Application of Compounds with Pyrochlore Structure in Photocatalysis

Currently, the activity of various photocatalytic systems in the degradation processes is studied using a large number of diverse organic substances as model pollutants (synthetic dyes, antibiotics, alcohols, aldehydes, aromatic compounds, etc.). Chapter 4 is devoted to the use of pyrochlore oxides in various photocatalytic reactions, namely degradation of organic pollutants, water splitting and CO2 reduction. Much attention is also paid to the reactions mechanism.
