Problems solved by technology

However, photogenerated electrons and holes are easily recombined in the photocatalytic process, resulting in low photon quantum efficiencies for photocatalytic water splitting to produce hydrogen and photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants.
In order to further improve the photocatalytic efficiency, most researchers increase the degradation efficiency by applying voltage, but applying voltage will increase energy consumption
