Abstract
Here, we report monodispersed tricomponent MnNSs-SnO2@Pt and MnNFs-SnO2@Pt nanocomposites prepared by simultaneous SnO2 and Pt nanodot coating on Mn nanospheres (MnNSs) and Mn nanoflowers (MnNFs) for highly efficient CO2 photoreduction in visible-NIR-sunlight irradiation. MnNFs-SnO2@Pt showed higher efficiency with a quantum yield of 3.21% and a chemical yield of 5.45% for CO2 conversion under visible light irradiation for HCOOH formation with 94% selectivity. Similarly, MnNFs-SnO2@Pt displayed significant photocatalytic efficiency in NIR and sunlight irradiation for HCOOH yield. MnNFs-SnO2@Pt nanocomposites also showed robust morphology and sustained structural stability with shelf-life for at least 1 year and were utilized for at least 10 reaction cycles without losing significant photocatalytic efficiency. The high surface area (94.98 m2/g), efficient electron-hole separation, and Pt-nanodot support in MnNFs--SnO2@Pt contributed to a higher photocatalytic efficacy toward CO2 reduction.

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY OF ADVANCED MATERIALS 2022; 23:866-894. [PMID: 36506822 PMCID: PMC9733696 DOI: 10.1080/14686996.2022.2149036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2022] [Revised: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 11/13/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
At present, CO2 photoreduction to value-added chemicals/fuels and photocatalytic hydrogen generation by water splitting are the most promising reactions to fix two main issues simultaneously, rising CO2 levels and never-lasting energy demand. CO2, a major contributor to greenhouse gases (GHGs) with about 65% of the total emission, is known to cause adverse effects like global temperature change, ocean acidification, greenhouse effects, etc. The idea of CO2 capture and its conversion to hydrocarbons can control the further rise of CO2 levels and help in producing alternative fuels that have several further applications. On the other hand, hydrogen being a zero-emission fuel is considered as a clean and sustainable form of energy that holds great promise for various industrial applications. The current review focuses on the discussion of the recent progress made in designing efficient photocatalytic materials for CO2 photoreduction and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The scope of the current study is limited to the TiO2 and non-TiO2 based advanced nanomaterials (i.e. metal chalcogenides, MOFs, carbon nitrides, single-atom catalysts, and low-dimensional nanomaterials). In detail, the influence of important factors that affect the performance of these photocatalysts towards CO2 photoreduction and HER is reviewed. Special attention is also given in this review to provide a brief account of CO2 adsorption modes on the catalyst surface and its subsequent reduction pathways/product selectivity. Finally, the review is concluded with additional outlooks regarding upcoming research on promising nanomaterials and reactor design strategies for increasing the efficiency of the photoreactions.
