Photoelectrocatalytic Reduction of CO2 into Chemicals Using Pt-Modified Reduced Graphene Oxide Combined with Pt-Modified TiO2 Nanotubes

Abstract: The photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) reduction of CO2 into high-value chemicals is beneficial in alleviating global warming and advancing a low-carbon economy. In this work, Pt-modified reduced graphene oxide (Pt-RGO) and Pt-modified TiO2 nanotubes (Pt-TNT) were combined as cathode and photoanode catalysts, respectively, to form a PEC reactor for converting CO2 into valuable chemicals. XRD, XPS, TEM, AFM, and SEM were employed to characterize the microstructures of the Pt-RGO and Pt-TNT catalysts. Reduction product… Show more

“…Similarly, in another system of PEC reduction of CO 2 into chemicals, Pt-rGO and Pt modified TiO 2 nanotubes (Pt-TNT) performed as cathode and photoanode catalysts, respectively. As a consequence, the separated Pt-rGO exhibited an outstanding activity for CO 2 reduction due to its enhanced adsorption capacity for CO 2 and suppressed oxidation of products [357]. Furthermore, a bifunctionalized TiO 2 film containing a dye-sensitized zone and a catalysis zone as cathode exhibited highly efficient conversion of CO 2 to formic acid, formaldehyde, and methanol through the electron transfer at the CB of TiO 2 under visible light [358].…”

“…Photoelectrocatalysis technique applied to CO 2 reduction has gained attention in the last years due to high conversion efficiency into high-value products [183][184][185][186][187][188][189]. The potential gradient applied simultaneously to the light activation of a semiconductor such as GaP, Si, CsTe, and InP decorated with Ag, Au, Cu, Pb, Pd, and Ni; carbon nanotubes modified with Pt and Fe; and TiO 2 NTs modified with Pt, CuO, CuO-Cu 2 O, and Cu/Cu 2 O has gained significant attention [183,185,[188][189][190][191][192][193][194], and the main results are summarized in Table 5.…”

CO 2 reduction by the photoelectrocatalysis technique produces mainly pure or oxygenated hydrocarbons with high energetic content [202], probably involving electron transfer to their respective acceptors [188].…”
