Photodegradation is crucial in catalysis for several reasons:
- Environmental Impact: It offers a green and sustainable method for degrading pollutants without the need for harsh chemicals. - Energy Efficiency: The process can be powered by sunlight, making it an energy-efficient solution for pollution control. - Versatility: Photodegradation can be applied to a wide range of pollutants, including organic compounds, heavy metals, and even microorganisms.
