The activity of plasmonic Au–TiO2 catalysts for solar hydrogen production from H2O/MeOH mixtures was found to depend strongly on the support phase (anatase, rutile, brookite, or composites thereof) as well specific structural properties caused by method Au deposition (sol-immobilization, photodeposition, deposition–precipitation). Structural and electronic rationale have been identified this behavior. Using a combination spectroscopic in situ techniques (EPR, XANES, UV–vis spectroscopy),...

Photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rates and structural properties as well charge separation, electron transfer, stabilization have been analyzed in advanced sol–gel-derived carbon nitrides (SG-CN) pyrolyzed at different temperatures (350–600 °C) bulk polymeric nitride reference samples (CN) by XRD, XPS, FTIR, UV–vis, Raman, photoluminescence situ EPR spectroscopy. SG-CN show about 20 times higher H2 production than CN. This is due to their porous structure, partial disorder, high surface...

Abstract Carbon dioxide can be used in various ways as a cheap C1 source. However, the utilization of CO 2 requires energy or energy‐rich reagents, which leads to further emissions, and therefore, diminishes ‐saving potential. Therefore, life cycle assessment (LCA) is required for each process that uses provide valid data savings. incorporated into epoxidized fatty acid esters corresponding carbonates.
