Popis: | The study of photocatalytic reactions was initiated in 1970's. The definitions of photocatalysis, photosynthesis and photodegradation (photo-ageing) are given. For photocatalysis the wavelength of UV irradiation and the nature of the photocatalyst are discussed. The experimental conditions and the mechanism of the photo-partial-oxidation of alkanes and olefinic hydrocarbons into aldehydes and ketones, at R.T., are presented. Conditions for the ``photo-splitting'' of water are discussed. |
