Recent advancements on the sustainable biochar based semiconducting materials for photocatalytic applications: A state of the art review

Palagiri Bhavani et al.

Summary: Researchers have highlighted the importance of renewable and sustainable energy production to address the increasing environmental pollution caused by non-renewable fossil fuels. Photocatalysis, converting abundant solar energy to solar fuels, has been proposed as an alternative solution. However, the low photocatalytic efficiency and high cost of existing catalysts have hindered commercialization. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop economically/eco-friendly, highly efficient, and robust catalysts. Introducing biochar as a support material in semiconductor-based catalysts can improve photocatalytic performance by addressing issues such as charge recombination, poor stability, and low conductivity. Recent research has demonstrated the potential of biochar-modified photocatalytic materials in applications such as hydrogen production, carbon dioxide photo-reduction, and water/air pollution treatment under solar light irradiation.
