Photocatalytic lignin oils and CO2 upgradation to diesel precursors and H2/syngas production was achieved using electrostatic self-assembled CdSe QDs/B-SiO2 catalyst. The preparation of fuel precursors and H2 from lignin oils was efficiently realized with the noble metal free heterogeneous photocatalytic system in green solvent H2O (diesel precursors: 71-96%, H2: 6.0-7.3 mmol gcat-1). Furthermore, lignin oils and CO2 could be simultaneously transformed to diesel precursors and syngas with good to excellent yield (diesel precursors: 64%-87%, H2: 5.1-6.7 mmol gcat-1, CO: 5.2-5.6 mmol gcat-1). In the CdSe QDs/B-SiO2 system, the spherical SiO2 carrier facilitated the dispersion of CdSe QDs to provide more active sites. The enhancement of light absorption and utilization ability of CdSe QDs was achieved by the scattered light recycling in the near field of SiO2, thereby elevating the photocatalytic surface photoredox ability and enhancing the photocatalytic activity. The solvent-assisted light scattering ability enhancement further promoted the heterogeneous photocatalytic performance.
