The hydrogen production from methanol/water decomposition in a liquid photo-system using In-P/TiO2
Introduction Hydrogen is considered as an ideal fuel for the nearly future. Alternatively, photocatalytic water-splitting using TiO2 for hydrogen production offers a promising way for clean, low-cost and environmentally friendly production of hydrogen by solar energy. The technology for generating hydrogen by the splitting of water using a photocatalyst has attracted much attention. In this study, we evaluated a new material, In-P/TiO2, to reduce the large band gap of pure TiO2. To investigate the structural effect of the catalyst on photocatalysts, prepared photocatalysts with anatase and rutile structure were prepared using thermal treatment at 500 and 800℃. These were then used to produce hydrogen gas via methanol photodecomposition 1. To determine the relationship between In, P species and catalytic performance for H2 production, the In-TiO2, P-TiO2 photocatalysts were examined using X-ray diffraction, Photoluminescence, X-ray photon spectroscopy, UV-Visible spectroscopy.
