Abstract
The two-electron reduction of molecular oxygen to hydrogen peroxide can be catalyzed by metal oxide semiconductor particles in the presence of visible and near-UV light. Even though very high quantum yields for this process are observed, rather low steady-state concentrations of H_2O_2 are reached. Detailed mechanisms are presented to explain these experimental findings. Metal oxide particles are found in atmospheric and surface waters. The environmental significance of photocatalytic formation of H_2O_2 on these particles in natural systems is discussed.
