The book explains the principles and fundamentals of phoatalysis and highlights the current developments and future potential of the green-chemistry-oriented applications of various inorganic, organic, and hybrid phoatalysts. The book consists of eleven chapters, including the principles and fundamentals of heterogeneous phoatalysis; the mechanisms and dynamics of surface phoatalysis; research on TiO2-based composites with unique nanostructures; the latest developments and advances in exploiting phoatalyst alternatives to TiO2; and phoatalytic materials for applications other than the traditional degradation of pollutants, such as carbon dioxide reduction, water oxidation, a complete spectrum of selective organic transformations and water splitting by phoatalytic reduction. In addition, heterogeneized polyoxometalate materials for phoatalytic purposes and the proper design of phoatalytic reactors and modeling of light are also discussed. This book appeals to a wide readership of the academic and industrial researchers and it can also be used in the classroom for undergraduate and graduate students focusing on heterogeneous phoatalysis, sustainable chemistry, energy conversion and storage, nanotechnology, chemical engineering, environmental protection, optoelectronics, sensors, and surface and interface science. Juan Carlos Colmenares isa Professor at the Institute of Physical Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences, Poland. Yi-Jun Xu is a Professor at the State Key Laboratory of Phoatalysis on Energy and Environment, College of Chemistry, Fuzhou University, China.
