Article Synopsis
- - This study investigates how to produce methane by reducing carbon dioxide using a combination of materials called Pt-doped CdS/TiO heterostructures, which involve the addition of platinum to enhance their properties.
- - The photocatalysts were created by combining P25 commercial titania and CdS made through a special method, followed by adding platinum to boost efficiency, and various characterization techniques confirmed their successful synthesis.
- - The results indicated that the Pt-doped heterostructures were more effective in producing methane compared to pure titania, with methane production rates of 460 µmol CH/g·h versus 397 µmol CH/g·h, highlighting the importance of the components in reducing electron-hole recombination and enhancing
