摘要
Photocatalytic water splitting using particulate semiconductor materials has been studied as a simple means of hydrogen production. However, there are still many obstacles to the development of complete, practical and renewable solar hydrogen production processes. This review discusses particulate photocatalyst systems intended for large-scale solar hydrogen production via water splitting, focusing on their current status and potential impact. The cost and efficiency targets for solar-to-fuel conversion on a practical scale are also reviewed, based on the maximum allowable cost of solar hydrogen production systems, which has been estimated to be US$102 m–2, at most. Particulate photocatalyst material design principles are discussed, using efficient oxide photocatalysts as examples. Approaches to constructing photocatalytic reactors extensible to large areas are also introduced. Finally, challenges related to the development of efficient and inexpensive photocatalyst systems and potentially useful analytical methods are outlined. Photocatalytic water splitting with particulate semiconductors represents a promising strategy for the generation of hydrogen as a solar fuel. This review covers recent advances in the development of reaction systems and photocatalysts towards the scale-up of this technology, emphasizing at the same time the challenges to overcome.
