The invention discloses a method for reducing carbon dioxide through photocatalysis. The method is characterized in that carbon dioxide is taken as a raw material, a TiO2 / Ti3C2 photocatalytic membrane is taken as a catalyst, and the carbon dioxide is subjected to photocatalytic reduction to obtain carbon monoxide, methane, ethane and ethylene. The TiO2 / Ti3C2 photocatalytic membrane has rich active sites and a narrow in-membrane channel, carbon dioxide can penetrate through the narrow in-membrane channel when photocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reaction is carried out, the contact probability of the carbon dioxide and a catalyst is increased, the photocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction efficiency can be improved, and a C-C coupling reaction can be promoted to obtain a C2 + product. The TiO2 / Ti3C2 photocatalytic membrane is used for photocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reaction, so that carbon monoxide and methane can be obtained, and C2 + products such as ethane and ethylene products can also be obtained. The method of the invention has the advantages that the preparation process of the TiO2 / Ti3C2 photocatalytic membrane is simple, the membrane can be formed independently, the type and size of channels in the membrane are adjustable, and C-C coupling reaction can be promoted to obtain C2 + products such as ethylene and ethane.
