Abstract

The remarkable features of nanotechnologies have made them extremely valuable in the domains of photocatalysis and catalysis because of their remarkable advancements in selectivity and efficacy. Nanomaterials are versatile materials that can be electronically, optically, and structurally modified to improve their performance in catalytic application. Some recent developments in nanotechnology have led to atomic-level understanding of many mechanisms underlying nanocatalysis and photocatalysis such as surface imperfections, electron transports, and photon captures. This chapter shows how nanomaterials have transformed catalysis and photocatalysis process which may change energy conversion methods through environmentally friendly techniques for environmental protection including pollution prevention and chemical manufacturing processes. It is also a possibility that continued evolvement in nanotechnology will provide answers to global issues related to the development of sustainable energy sources.
