To comprehensively review recent developments in porous graphitic carbon nitride photocatalysts, emphasizing synthesis methodologies, structural properties, and catalytic mechanisms for environmental and energy applications.
Synthesized findings across literature detailing the preparation methods, morphology, and physicochemical properties of porous carbon nitride (PCN) photocatalysts.
Evaluated performance enhancements in PCN relative to bulk graphitic carbon nitride, focusing on surface area, light harvesting, charge separation, and adsorption/activation kinetics.
Porous carbon nitride architectures significantly overcome the mass transfer and surface limitations of bulk g-C3N4 by offering substantially higher specific surface areas and active catalytic sites.
Pore engineering suppresses photogenerated electron-hole recombination and enhances optical absorption, improving overall solar-driven catalytic efficiency for pollution abatement and energy production.
