Production of methanol from carbon dioxide via photocatalysis route
Transparent conducing thin films of a P-type Nickel ferrite (NiFe2O4) was synthesized by sol-gel method under acidic conditions and then couple with existing semi-conductor, titanium oxide to form the photocatalyst nickel ferrite coupled titanium oxide (NiFe2O4/TiO2). This is done with the aim of co...

This is done with the aim of coupling a synthesized low band gap semiconductor, nickel ferrite (NiFe2O4), with titanium oxide (TiO2), which will be able to convert the higher band gap semiconductor to making a visible light driven catalyst.

The wavelength of light required to activate the catalyst was determined using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). The efficiency of the catalyst were measured using gas chromatography (GC) with DB-WAX was the column. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used for phase identification. |
