Overview

Randomized trial demonstrates selective methane oxidation to C1 products, suggesting a new photocatalyst design strategy.

Key Points

  • This research aims to enhance methane conversion efficiency through innovative photocatalyst design.
  • Designed a C/ZnO/Pd photocatalyst for methane oxidation
  • Achieved selectivity to C1 products with a production rate of 55.1 mmol·g cat –1 ·h –1
  • Conducted mechanistic studies on charge transfer pathways
  • Achieved a C1 production rate of 11,020 mmol·g Pd –1 ·h –1 with 98% selectivity
  • Identified synergistic electron and hole transfer pathways in the photocatalyst
  • Demonstrated the generalizability of this strategy across different metal active sites
