Simultaneous hydrogen and peroxide production by photocatalytic water splitting

TiO2 as a Photocatalyst for Water Splitting—An Experimental and Theoretical Review

“…He et al showed this, using TiO 2 nanowire decorated with Pd NPs and achieving a photocurrent density of 1.4 mA/cm 2 [ 131 ]. The use of platinum within TiO 2 based photocatalysts is well known, and Lichao Wang et al showed that by creating a Pt/TiO 2 photocatalyst, an H 2 production rate of 7410 µmol/gh is achievable [ 132 ].…”

Red phosphorus decorated and doped TiO2 nanofibers for efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolution from pure water

“…Interestingly, instead of O2 evolution by water oxidation, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was produced by photogenerated holes via a two-electron process of water oxidation (Fig. S12) [51][52][53], which would benefit gas separation for hydrogen production via pure water splitting. As shown in Fig.…”

Synthesis of core-shell nanostructured Cr2O3/C@TiO2 for photocatalytic hydrogen production

“…Many scholars have reported improving the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 via heteroatom-doping [19], surface modification [20,21], the loading co-catalysts [22][23][24], and the formation of heterojunctions [25][26][27][28]. Among these methods, the transition-metal cation modification of TiO2 is an effective strategy for enhancing the visible light absorption ability and improving the photocatalytic properties of TiO2 [29,30].…”
