Abstract

Photoelectrocatalysis (PEC) provides an effective and sustainable means for the treatment of waters contaminated by emerging pollutants. Beyond water decontamination, PECs can be harnessed for green energy generation and CO₂ reforming due to the wide variety of existing semiconductor materials. The configuration of PEC systems enables more effective separation of charge carriers generated from an ideally irradiated polarized photoanode, thereby extending the electron–hole lifetime. This short review presents trends, advancements, critiques, and future perspectives related to PEC applied in studies of sustainable water treatment.

期刊介绍： The development of the Current Opinion journals stemmed from the acknowledgment of the growing challenge for specialists to stay abreast of the expanding volume of information within their field. In Current Opinion in Electrochemistry, they help the reader by providing in a systematic manner: 1.The views of experts on current advances in electrochemistry in a clear and readable form. 2.Evaluations of the most interesting papers, annotated by experts, from the great wealth of original publications. In the realm of electrochemistry, the subject is divided into 12 themed sections, with each section undergoing an annual review cycle: • Bioelectrochemistry • Electrocatalysis • Electrochemical Materials and Engineering • Energy Storage: Batteries and Supercapacitors • Energy Transformation • Environmental Electrochemistry • Fundamental & Theoretical Electrochemistry • Innovative Methods in Electrochemistry • Organic & Molecular Electrochemistry • Physical & Nano-Electrochemistry • Sensors & Bio-sensors •
