研究领域

Electrocatalysis and photoelectrocatalysis Electrochemical energy Advanced electrocatalytic materials Electrochemical synthesis and manufacturing Biorenewables Our interdisciplinary research is at the interface of science and engineering. We are exploring electrochemical processing of biorenewables, CO2, N2 for chemicals or fuels manufacturing. Our current research activities include development of advanced electrocatalysts, exploration of novel electrochemical processes and systems, storage of renewable electricity into hydrocarbon fuels from biomass feedstock, electroreduction of CO2 to fuels, ammonia electrosynthesis, electrocatalytic oxygen reduction and evolution, high-performance and low cost fuel cells and electrolyzers, novel concept flow batteries, and photoelectrolysis for water splitting.
