Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The challenges of climate change, fossil energy crisis, and environment protection have significantly affected our society worldwide. Carbon neutrality to control global warming and climate change has received an increasing amount of interest among governments and researchers worldwide. Sustainable photocatalysis in aid of solar energy is playing an important role in solving these problems. Catalytic CO2 conversion to clean fuels and chemicals with renewable energy is the reliable route to reduce atmospheric carbon. Additionally, photocatalytic pollutant removal is considered a potential route to keep the environment clean without increasing the carbon burden. Accordingly, in this Special Issue, breakthroughs and recent advances in CO2 conversion, and pollutant removal with photocatalytic processes will be included.
