英文摘要: The rapidly increasing CO2 levels, e.g., 37.1 billion tons of CO2 in 2018 and ever-increasing energy demand, have hugely contributed to global warming. To reduce the global temperature rise, i.e., <2 °C, it requires 20 billion tons of CO2 removal, annually. Oceanic plants, i.e., phytoplankton, are responsible for generating ~80% of O2 in Earth's atmosphere, but, stock-flow of CO2 is affecting the distribution of these plants, and destabilizing the marine ecosystems, thereby making a self-sustained cycle of accelerated climate change. Recently, researchers have started exploring nanoclusters (NCs), which can potentially fulfill energy demand with higher efficiency by photocatalytic oxidation of water (H2O) by producing oxygen, hydrogen, and other solar fuels like methanol. NCs can be used in plants to improve photocatalytic efficiency, oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in fuel cells, artificial photosynthesis machines, efficiency improvement in dye-sensitized solar cells to space travel. In this sense, the present review discusses various nanocluster materials, their synthesis methods, resulting properties, and recent advancements for efficient artificial and biohybrid photosynthetic systems. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.
