This work provides an alternate unique simple methodology to design and synthesize chemically modified nanophotocatalyst based on high surface area TiO2 nanoparticles that can be used efficiently for the photodegradation of organic pollutants under normal visible light rather than complicated UV irradiation. In this study, dual visible light and UV-driven nanophotocatalysts were synthesized via wet chemistry procedures using high surface area TiO2 nanoparticles functionalized with (3-Aminopropyl) trimethoxysilane and attached chemically to the CuXO to improve the charge separation and maintain the non-charge recombination. The successful modification of the TiO2 nanoparticles and the formation of the TiO2-NH2-CuxO nanophotocatalyst were confirmed using different characterization techniques, and the results revealed the synthesis of high surface area TiO2 nanoparticles, and their chemical modification with an amino group and further decoration with copper to produce TiO2-NH2-CuxO nanophotocatalyst. The photocatalytic activity of TiO2 and TiO2-NH2-CuxO nanophotocatalyst were evaluated using methylene blue (MB) dye; as an example of organic pollutants. The resulting TiO2-NH2-CuxO nanophotocatalyst exhibited superior photocatalytic activity for the degradation of MB dye under visible light irradiation, due to the reduction in the energy bandgap. The degradation of the MB dye using the TiO2-NH2-CuxO nanophotocatalyst was investigated using LC-MS, and the results revealed that the hydroxyl free radical is mainly responsible for the cleavage and the degradation of the MB dye.

<p>This study evaluated the performance of the commonly used strong buffer electrolytes, i.e. phosphate buffers, during CO<sub>2</sub> electroreduction in neutral pH conditions by using in-situ surface enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRAS). Unfortunately, the buffers break down a lot faster than anticipated which has serious implications on many studies in the literature such as selectivity and kinetic analysis of the electrocatalysts. Increasing electrolyte concentration, surprisingly, did not extend the potential window of the phosphate buffers due to dramatic increase in hydrogen evolution reaction. Even high concentration phosphate buffers (1 M) break down within the potentials (-1 V vs RHE) where hydrocarbons are formed on copper electrodes. We have extended the discussion to high surface area electrodes by evaluating electrodes composed of copper nanowires. We would like highlight that it is not possible to cope with high local current densities on these high surface area electrodes by using high buffer capacity solutions and the CO<sub>2</sub> electrocatalysts are needed to be evaluated by casting thin nanoparticle films onto inert substrates as commonly employed in fuel cell reactions and up to now scarcely employed in CO<sub>2</sub> electroreduction. In addition, we underscore that normalization of the electrocatalytic activity to the electrochemical active surface area is not the ultimate solution due to concentration gradient along the catalyst layer.This will “underestimate” the activity of high surface electrocatalyst and the degree of underestimation will depend on the thickness, porosity and morphology of the catalyst layer. </p> <p> </p>
