Perovskite materials for photocatalytic reduction of CO2

Perovskite photocatalysts have emerged as promising candidates for carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction due to their outstanding light absorption properties, efficient charge separation, and tunable band structures. Reported research explored the pathways for optimization of the perovskite structures, surface modifications, and doping strategies to enhance the efficiency of CO2 conversion. This research was focused on translating laboratory synthesis into practical applications such as the use of perovskites as coatings on construction materials, improving the materials' resistance to environmental conditions and degradation over time and contribute to effective conversion of carbon dioxide into products with potential use. Further optimization of perovskite coatings will facilitate their integration into sustainable construction materials. Therefore, the use of photocatalytic perovskite materials in for CO2 reduction has a great potential to address climate change by converting CO2 into valuable products.
