978-0-12-823989-6 (ISBN)
This book presents the fundamentals and the applications of photoelectrocatalysis, such as hydrogen production from water splitting, the remediation of harmful compounds, and CO2 reduction. Photoelectrocatalytic reactors and light sources, in addition to kinetic aspects, are presented along with an exploration of the relationship between photocatalysis and electrocatalysis. In addition, photocorrosion issues and the application of selective photoelectrocatalytic organic transformations, which is now a growing field of research, are also reported. Finally, the advantages/disadvantages and future perspectives of photoelectrocatalysis are highlighted through the possibility of working at a pilot/industrial scale in environmentally friendly conditions.
Leonardo Palmisano was born in Termini Imerese, Italy, in 1950. He obtained his B.Sc. degree in Chemistry cum laude in 1973 from the University of Palermo. He was a full professor of Chemistry in the Department of Engineering, University of Palermo, since 2000, and although he has now retired, he continues to carry out research. His scientific work mainly focuses on heterogeneous photocatalysis, such as preparation, characterization of many bulk and surface techniques, and testing of various types of bare and doped polycrystalline photocatalysts. He has collaborated with many scientists worldwide, producing joint papers in international journals (~350), many scientific and didactical books, and five patents. He is editorin- chief of the Journal of Photocatalysis and a member of the editorial boards of European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Current Organic Chemistry, International Journal of Photoenergy, Journal of Chemistry, and Journal of Membrane Science & Technology. Sedat Yurdakal was born in Birecik, Turkey, in 1977. He received his B.S.c. degree in Chemistry in 2000 from Anadolu University, Turkey. He performed his PhD degree thesis work at the University of Palermo, Italy, and Anadolu University from 2003 to 2010. He works as a full professor at Afyon Kocatepe University. He has published many papers in prestigious journals (>60), a patent, books (and book chapters) in different areas of heterogeneous photocatalysis, such as green photocatalytic and photoelectrocatalytic oxidations, remediation of harmful compounds, thin films, photocatalytic reactor applications, photoadsorption determination, and preparation of new materials containing TiO2. He is associate editor of the Journal of Photocatalysis and academic editor of the Journal of Chemistry. He has also been coeditor of special issues of Catalysis Today
