Future Challenges of Photocatalytic Water Splitting: Sustainability
Abstract: Photocatalytic water splitting has emerged as a promising technology for sustainable hydrogen production through the direct utilization of solar energy. This process mimics natural photosynthesis, using semiconductor materials to absorb light and drive the decomposition of water into hydrogen and oxygen. The method provides a sustainable and eco-friendly solution to the global energy challenge by enabling the reduction of carbon emissions. Among various solar-to-chemical energy conversion approaches, photocatalytic water splitting …
