Perovskite-based electrocatalysts for water electrolysis

本项目旨在开发具有高催化活性和长期稳定性的新型钙钛矿型催化剂，为碱性水裂解的实际应用奠定基础。基于低成本和富含稀土的钙钛矿氧化物，将开发一系列新的碱性介质中的全水分解材料，为基准贵金属基催化剂提供一种可行的替代方案。这些高效的钙钛矿催化剂产生的清洁氢能不仅将减少二氧化碳排放和缓解空气污染，还将为澳大利亚的行业创造机会，例如可再生太阳能和风能以及燃料电池汽车的广泛使用。

This project aims to develop novel perovskite-based catalysts with high catalytic activity and long-term stability for the practical application of alkaline water splitting. A new family of overall water-splitting materials in alkaline media based on low-cost and earth-abundant perovskite oxides will be developed, which offer a viable alternative to the benchmark noble metal-based catalysts. Clean hydrogen energy generated by these efficient perovskite catalysts will not only reduce carbon dioxide emissions and alleviate air pollution, but also create opportunities for Australian industries, such as the widespread use of renewable solar and wind energy and fuel cell vehicles.
