Abstract
Abstract Xe-lamp irradiation of a platinized TiO2 photocatalyst in the presence of water and chlorine or nitrogen containing organic molecules, synthetic or natural, leads to the production of hydrogen at room temperature without the release of halogen or nitrogen compounds in the gas phase.
