Background of the Study
Catalytic Conversions
Artificial Photosynthesis
Objectives of the Study
• Cu/TiO2
• Fe3O4/Zeolite (ZSM-5)
Methodology
• Catalytic activity
• High selectivity to formation of desired product (ethanol)
• Long life (re use)
• Surface Structure
Coordination Number
Titanium (IV)
Rutile has a tetragonal unit cell. The
titanium cations have a coordination
number of 6, meaning they are
surrounded by an octahedron of 6
oxygen atoms. The oxygen anions
have a coordination number of 3,
resulting in a trigonal planar
coordination.
• Titanium Dioxide: Anatase
• Cordination no. 6
• Due to its functionality as a semiconductor
oxide photocatalyst and its considerable
interest towards Grätzel-cell photovoltaics, a
majority of studies into anatase materials
have focused on synthetic materials in
powder and thin film forms rather than
naturally occurring minerals.
Graphene Coordination Number
• Graphene
