Generally, the strategies for the development of visible-light-active photocatalysts are mainly focused on enhancing degradation efficiency (in the case of environmental remediation) or increasing selectivity toward the desired product (in the case of organic synthesis). These goals can be achieved by doping the semiconductor lattice with metal and/or non-metal elements in order to reduce band gap energy, thereby providing the semiconductor with the ability to absorb light at a wavelength higher than the UV range. Other interesting options are the formulation of different types of heterojunctions (to increase visible absorption properties and to reduce the recombination rate of charge carriers) and the development of innovative catalytic materials with semiconducting properties. This reprint is focused on visible-light-active photocatalysts for environmental remediation and organic synthesis, featuring the state of the art as well as advances in this field.Technology: general issuesbicsscHistory of engineering & technologybicsscMaterials sciencebicsscTiO2activated carbonnanohybridphotodegradationazo dyessunlightphotocatalysisvisible lightbiomasswastegreen chemistrynanocatalysisnitrobenzeneAg/Cu2Opersulfatesulfate radicalheterostructurediamond nanocrystalsbacterial photoinactivationsillenite Bi12NiO19Rietveld methodoptical propertiesBB41 dyeelectrospinningcarbon composite nanofiberswater pollutionAg3PO4photocatalystC3N4MoS2compositephotocatalytic oxidationCr(VI) reductioncobaltdecolorizationRemazol BlacksulfurhydrophosphinationzirconiumphosphinesTiO2 thin filmoxygen and argon gas flow ratesacetaminophenphotocatalytic activityresponse surface methodBox-Behnken designTechnology: general issuesHistory of engineering & technologyMaterials scienceVaiano Vincenzoedt500487Vaiano VincenzoothBOOK9910566469703321Visible Light Active Photocatalysts for Environmental Remediation and Organic Synthesis3023573UNINA
