## Abstract Shine a light: A PtNiRu/TiO~2~ anode catalyst for direct ethanol fuel cells shows photocatalytic activity. The peak current density for ethanol oxidation under solar light illumination is 2β3 times greater than that in the absence of solar light. Ethanol is oxidized by lightβgenerated h
Owing to the formation of an oxametallacyclic conformation, the CeC bond cleavage is the preferential channel for the ethanol dissociation on the Rh surface, the addition of Rh to Pt can increase the CO 2 yield during the ethanol oxidation. However, in acidic media the slow oxidation kinetics of CO
