摘要

Herein, the effects of precursor (urea, melamine, and dicyandiamide), calcination temperature, and Pt/Au loading on the photothermal carbon dioxide reduction performance of g-C3N4 catalyst were studied, and its physicochemical and photochemical properties were characterized. The results showed that the increase of calcination temperature stabilized the crystal structure but decreased the carbon dioxide adsorption and light absorption capacity. Urea-derived g-C3N4 calcined at 550 °C achieved CO and CH4 yields of 1.42 and 0.21 µmol·g-1·h-1, respectively, which had the strongest photoelectron transfer capacity and catalytic efficiency. Through the surface plasmon effect, Pt and Au can effectively improve the light absorption property and charge transfer efficiency of g-C3N4 catalyst, thus effectively improving the catalytic performance. Pt loading (2 wt%) enhanced CH4 selectivity to 64.4% (vs. 12.9% for pure g-C3N4), while Au loading (3 wt%) boosted CO production to 4.17 µmol·g-1·h-1, A higher noble metal loading ratio leads to a decline in catalytic performance, possibly due to the agglomeration of precious metal particles.
