News Solar driven ammonia synthesis with Co-TiOx and Ag nanowires enhanced Cu2ZnSnS4 photocathodes Exploiting the full solar spectrum to generate renewable hydrogen from a waste biomass feedstock In this study recently published in Energy and Environmental Sciences, we established a ternary system (membrane-based waste biomass concentrator, a biomass preconditioning reactor, and a flow electrolysis cell). Meet Two Needs with One Deed: Unveiling the Secrets of Photoreforming In our latest article in Applied Catalysis B: Environmental, we explored the fascinating world of photoreforming, using the ZnxIn2S3+x catalyst which found to be a promising candidate for alcohol photoreforming, leveraging C-H activation and C-C coupling processes to transform furfuryl alcohol into hydrofuroin and clean H2. Unlocking the Power of Cu2O Facets: Decoding Their Influence on CO2 Conversion In this work recently published in Advanced Functional Materials, we answered controversy whether the initial Cu2O facets contribute to the selectivity in electrochemical concversion CO2RR Not all defects are bad - strategy for better photocatalyst ! Not all defects are bad! When Particles and Catalysis Research Laboratories started the research in photocatalysis many years ago we aimed for designing perfect crystals. We even used a phrase : “Kill the defects” as a strategy to make a good photocatalyst. Our recent publication recently published in Applied Catalysis B titled "Engineering defects in TiO2 for the simultaneous production of hydrogen and organic products" reveals defects can be beneficial. Honda-Fujishima Awards 2013 Congratulations to Dr Yun Hau Ng for the 9th Honda-Fujishima Prize by the Photoelectrochemistry Research Group of the Electrochemical Society of Japan. How to push the efficiency of CO2RR beyond the economic threshold for industrial commercialization ? In order to deliver the net zero carbon ambition, several attempts have been conducted, including pushing the efficiency of CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) beyond the economic threshold for industrial commercialization. Understanding the origin of hydrogen peroxide selectivity during ORR on heteroatom-doped carbon structures We are thrilled to share our work on constructing the turbostratic carbon with interfacial B-N moieties for electrosynthesis of HO2- that is now available in AngewandteChemie and it also confirmed that fine tuning the active moieties is pivotal for understanding the structure-selectivity relationship of ORR on electrocatalysts. Recent paper reveals how to improve carrier dynamics in carbon nitride for ethanol photoreforming Carbon nitride is cheap, scalable, non-toxic, suitable for solar hydrogen generation, but has limited activity due to severe charge recombination.
