CO<sub>2</sub> Photoreduction Under Visible Light by TiO<sub>2</sub> and Carbon Dots Derived from Pyrolized Bio‐Oil
Herein, we report a study on pyrolysis bio-oil upgrading from leather shaving waste to dope in situ titania (TiO<sub>2</sub>) with carbon dots (cds). The cds doped TiO<sub>2</sub> exhibits remarkable activity as photocatalyst under solar light for the direct conversion of carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) and water vapor (H<sub>2</sub>O) to methane (CH<sub>4</sub>). Morover, the catalytic activity also increased under uv radiation.
