Nano-photocatalysts for Environmental Applications
- Submission status
- Closed
Environmental Pollution and Energy Crisis are two major problems of the world that are being faced by the global population. In this regard, various scientific organizations and industrial R&Ds have been working 24 x 7 to have a potential solution of the same. After many years of rigorous research and thousands of publications, nano-photocatalysis remains a promising tool for a wide range of environmental applications. This primarily includes water/air purification, self-cleaning effect, water splitting and hydrogen production, carbon dioxide reduction and fixation, disinfection processes, and valuable chemical production, etc. However, the current status of nano-photocatalysis faces various new perspectives and challenges such as cost-effective synthesis of photocatalyst, solar energy coverage, eco-toxicity, recyclability and reusability potential, large scale applicability, theoretical and economic aspects of the process, etc.
