Solar Hydrogen Generation from Lignocellulose

Photocatalytic reforming of lignocellulosic biomass is an emerging approach to produce renewable H(2). This process combines photo‐oxidation of aqueous biomass with photocatalytic hydrogen evolution at ambient temperature and pressure. Biomass conversion is less energy demanding than water splitting...

Sumario:Photocatalytic reforming of lignocellulosic biomass is an emerging approach to produce renewable H(2). This process combines photo‐oxidation of aqueous biomass with photocatalytic hydrogen evolution at ambient temperature and pressure. Biomass conversion is less energy demanding than water splitting and generates high‐purity H(2) without O(2) production. Direct photoreforming of raw, unprocessed biomass has the potential to provide affordable and clean energy from locally sourced materials and waste.
