Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage of this catalyst is that the catalyst has low stability and low activity, and because the catalytic activity is closely related to the ratio of multicomponent components, the requirements for material preparation are very high.
However, up to now, there has been no report on the direct use of it in photocatalysis to achieve the complete decomposition of water to produce hydrogen and oxygen without adding any auxiliary reagents.
[0009] It can be seen that it is particularly important to use semiconductor photocatalysis to fully split water to produce hydrogen and oxygen. However, the current photocatalyst systems that can fully split water are still limited, and most of them are complex multi-element nitrogen oxides and multi-element metal oxides. The preparation process is complex and subject to many constraints
A single metal oxide with a simpler structure has greater advantages, and there are no reports of such materials being directly used to achieve pure water splitting

Abstract

The invention provides a method for producing hydrogen and oxygen through solar photocatalysis decomposition of water based on a single metal oxide photocatalyst. An oxide supports a precious metal and transition metal oxide dual-component cocatalyst, so the water decomposition activity is obviously improved, the hydrogen production activity can reach above 24.0L / kg / h, the oxygen production activity can reach above 12.0L / kg / h, and the activity is not obviously reduced after the catalyst is recycled above six times. The method has the advantages of simple preparation process, high activity and stability, and nontoxic and green catalyst, can realize the decomposition of water by solar energy under ultraviolet light to form a clean fuel hydrogen, and allows the product water obtained after the combustion of hydrogen to be recycled, and the catalyst is expected to be used in energy supply of plateaus, outer space spacecrafts and lunar landing plans.
