Request a sales quoteBiOX-based Photocatalysts for Dual Applications: Water Treatment and Energy Storage presents opportunities for finding balance between the progress in semiconductor materials and their seminal applications in cutting-edge areas of water treatment and energy storage, which mitigate environmental impact. This book provides an understanding of BiOX with respect to the relationship between materials’ structure and photoreaction performance, paving the way for a new direction of photocatalysis technology for the future of water treatment. Subsequently, the development of the next generation of BiOX would allow an efficient collection of sunlight to catalyze chemical reactions, promoting solar energy utilization as the cleanest and most sustainable energy source in the long-term. To reflect this novelty, the works presented in this book focuses on BiOX applications not only for water treatment, but also for energy storage and conversion.
Written by world-class experts in their respective fields, this book will be an excellent resource for postgraduate students and postdoctoral researchers and academics in chemical engineering, chemistry, physics, and environmental science doing research on advanced oxidation process (AOP); technicians working in research and development on different uses of BiOX-based material for photocatalytic applications; and waste specialists in the waste and energy industries.
- Features an extensive literature survey on energy production and storage, wastewater, and environmental cleaning based on laboratory studies in the body of knowledge
- Provides a comprehensive overview on fundamentals and applications of a wide range of emerging photocatalytic materials such as BiOX
- Covers insights about technological benefits, challenges, research direction, outlook, and perspectives of BiOX-based photocatalysts
