Abstract: Innovative tactics for environmental remediation through carbon management are vital due to the growing problems imposed by pollution and climate change. To protect the environment, heterojunction-based photocatalytic systems have become a probable technology for CO2 reduction to sustainable hydrocarbon fuels generation and sustainable waste degradation. In this study, various Bi2S3/CuMoO4 heterojunction photocatalysts are synthesized using hydrothermal treatment and characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, BET, UV–Vis, PL, EIS, and XPS analyses. In particular, the role of Bi2S3 with different weight percentage loading onto CuMoO4 is investigated. Among all synthesized photocatalysts, the optimum 5wt% Bi2S3/CuMoO4 photocatalyst exhibiting an enhanced visible light absorption capacity with the tunable bandgap energy of 1.71 eV offers selective photoreduction of CO2 to methanol as a sustainable fuel up to 306.7 µmol gcat−1 h−1. The renewable product obtained from photocatalytic CO2 reduction study is analysed and quantified by NMR spectroscopy. Despite a multi-cycle run up to three cycles, the direct Z-scheme interphase layer of 5wt% Bi2S3/CuMoO4 heterojunction photocatalyst promotes higher charge separation and electron transfer to the surface reactive zones for reducing the trapped CO2 to 100% selective methanol formation.
