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.商用光反应器作为光催化研究的标准装置，其普及应用常受限于高昂的购置成本。本研究报道了威斯康星光反应器平台（Wisconsin Photoreactor Platform, WPP）的研发工作，该开源光反应器架构具备通用推广的潜力。WPP采用低成本商用元器件与常见的高强度发光二极管（LED）进行集成，并封装于3D打印外壳内。WPP反应器的尺寸与结构特征可灵活调整，其搭建配置也易于复现。本研究借助不同波长光源驱动的文献报道反应，对WPP的性能开展了评估。
