Photocatalysis is a photoactivation process that transforms chemicals through the irradiation of semiconductor metal oxides (as catalysts). Photocatalysis is among the most favored treatments due to its environmental compatibility [197].

Photocatalysis promises a solution to challenges associated with the intermittent nature of sunlight which is considered as renewable and ultimate energy source to power activities on Earth. This review aims to provide a broad overview of the field.

2024年12月1日 · Photocatalysis stands as a powerful and versatile approach to addressing critical environmental and energy challenges. By harnessing the energy from light, photocatalytic processes enable the degradation of pollutants, conversion of …

Photocatalysis is the process or activity that occurs by the interaction of a light source to the surface of a material (i.e., semiconductor materials).

Photocatalysis is a type of artificial photosynthesis that uses environmentally friendly, long-lasting materials to address energy and environmental issues. There is currently a considerable demand for low-cost, high-performance wastewater treatment equipment.

2021年9月21日 · Photocatalysis can be defined as the change in the rate of a chemical reaction or the initiation of this reaction in the presence of a catalyst excited by radiation with suitable wavelengths.

2024年7月4日 · The utilization of light as a tool for the creation of chemical bonds under mild reaction conditions has emerged as a particularly pertinent area of investigation. Photocatalysis is a rapidly developing technology that exhibits a diverse range of potential applications.

2022年1月26日 · Photocatalysis offers a variety of mechanistically distinct strategies to generate radicals upon activation of relatively inert bonds within the substrates. Luca Capaldo, Davide Ravelli, and Maurizio Fagnoni discuss recent catalytic methods for radical C–H activation based on a direct hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) mechanism, which enables the ...

2021年10月29日 · This chapter is dedicated to a brief introduction on the basic and most fundamental aspects of photocatalysis including its characteristics and particularities.

2016年4月13日 · 1: What is a Photocatalyst? This chapter begins with the introduction of the essential factors for practical functional materials. TiO 2 has been mainly used as a pigment for a long time and is now highlighted and uniquely used as a practical photocatalyst. The manufacturing process and the history of TiO 2 developments are briefly reviewed.
