What are Some Applications of Photogenerated Electrons in Catalysis?
Photogenerated electrons have a wide range of applications in catalysis, including:
Water Splitting: Photogenerated electrons can be used to reduce water to hydrogen, a clean fuel. Pollutant Degradation: Photocatalysts can degrade organic pollutants in water and air. CO2 Reduction: Conversion of CO2 to useful chemicals using photogenerated electrons. Organic Synthesis: Facilitate various organic transformations under mild conditions. Disinfection: Photocatalytic disinfection of bacteria and viruses in water and surfaces.
