The quest for carbon neutrality has become a major component of global climate governance, with significant efforts on heterogeneous photocatalysis using carbon-based nanomaterials. This review highlights the state-of-the-art of such materials in emerging photocatalytic applications.
The quest for carbon neutrality has become a major component of global climate governance. Significant efforts are focusing on alternative energy technologies to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels. Heterogeneous photocatalysis is con-sidered promising as a green and sustainable technology to address important energy and environmental challenges. Due to their low cost and unique elec-tronic and optical properties, carbon materials (including graphene, carbon nanotubes, carbon quantum dots, and carbon nitride) have been studied exten-sively as photocatalysts. In this review, we highlight the state-of-the-art of carbon-based nanomaterials used in emerging photocatalytic applications such as the CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR), N2 fixation reaction (NFR), and organic synthesis reaction (OSR).
