance by the photocatalyst, so that the light irradiated on the surface of the member coated with the photocatalyst can participate in the photocatalyst reaction, or-even when it is reflected, it can be irradiated to another coating The surface of the photocatalyst member can improve the utilization efficiency of light energy. In addition, by using a method of dissolving a harmful substance, the surfaces of the members coated with the photocatalyst are arranged to face each other, and a light source provided between the surfaces is irradiated with light to the photocatalyst to decompose the harmful substance, thereby irradiating the coating. The light on the surface of the photocatalyst member can participate in the photocatalyst reaction, or even when it is reflected, it can be irradiated on the surface of another photocatalyst-coated member, so the utilization efficiency of light energy can be improved. 200539900 And 'utilization: a light source is provided inside the cylindrical member coated with a photocatalyst, and the light is irradiated onto the photocatalyst from the light source, and the photocatalyst-coated member is irradiated with the photocatalyst-degrading method of the harmful substance by the photocatalyst. The light on the surface can participate in the photocatalyst reaction, or even when it is reflected, it can be irradiated on the surface of another photocatalyst-coated member, so the utilization efficiency of light energy can be improved. In addition, the use of photocatalyst-coated members or cylindrical members is a method of decomposing hazardous substances ® that are filter-like or porous and that can pass other gases, allowing harmful substances to pass through the filter or porous Components that allow other gases to pass through are decomposed and removed. In addition, when a porous material is used, the surface area of the member becomes large, and therefore, the amount of the photocatalyst is also increased, so that decomposition and removal of harmful substances are also increased. In addition, any material other than a filter-like or porous member is applicable as long as it can pass harmful substances. In addition, the gas containing a harmful substance is first passed through the above-mentioned photocatalyst-coated member or the cylindrical member with the highest intensity of light irradiation, and the gas introduced into the photocatalyst-coated member or the cylindrical member is harmful to β. Substance decomposition method can effectively decompose and remove harmful substances. In addition, the use of the photocatalyst-coated member or the cylindrical member is a method for decomposing harmful substances in ceramics. By washing the photocatalyst-coated member or the cylindrical member with water, performance can be restored and the amount of waste can be reduced. . In addition, by the above-mentioned method for decomposing harmful substances, a harmful substance decomposing device capable of decomposing harmful substances can be realized. In addition, the harmful substance decomposition device utilizes a 200539900 harmful substance decomposition device provided with a rectifier plate on a gas flow path in the above-mentioned harmful substance decomposition device to increase the resistance of gas circulation, even when the gas flow rate is small. Since the gas can flow through the entire member coated with the photocatalyst, the contact efficiency between the harmful substance and the photocatalyst is improved, and the decomposition and removal efficiency of the harmful substance can be improved. [Embodiment] Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. . (First Embodiment) • The first figure is a diagram showing the configuration of a deodorizing device used in the first embodiment. In Fig. 1, (a) is a sectional configuration diagram of the deodorizing device, and (b) is a side configuration diagram of the deodorizing device. This deodorizing device is a combination of a ceramic filter for energizing a photocatalyst and a light source that reacts with the photocatalyst, and the light source is disposed between two ceramic filters that can efficiently use light from the light source. In addition, the odor-containing gas first passes through the ceramic. The filter has the highest intensity of light irradiation. The gas is introduced between two ceramic filters and then passes through the ceramic filter. ^ A specific deodorizing device includes: a suction port 1 provided at a lower portion of the deodorizing device to introduce gas, a fan 2 provided at an upper portion of the suction port 1 and driving force for gas introduction, and 2 inside the deodorizing device A plurality of lamps 3 arranged in parallel in the longitudinal direction and used as a light source, two ceramic filters 4, 5 holding the lamp 3 and oppositely arranged, side chambers 6, 7, adjacent to the ceramic filters 4, 5, and The side chambers 6, 7 are connected to the side chambers 8, 9 for introducing gas to the exhaust port, and the side chambers 8, 9 are connected to the exhaust port 10, 11 for exhausting the gas. In this deodorizing device, when the fan 2 is driven, an air -10- 200539900 body can be introduced from the air inlet 1 to reach the central portion of the deodorizing device provided with the lamp 3 as a light source. Then, the ceramic filters 4 and 5 passing through the two lateral sides of the lamp 3 are passed. During this passage, the photocatalyst irradiated with light from the surfaces of the ceramic filters 4, 5 is in contact with the gas, and the odorous component gas in the gas is decomposed. The gas that has been decomposed by the ceramic filters 4 and 5 passes through the side chambers 6 and 7 to the side chambers 8 and 9 and is exhausted from the exhaust ports 10 and 11. In this way, when the gas is passed from the lamp 3 toward the ceramic filters 4, 5, the gas with the highest concentration of odorous components passes through the strongest light irradiation portion of the ceramic filter 4, 5, and thus can be efficiently Decompose and remove harmful substances. In addition, when the light source is arranged between two ceramic filters 4, 5, one ceramic filter is irradiated, and the reflected light is irradiated to the other ceramic filter, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of light energy. In addition, as long as the lamp 3 as a light source can irradiate the ceramic filter with uniform light, it is not necessary to be arranged in parallel in the vertical direction, and it is not necessary to have a plurality of, or one. In addition, although the photocatalyst applied to the ceramic filter is made of titanium oxide, ^ it can also be used: zinc oxide, hafnium titanate, barium titanate, or a suitable combination of these photocatalysts, etc., and have photocatalyst function . In addition, the ceramic filter is not limited to two pieces, and as long as the positional relationship allows the irradiated light to be reflected on another ceramic filter, it may be any number. Alternatively, the lamp 3 of the light source may be provided inside a cylindrical ceramic filter such as a cylindrical one. (Second Embodiment) Fig. 2 is a diagram showing the structure of a deodorizing device used in the second embodiment. In Fig. 2, '(a) is a sectional configuration view of the deodorizing device, and (b) is a lateral configuration view of the deodorizing device. This deodorizing device is a deodorizing device according to the first embodiment described above, in which a plurality of rectifying plates 12 are mounted in the side chambers 6, 7 so as to be vertical to a gas moving upward. When the rectifying plate 12 is mounted, the resistance of the gas flow is increased, and the gas can be evenly flowed into the side chambers 6, 7 when the gas flow rate is small. By this action, the gas can flow through the entire ceramic filters 4, 5 and the contact efficiency of the odor gas Φ gas with the photocatalyst can be increased, thereby improving the deodorizing effect. In addition, the rectifying plate 12 need not be vertical to the gas moving upward as long as the above effect can be obtained, and one of each of the side chambers 6 and 7 may be used.
