Publication number: 20230381726Abstract: A photocatalytic batch reactor can include a reactor vessel configured to receive a photocatalyst, the housing having an inlet, an outlet, and an opening configured to allow light to pass into the interior volume. The photocatalytic batch reactor can include a carbon-dioxide pump that is configured to pressurize carbon-dioxide en route to the reactor vessel. The photocatalytic batch reactor is operable in a gas state in which gas carbon-dioxide is supplied to the reactor vessel from a gas carbon-dioxide container. The photocatalytic batch reactor is also operable in a liquid state in which liquid carbon-dioxide is supplied to the reactor vessel from a liquid carbon-dioxide container. The photocatalytic batch reactor is also operable in a supercritical state, in which supercritical carbon-dioxide is supplied via the carbon-dioxide pump.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2023Publication date: November 30, 2023Inventors: Giovanni PALMISANO, Samar B.
