Abstract

CO₂ emissions are a major contributor to the climate change due to the increase of CO₂ concentration in the atmosphere. CO₂ represents 70% of greenhouse gas emissions come essentially from human activities during the combustion of fossil resources such as petrol, natural gas, etc. Many initiatives that allow reducing the CO₂ concentration are developed. One of the most promising approaches is to convert CO₂ into fuels and into valuable chemicals through photocatalysis process. The CO₂ photoreduction into hydrocarbon is a promising method to convert CO₂ taking advantage of the readily available solar energy. To achieve the goal, it is necessary to develop an efficient photocatalyst and enhance both the CO₂ reduction and the efficiency yields. This chapter reviews recent developments, challenges, and novel approaches of CO₂ photoconversion for sustainable fuels. These include providing the photocatalytic properties of UV and visible light photocatalysts applied to CO₂ reduction, as well as the recent advances in the design of photocatalytic systems. At the same time, doping TiO₂ material with various metals or used as heterojunction allows an improvement photocatalytic activity under visible irradiation. Moreover, the effect of the doping can induce unique properties such as extended light absorption range, charge separation, and also an efficient reactivity. The contribution of carbon-based material and porous materials to the enhanced visible light-driven photocatalysis will be included. So, attractive properties make these materials as a good photocatalysts with immense potential in the elaboration of efficient visible light photocatalysts.
