Scope

Photocatalyst is one of the most important environmental materials, and investigations of photocatalyst for water splitting, environmental purification, CO2 reduction, and surface wettability control are widely conducted in academia and industry of Asia. In this session, we would like to cultivate understanding of current situation and prospective challenge of this environmental material through the discussion on various studies such as processing, application and mechanism analysis. This session is not merely for TiO2 but open to all materials with photocatalytic performances.

Topics

  1. Photocatalyst
  2. Environmental Purification
  3. Energy Conversion
  4. H2 Generation
  5. Wettability Conversion
