燃料和化学品消费量日益增加与资源数量有限之间的明显不协调，导致我们寻求维持我们社会可持续性的手段。人工光合作用利用太阳光从丰富的资源中产生高价值的化学物质，被认为是最有前途和可行的方法。本文从人工光合作用的关键组成部分：光电化学水分解的发展和电化学CO2还原的最新进展两个方面，介绍了人工光合作用领域的进展和挑战。催化的进展，关于使用可再生氢作为主要化学生产的原料，概述了人工光合作用在实现可持续化学中的最终作用。
The apparent incongruity between the increasing consumption of fuels and chemicals and the finite amount of resources has led us to seek means to maintain the sustainability of our society. Artificial photosynthesis, which utilizes sunlight to create high-value chemicals from abundant resources, is considered as the most promising and viable method. This Minireview describes the progress and challenges in the field of artificial photosynthesis in terms of its key components: developments in photoelectrochemical water splitting and recent progress in electrochemical CO2 reduction. Advances in catalysis, concerning the use of renewable hydrogen as a feedstock for major chemical production, are outlined to shed light on the ultimate role of artificial photosynthesis in achieving sustainable chemistry.
