공기중이나 UV 등의 광원에 비교적 안정적인 염료 Rhodamine B는 UV 조사아래 광촉매인 $TiO_2$의 첨가로 그 분해가 가능하였다. 유동층 반응기에 적합하도록 자체 제조된 광촉매 입자, Photomedia도 우수한 효율로 염료의 분해가 가능함을 보여주었다.

The performance of fluidized-bed reactor with Photomedia, immobilized TiO$_2$ onto the porous ceramic ball using a sol-gel method has been studied in this work. A simple model substrate, dilute Rhodamine B (RhB), was decolorized at room temperature. For the purpose of comparison, the slurry reactor and the Inner Wall Coated Reactor (IWCR) were used. The aim of this work was to develop the photocatalytic fluidized bed reactor (PFBR) through contrasting the photodegradability of various reactors such as the TiO$_2$slurry reactor, the inner-wall coated reactor (IWCR). In this study, the RhB was decolorized in three types of reactor. Even though the reaction rate constant of PFBR was lower than that of slurry reactor, PFBR had the advantages of preventing the wash-out of photocatalyst, so it can be operated continuously.
