Sacrificial agents for photocatalytic hydrogen production: Effects, cost, and development

In this Activity article, Tierui Zhang (professor at the Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences) and Siyu Lu (research-team professor at Zhengzhou University) introduce the effects, cost, and development of sacrificial agents for photocatalytic H 2 production and discuss the opportunities and challenges of photocatalytic H 2 production coupled with the conversion of sacrificial agents to value-added chemicals.
