Photocatalytic water splitting is a process that uses photocatalysis for the dissociation of water (H2O) into hydrogen (H 2) and oxygen (O 2). The inputs are light energy (photons), water, and a catalyst(s). The process is inspired by Photosynthesis, which converts water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and carbohydrates. Water splitting using solar radiation has not been commercialized.[1] Photocatalytic water splitting is done by dispersing photocatalyst particles in water or depositing them on a substrate, unlike Photoelectrochemical cell, which are assembled into a cell with a photoelectrode.[2] Hydrogen fuel production using water and light (photocatalytic water splitting), instead of petroleum, is an important renewable energy strategy.
