Cordierite monolithic support was employed in order to load the catalyst Received in revised form 14 July 2017 for improved photo-activity and reusability in CO2 utilization process. The samples were characterized by Accepted 23 July 2017 XRD, Raman, SEM, TEM, FTIR, XPS, N2 adsorption-desorption, UV–vis and PL spectroscopy. The synergistic Available online 24 July 2017 effect of MMT-dispersed Au/TiO2 nanocatalyst was evaluated in a gas-phase dynamic monolith photore- actor system using UV and visible light irradiations. The maximum CO yield over 0.5 wt.% Au–10 wt.% Keywords
