2D Materials (2DM) based photocatalyst for environmental remediation

2D Materials (2DM) based photocatalyst for environmental remediation

R. Roshan Chandrapal, G. Bakiyaraj

Creating a sustainable environment is one of the most important issues facing modern society. Together with an increase in human activity and a rise in per capita income, there has been a noticeable population boom. A growing number of people are becoming concerned about whether the natural resources of our planet will be viable in the long run. In addition, pollution of the air, water, and soil has resulted from industrialization, urbanization, and contemporary farming methods. Given the current situation, widespread exploitation and the widespread presence of hazardous substances are posing growing challenges to the ability of future generations to flourish. Water is separated into hydrogen and oxygen in this process, with the hydrogen being used as fuel. For semiconductor-based photocatalysts and materials to be used effectively in photocatalytic degradation processes for environmental remediation and energy conversion applications, a thorough understanding of their characteristics and behavior is essential. 2DM are an emerging class of nanomaterials with exceptional properties. These composites combine the unique qualities of specific 2DM to create new capabilities. To achieve an increased efficiency, a variety of 2D composites (0D/2D, 1D/2D, 2D/2D, and 3D/2D) are used. Two unique 2D materials that can be stacked to create designer materials with particular properties are graphene and hexagonal boron nitride. Materials derived from 2DM-composite provide exciting prospects in the realm of photocatalysts for the degradation of organic pollutants. Because of their varied uses and customizability, they are at the forefront of developing advanced materials for a range of applications. More groundbreaking 2DM composite with game-changing implications for photocatalysis could be in store.
