CO 2 Photoreduction Under Visible Light by TiO 2 and Carbon Dots Derived from Pyrolized Bio‐Oil

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Herein, we report a study on pyrolysis bio‐oil upgrading from leather shaving waste to dope in situ titania (TiO 2 ) with carbon dots (cds). The cds doped TiO 2 exhibits remarkable activity as photocatalyst under solar light for the direct conversion of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and water vapor (H 2 O) to methane (CH 4 ). Morover, the catalytic activity also increased under uv radiation.
