Role of lamp type in conventional batch and micro-photoreactor for photocatalytic hydrogen production

The use of an irradiation source with a homogeneous distribution in the volume reaction mixture belongs to essential aspects heterogeneous photocatalysis. First, efficacy six lamps various radiation intensity and characteristics is contrasted. topic discussion photocatalytic hydrogen production from methanol-water solution presence NiO-TiO 2 photocatalyst. second section focused on potential micro-photoreactor system–the batch reactor micro-reactor circulating mixture, which takes place using TiO immobilized borosilicate glass. Continuous generation possible micro-photoreactor. This system produced 333.7 ± 21.1 µmol H (252.8 16.0 mmol.m −2 , formation per thin film area) reproducible manner during 168 h.
