Abstract
The growing energy demands and rapid industrialization drove the attention towards a sustainable living. The methods to a adopt renewable source of energy has made the field of heterogeneous photocatalysis so famous. The photocatalytic hydrogen production seems to be an answer for our future energy crisis. In this regard, alkaline earth metal titanates with a perovskite structure are one of the in demand materials these days. Among these, strontium titanates (SrTiO3) play an important role and have shown a potential, especially in the field of hydrogen production. This review summarizes the significance of (SrTiO3) in photocatalytic water splitting, to produce hydrogen and the photocatalytic degradation of the pollutants from the waste water. Different synthesis methods used for preparing SrTiO3 are also discussed.

Abstract
The article presents the investigation results of the formation and synthesis of nanosized materials which were obtained at the Institute of Combustion Problems, many works have been brought to practical use. Investigations of low-temperature soot formation become the basis of nanomaterial synthesis methods, developed at the Institute for Combustion Problems since 1985. Flame can be considered as a chemical reactor to produce target products. The main feature of the processes based on technological combustion is that the target product is formed as a result of the combustion reaction, occurring spontaneously at high temperatures with a high speed without consuming external energy, i.e. due to its own heat. With the development of nanotechnology, new challenges have emerged in the synthesis of nanomaterials under combustion synthesis conditions. Below is a list of works on nanomaterials synthesis carried out at the Institute: complete scheme of soot formation; energy intensive nanocarbon materials; development and study of perovskite photocatalysts for hydrogen evolution; obtaining carbon fibers by the method of electrospinning; obtaining of biologically soluble membranes based on polymeric nanofibres and hydroxyapatite of calcium; synthesis of nanocarbon sorbents for purification of water from heavy metal ions.
