Abstract

The invention discloses a high-efficiency heterojunction photocatalyst for photocatalytic water splitting to produce hydrogen and alcohol oxidation, and belongs to the field of photocatalyst preparation and application. The invention uses nickel sulfate hexahydrate, sodium selenite and titanium dioxide as reactants, and ethylene glycol as a solvent and reducing agent to synthesize NiSe / TiO through a one-step solvothermal method. 2 Heterojunction photocatalyst. The heterojunction photocatalyst prepared by the invention has the same characteristics as simple TiO 2 It has 9 times higher hydrogen production performance by photolytic water splitting and shows good stability in long-term cycle operation. At the same time, simple alcohols are used as sacrificial agents and under simulated sunlight, photocatalytic water splitting is achieved to prepare high-value products. fuel (hydrogen) and chemicals such as small-molecule acids and aldehydes. In addition, the heterojunction photocatalyst used in the present invention has a green and simple preparation method, abundant material sources, low price, and stable activity. In combination with the use of small-molecule alcohol as a sacrificial agent, the economic benefits of photocatalysis and the absorbed light can be greatly improved. energy utilization.
