This paper is intended to review existing photocatalytic reactors as used in research and commercial applications. The guiding principles of effective reactor design are discussed, stressing the challenges faced by design teams. An account of specific reactor designs is given, highlighting innovative work and novel concepts. A concerted effort has been made to draw information from a wide variety of international sources, including scientific literature and web based sources.
