(author), Buskens, Pascal (author), Sastre, Francesc (author)Plasmonic CO<sub>2</sub> methanation using γ-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-supported Ru nanorods was carried out under continuous-flow conditions without conventional heating, using mildly concentrated sunlight as the sole and sustainable energy source (AM 1.5, irradiance 5.5–14.4 kW·m<sup>−2</sup> = 5.5–14.4 suns). Under 12.5 suns, a CO<sub>2<...journal article 2022

Martínez Molina, Pau (author), Meulendijks, Nicole (author), Xu, M. (author), Verheijen, Marcel A. (author), den Hartog, Tim (author), Buskens, Pascal (author), Sastre, Francesc (author)Sunlight-powered reduction of CO<sub>2</sub> to fuels and chemicals is a promising strategy to close the carbon loop and facilitate the energy transition. In this research, we demonstrate that Au nanoparticles supported on TiO<sub>2</sub> are an efficient plasmonic catalyst for the sunlight-powered reverse water-gas shift (rWGS) reaction.

Hajipour, Pejman (author), Bahrami, Abbas (author), Yazdan Mehr, M. (author), van Driel, W.D. (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author)This paper investigates the photocatalytic characteristics of Ag nanowire (AgNW)/TiO2 and AgNW/TiO2/graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposites. Samples were synthesized by the direct coating of TiO2 particles on the surface of silver nanowires. As-prepared AgNW/TiO2 and AgNW/TiO2/GO nanocomposites were characterized by electron microscopy, X-ray...journal article 2021
