Progress In Solar Photocatalytic Hydrogen Production, Zhi Wu, Lan Sun, Chang-Jian Lin Oct 2019

Progress In Solar Photocatalytic Hydrogen Production, Zhi Wu, Lan Sun, Chang-Jian Lin

Journal of Electrochemistry

With the rapid development of human society and dramatically consumption of traditional energy, energy shortage and environmental pollution have become an important factor restricting the sustainable development of human society. At present, the development of clean and environmentally friendly renewable energy system has drawn much attention and becomes an important priority stratagem in the world. In many green and sustainable new energy projects, semiconductor-based photocatalytic hydrogen production technology which utilizes the available clean and renewable solar energy to prepare clean hydrogen energy is excepted to solve the crisis of energy shortage and environmental pollution, has become one of the most …


Preparation And Photocatalytic Properties Of Zno Nanorod Arrays On Ti Substrates, Jia-Ming Yang, Ling-Jun Han, Li-Ping Zhong, Zhen-Hai Liang Jun 2014

Preparation And Photocatalytic Properties Of Zno Nanorod Arrays On Ti Substrates, Jia-Ming Yang, Ling-Jun Han, Li-Ping Zhong, Zhen-Hai Liang

Journal of Electrochemistry

In this paper, the uniform ZnO nanorod arrays were prepared by galvanostatic electrodeposition on Ti Substrates. The morphology and structure of samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The effects of the concentration of Zn(NO3)2 and the deposition current on the morphology of the ZnO nanorod arrays were investigated. Photocatalytic properties of ZnO nanorod arrays were investigated by degradation of methyl orange (MO) under UV-light irradiation. The analysis revealed that the concentration of Zn(NO3)2 and the deposition current strongly influenced the morphology of the ZnO nanorod arrays. Compared with …


An Investigation Of Photocatalytic Degradation Reactions Of Pollutants By Combination Of (Photo)Electrochemical Measurements, Wen-Hua Leng, Hong-Qiao Zhu Oct 2013

An Investigation Of Photocatalytic Degradation Reactions Of Pollutants By Combination Of (Photo)Electrochemical Measurements, Wen-Hua Leng, Hong-Qiao Zhu

Journal of Electrochemistry

Semiconductor photocatalysis plays a critical role in the environment protection and future energy development. (Photo)electrochemical measurements are powerful tools for studying the kinetics and mechanism of photocatalytic reactions, since photo-carriers, as reactants of photocatalytic reactions, are involved in the interfacial transfer and recombination of semiconductor/electrolyte interface. This review describes the part of our recent results regarding aqueous photocatalytic decontamination obtained by these methods, and the focus of future work in this field is suggested.


Effect Of Fe~(3+) Dopen Of Titanium Dioxide Film On Absorption Spectra And Photo Catalysis, Mei-Qun Xiao, Jia-Nian Shen, Moucheng Li, Peng-Fei Wu, Dong Liu, Yu-Juan Zhang Nov 2004

Effect Of Fe~(3+) Dopen Of Titanium Dioxide Film On Absorption Spectra And Photo Catalysis, Mei-Qun Xiao, Jia-Nian Shen, Moucheng Li, Peng-Fei Wu, Dong Liu, Yu-Juan Zhang

Journal of Electrochemistry

Photo-catalytic titanium dioxide film in nano crystalline has been prepared by electrochemical oxidation process and adding different amount of ferric ion into the electrolyte during the anodic oxidation.The effects of Fe~(3+) dopen on absorption spectra and photo-catalytic of the titanium dioxide films have been studied. It shows that the Fe~(3+) dopen caused the red shife of the absorption edge for the incoming light and exhibited the improved photocatalytic reactivity.
