2. Photocatalytic generation of hydrogen from cellulose
University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologiAbstract : Uncontrolled emission of greenhouse gases caused by consumption of fossil fuels has led to the urgent need to develop low-emitting energy technologies such as those exploiting renewable energies. In this context, hydrogen (H2) represents an opportunity to enhance the development of such technologies, in light of the possibility to use it as an energy storage for non-programmable renewables, and for its potential to decarbonize key emitting sectors such as transport sector.

4. Photoredox catalysis enabled C–O bond activation: Access to unnatural amino acids
University essay from KTH/KemiAbstract : Fotoredoxkatalys tillhandahåller möjligheter att utveckla nya hållbara kemiska reaktionsvägar. När fotokatalysatorn bestrålas med synligt ljus möjliggörs elektronöverföring till eller från substratet som i sin tur medför alstring av reaktiva fria radikaler. READ MORE

5. Photocatalytic Degradation of Organic Substances in Salt Water
University essay from KTH/KemiteknikAbstract : The purpose of this research was to investigate the kinetics and mechanisms of the photocatalytic degradation of organic substances in the presence of anions (bromide and chloride), using titanium dioxide as a photocatalyst. Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris) and methanol were the organic substances used as probes. READ MORE
