Key Points

  • To develop a photoanode that efficiently converts glycerol into dihydroxyacetone using a novel structure.
  • Developed a ternary photoanode of FeOOH/2PACz/BiVO4.
  • Utilized an organic semiconductor interlayer to improve charge transport.
  • Integrated FeOOH as a cocatalyst to boost surface reaction kinetics.
  • The FeOOH/2PACz/BiVO4 photoanode demonstrated increased charge separation efficiency.
  • Significant improvement in the kinetics of glycerol conversion to dihydroxyacetone was observed.
  • Enhanced overall photoelectrochemical efficiency compared to conventional systems.

Abstract

A ternary FeOOH/2PACz/BiVO 4 photoanode is developed, where an organic semiconductor interlayer facilitates charge separation and transport, while FeOOH serves as a cocatalyst to enhance surface reaction kinetics. As a result,...
