Message from the Guest Editors Dear Colleagues, dating from the seminal work of Fujishima et al. issued in 1971, titanium dioxide (TiO2) is at the center of intense research devoted to the development of efficient photocatalysts. Among the many candidates for photocatalytic applications, TiO2 is almost the only material suitable for industrial use. This is because TiO2 shows a good trade-off between efficient photoactivity, high stability, and low cost. The present Special Issue of Catalysts is aimed at presenting the current state-of-the-art in the use of TiO2 as photocatalyst, with a special emphasis on new TiO2 nanomaterials (both powdered catalysts and photoelectrodes) for photocatalytic water splitting, CO2 reduction and environmental remediation. In the present Special Issue, we have invited contributions from leading groups in the field with the aim of giving a balanced view of the current state-of-the-art in this discipline.
