Photocatalytic Systems by Design: Materials, Mechanisms and Applications

Photocatalytic Systems by Design: Materials, Mechanisms and Applications sheds light into the various aspects of photocatalysis such as the photocatalytic -phenomenon, -process, various applications, design of photocatalysts via band gap engineering and band edge position engineering for any specific or multiple photocatalytic applications such as pollutant degradations, hydrogen production, CO2 reduction into hydrocarbon fuels, antimicrobial disinfections, organic synthesis, N2 fixation, and so on under a single roof. This book has been designed in such way that to make any beginners from any levels with any background of science and technology to understand the concepts and applications of photocatalysis. Unlike the conventional books on photocatalysis, which expound the specific concept/material/application of photocatalysis, this book gives a 360° perspective into the field of photocatalysis and thereby it may serve as an ideal handbook for specific and any general audiences and we believe that it will be more informative for all the readers. Addresses all the concepts and applications of photocatalysisIncludes the fundamentals and mechanisms of photocatalytic materialsDescribes the various material-systems and engineering of photocatalystsGives insights into the various materials' schemes for photocatalysisDiscusses the application-specific design of photocatalysts INDICE: 1.
