Abstract
According to one embodiment, a photochemical reaction system comprises a COproduction unit, a COabsorption unit, and a COreduction unit. The COreduction unit comprises a laminated body and an ion transfer pathway. The laminated body comprises an oxidation catalyst layer producing Oand Hby oxidizing HO, a reduction catalyst layer producing carbon compounds by reducing COabsorbed by the COabsorption unit, and a semiconductor layer formed between the oxidation catalyst layer and the reduction catalyst layer and develops charge separation with light energy. The ion transfer pathways make ions move between the oxidation catalyst layer side and the reduction catalyst layer side.
