Our modern society is faced with challenges in energy, environment, and resources. The chemical industry for hydrogen production, for example, is highly energy intensive and also emits a large amount of greenhouse gases. There is an urgent need of technological transformations in the chemical industries for building a sustainable energy future. At ShanghaiTech, our research group is exploring unconventional electrochemical materials and sustainable processes to enable energy, environmental and electronic technologies. Our current projects include:
1. Catalytic synthesis of fuels: designing, preparing and characterizing catalysts & reactors for producing fuels.
2. Critical metals extraction and recycling: developing environmentally friendly electrochemical processes for materials extraction and recycling.
3. Carbon capture: design and investigate new methods for capturing carbon dioxide from air or flue gas.
4. Complex oxides for energy and electronic applications: materials synthesis, control and characterization of electronic and ionic properties, and nanofabrication of field-effect devices.
有关能源、环境和资源利用中的关键问题，课题组以电化学为中心提出新思路并且探索解决方案，研究目标是促进碳中和的实现以及可持续能源未来的建设。课题组的主要研究方向包括电化学工程、高温热催化和电催化、金属元素回收、和功能氧化物薄膜材料。欢迎对这些方向感兴趣的助理研究员、博士后、研究生和本科生加入，有意者请直接邮件联系。
