Versatile Open-Source Photoreactor Architecture for Photocatalysis Across the Visible Spectrum

Adoption
of commercial photoreactors as standards for photocatalysis
research could be limited by high cost. We report the development
of the Wisconsin Photoreactor Platform (WPP), an open-source photoreactor
architecture potentially suitable for general adoption. The WPP integrates
inexpensive commercial components and common high-intensity LEDs in
a 3D-printed enclosure. Dimensions and features of WPP reactors can
be readily varied and configurations easily reproduced. WPP performance
is evaluated using literature transformations driven by light of disparate
wavelengths.
