Wastewater as a photoelectrochemical fuel source: light-to-electrical energy conversion with organochloride remediation

Abstract

A photogalvanic cell that employs 2,4-dichlorophenol as a fuel source, an N-substituted phenothiazine as light harvester, and sacrificial zinc anode is presented, and shown to afford a ca. 4% light-to-electrical power conversion efficiency in violet light.
