PHOTOCATALYTIC REACTORS AND RELATED METHODS

Some of the present reactors and systems include a reactor body having a substantially-planar bottom and one or more sidewalls extending from the bottom to define a recess, the reactor body defining inlet(s) and outlet(s) for liquid and gas, and a lid configured to be coupled to the reactor body to cover the recess such that the interface between the reactor body and the lid is substantially sealed, where at least one of the reactor body and the lid is configured to transmit incident ultraviolet light into the recess, and where the reactor body is configured to receive a photocatalyst in the recess such that at least a portion of liquid delivered to the recess through the liquid inlet(s) can react with the photocatalyst in the presence of the ultraviolet light to generate gas. Some reactors and systems include liquid and gas circulation systems having pumps and conduits. 本反应器和系统中的些包括反应器主体，该反应器主体具有基本平面的底部和从底部延伸以限定凹部的个或更多个侧壁，所述反应器主体限定用于液体和气体的入口和出口；和盖，其被配置为耦接到反应器主体以覆盖凹部，使得反应器主体与盖之间的交界面基本密封，其中反应器主体和盖中的至少个被配置为将入射紫
