Abstract

The invention provides a photosynthesis and (photo-catalysis) electro-catalysis combination system separated type hydrogen production method through water splitting. According to the method, water isoxidized to release oxygen through microalgae photo-system II enzymes based on solar photosynthesis, an additional chemical electron carrier is reduced, and the carrier storing electrons and an electrolyte solution of protons are stored and transported to a (photo-catalysis) electro-catalysis system for generating hydrogen. In a (photo-catalysis) electro-catalysis pool, the electron carrier is subjected to oxidizing reaction on an anode to release electrons, a cathode is combined with the protons to generate hydrogen, and after the hydrogen is collected, the electrolyte solution is returned tothe photosynthesis system to be recycled. Through the method, the biological water oxidation reaction and the electrochemistry proton reduction reaction are designed into relatively independent systems, hydrogen and oxygen are produced through separation in the space, the hydrogen and oxygen separation problem is solved, and solar energy and electric energy are comprehensively utilized by combining biological photosynthesis with the manual photo-electro-chemistry process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of photochemical conversion of solar energy to produce solar fuel, and in particular relates to a method for producing hydrogen by splitting water in a photosynthesis-(photo)electrocatalysis combined system. Background technique [0002] With the increasing development of human society, the energy crisis and environmental problems brought about by the consumption of traditional fossil fuels seriously threaten the sustainable development of human beings, and the development of clean and renewable energy is imminent. Among many clean energy forms, solar energy has the advantages of being inexhaustible, clean and pollution-free, and widely distributed. Converting it into a clean fuel that can be stored and transported will be one of the ways to utilize solar energy. As another form of clean energy, hydrogen energy has the advantages of high combustion calorific value and zero emissions. Therefore, the producti...
