This project aims to produce valuable chemicals from air, water and Australia’s abundant renewable energy, by developing efficient, robust catalysts for water oxidation, nitrogen reduction and ammonia oxidation — key processes for sustainable production of green fuels and fertilisers. The interdisciplinary project strategy will use a suite of advanced instrumental and theoretical tools to understand and control how catalysts operate. Expected outcomes include new techniques to study catalysts, new catalyst design concepts, and novel high-performance catalytic materials and devices for sustainable electrosynthesis. These new technologies should reduce emissions and help Australia be a world leader in renewable-energy and fertiliser export.

该项目旨在利用空气、水和澳大利亚丰富的可再生能源生产有价值的化学品，方法是开发高效、耐用的水氧化、氮还原和氨氧化催化剂--这是可持续生产绿色燃料和肥料的关键工艺。跨学科项目战略将使用一套先进的仪器和理论工具来理解和控制催化剂的运行方式。预期成果包括研究催化剂的新技术、新的催化剂设计概念以及用于可持续电合成的新型高性能催化材料和装置。这些新技术将减少排放，帮助澳大利亚成为可再生能源和化肥出口的世界领导者。
