Pomegranate Peel Nanomaterials Give TiO₂ New Control Over CO₂ Reduction |
|
Researchers compared TiO2, pomegranate peel-derived carbon dots, TiO2/CDs, and Cu-CDs/TiO2 for UV-driven CO2 reduction, finding that catalyst composition strongly shaped product selectivity. Carbon dots favored oxygenated products, TiO2/CDs strongly favored CO formation, and copper modification promoted hydrogenation pathways toward more reduced products such as alkanes. |
