Disclosed is a method of preparing high crystalline nanoporous titanium dioxide, in which the high crystalline nanoporous titanium dioxide, which is harmless to the human body and self-purified through the decomposition of organic matters, is prepared in mass production at the room temperature through a simply synthesis method. The method includes the steps of (a) mixing a titanium precursor and a surfactant in a solvent and performing a sol-gel reaction at a room temperature; (b) maturing a reactant obtained through the sol-gel reaction at the room temperature; (c) filtering the matured reactant and washing the matured reactant; and (d) drying the washed reactant to obtain titanium dioxide having nanopores.

Disclosed is a method of preparing high crystalline nanoporous titanium dioxide photocatalyst, capable of preparing the high crystalline nanoporous titanium dioxide photocatalyst in mass production through a simply synthesis method using an ultrasonification. The method includes the steps of (a) mixing a titanium precursor and a surfactant in a first solvent and performing a sol-gel reaction; (b) maturing a reactant obtained through the sol-gel reaction for 15 hours to 25 hours; (c) filtering the matured reactant and washing the matured reactant; (d) primarily drying the washed reactant at a temperature of 20&#xb0; C. to 50&#xb0; C. to obtain titanium sediments; (e) mixing the titanium sediments in a second solvent and performing an ultrasonification with respect to the mixed solution for 10 minutes to 120 minutes; and (f) secondarily drying the mixed solution, which has been subject to the ultrasonification, at a temperature of 15&#xb0; C. to 45&#xb0; C. to obtain titanium dioxide photocatalytic particles.
