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. 606 $aTechnology: general issues$2bicssc 606 $aHistory of engineering & technology$2bicssc 606 $aMaterials science$2bicssc 610 $aTiO2 610 $aactivated carbon 610 $ananohybrid 610 $aphotodegradation 610 $aazo dyes 610 $asunlight 610 $aphotocatalysis 610 $avisible light 610 $abiomass 610 $awaste 610 $agreen chemistry 610 $ananocatalysis 610 $anitrobenzene 610 $aAg/Cu2O 610 $apersulfate 610 $asulfate radical 610 $aheterostructure 610 $adiamond nanocrystals 610 $abacterial photoinactivation 610 $asillenite Bi12NiO19 610 $aRietveld method 610 $aoptical properties 610 $aBB41 dye 610 $aelectrospinning 610 $acarbon composite nanofibers 610 $awater pollution 610 $aAg3PO4 610 $aphotocatalyst 610 $aC3N4 610 $aMoS2 610 $acomposite 610 $aphotocatalytic oxidation 610 $aCr(VI) reduction 610 $acobalt 610 $adecolorization 610 $aRemazol Black 610 $asulfur 610 $ahydrophosphination 610 $azirconium 610 $aphosphines 610 $aTiO2 thin film 610 $aoxygen and argon gas flow rates 610 $aacetaminophen 610 $aphotocatalytic activity 610 $aresponse surface method 610 $aBox-Behnken design 615 7$aTechnology: general issues 615 7$aHistory of engineering & technology 615 7$aMaterials science 700 $aVaiano$b Vincenzo$4edt$0500487 702 $aVaiano$b Vincenzo$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910566469703321 996 $aVisible Light Active Photocatalysts for Environmental Remediation and Organic Synthesis$93023573 997 $aUNINA
