Abstract:

The greenhouse effect caused by excessive carbon dioxide(CO2) emissions makes global warming increasingly ur-gent,under the background of “double carbon”,how to utilize CO2 is of particular importance.The photocatalytic reduction of CO2 to produce chemicals and fuels is a promising way to solve both energy crisis and environmental problems.Non-metal semiconductor,polymeric carbon nitride(PCN) has attracted much attention in the field of photocatalysis due to its visible light response,high chemical stability,easy preparation and low cost.However,PCN prepared by the traditional thermal polymerization method suffers from small specific surface area,serious electron-hole recombination as well as limited visible light response range.The reaction mechanism of CO2 photoreduction and the structure of PCN were introduced.The preparation methods of PCN and the modification methods for improved photocatalytic performance were summarized,including morpho-logy control,heteroatom doping,defect engineering and heterojunction construction.Finally,the problems existing in the research of PCN materials in CO2 photoreduction were analyzed,and the future development direction was prospected.

Key words: photocatalysis, carbon dioxide reduction, polymeric carbon nitride, modification
