研究目的
Developing an efficient photocatalyst for the synthesis of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) from water and oxygen under visible-light irradiation, aiming to overcome the problems of insufficient H2O2 productivity and solar-to-chemical energy conversion efficiency.
研究成果
The HTNT-CD catalyst demonstrated high efficiency for photocatalytic H2O2 synthesis, with significant improvements in productivity and solar-to-chemical energy conversion efficiency. The acidic protons on HTNT-CD played a crucial role in accelerating the oxygen reduction reaction and stabilizing H2O2, offering a promising approach for sustainable H2O2 production.
研究不足
The study highlights the need for further optimization to enhance H2O2 productivity and stability under continuous operation. Potential areas for improvement include the leaching of carbon species and the optimization of reaction conditions.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection
The study employed a hybrid catalyst of proton-form titania nanotube with carbon dot (HTNT-CD) for photocatalytic synthesis of H2O2. The methodology included hydrothermal synthesis for catalyst preparation and photocatalytic reactions under controlled irradiation conditions.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources
Samples included HTNT-CD, P25-CD, NaTNT-CD, and TNT-CD, synthesized from commercial P25, NaTNT, and TNT as carriers. Data on H2O2 production were collected under various irradiation conditions.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials
Equipment included a 350 W Xenon lamp for irradiation, quartz reactor for photocatalytic reactions, and spectroradiometer for light intensity measurement. Materials included citric acid, TiO2 (P25), and various chemicals for catalyst synthesis and analysis.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow
The synthesis of HTNT-CD involved hydrothermal treatment of TiO2 with NaOH, followed by ion-exchange with HNO3. Photocatalytic reactions were conducted in a quartz reactor under UV or visible light irradiation, with H2O2 quantified by redox titration.
5：Data Analysis Methods
H2O2 amounts were determined by redox titration using standard Ce(SO4)2·4H2O solution. Apparent quantum yield (AQY) was calculated to estimate catalytic efficacy under controllable irradiation.
