Full Description

Renewable Photocatalysts: Technologies, Applications, Economics, Environmental Analysis, and a Sustainable Future offers an innovative and broad approach to photocatalysts, integrating design, materials, methods, applications, economics, and sustainable development. The book begins by introducing solar energy and catalysis, before delving into cutting-edge photocatalyst technologies and applications. The third section focuses on regulations, economics, and commercialization, before the final chapters provide further in-depth coverage of environmental considerations, life cycle, and applications. The lens of sustainable development is applied throughout the book, with a view to developing renewable photocatalysts that support the reduction of CO2 emissions, net zero goals, and sustainable development. This is a valuable resource for researchers, students, faculty, engineers, R&D, scientists, and policy makers, with an interest in solar energy, photocatalysts, and sustainable development.
