| Opplysninger | Photosynthesis to solar fuels : an introduction -- Devices for solar driven water splitting to H₂ fuel and their technical and economic assessments -- Material selection for photo-electrochemical or photo-catalytic processes -- Hetero-structured photocatalysts for solar hydrogen generation -- Thermochemical hydrogen generation -- Solar bio-hydrogen production : an overview -- Photocatalytic CO₂ reduction to fuels.. - "As the search for renewable sources of energy grows more urgent, more and more attention is focusing on the blueprint offered by biological photosynthesis for translating the energy of our Sun into energy rich molecules like H₂ and carbohydrates, commonly known as "solar fuels." These solar fuels have enormous potential to store high densities of energy in the form of chemical bonds as well as being transportable. This book offers a complete overview of the promising approaches to solar fuel generation, including the direct pathways of solar H₂ generation and CO₂ photocatalytic reduction. Solar Fuel Generation is an invaluable tool for graduate students and researchers (especially chemists, physicists, and material scientists) working in this field"--
