Abstract

Photocatalytic hydrogen production without the bypass via photovoltaics and electrolysis has been realized using a versatile photocatalytic system with only three components: the redox mediator ethyl viologen, the photocatalyst proflavin and the sacrificial donor EDTA. By adding a reduction catalyst made of nano-platinum on alumina to the aqueous solution of these three chemicals, hydrogen can be produced by irradiation with sunlight.
