| Research Abstract |
Firstly, a new measurement method for VOCs in air was developed. Secondary, the photo-catalytic decomposition technique for the gaseous pollutants was examined for the VOC containing alcohol compounds and the formation of aldehydes from those. The measurement method employs adsorbent tube and the collected VOCs can be determined by FID, which results in the determination of VOCs in a comprehensive manner as a toluene concentration. The best available adsorbent and air collection conditions were experimentally investigated. In the experiment using small scale photo-catalytic equipments, gas space velocity, temperature and co-existing hydrocarbons were found to be the major influential factors on the formation of aldehydes
