Advanced materials and electrochemical tools for energy production and conversion

这项研究计划旨在开发用于能源生产和转换的新材料，以及极端条件下材料表征的先进技术。越来越多的能源生产、废物处理和环境友好型化学的新技术依赖于超临界流体的使用，推动了这一计划。我们对通过分解水生产氢气特别感兴趣，因为它可以替代化石燃料，从而有助于减轻温室气体对气候变化的负面影响。

This research program is aimed to develop new materials for energy production and conversion, and advanced techniques for materials characterization under extreme conditions. The growing number of new technologies for energy production, waste treatment and environmentally-friendly chemistry relying on the use of supercritical fluids motivates this program. We are particularly interested in hydrogen production by splitting of water, since it can represent an alternative for replacing fossil fuels thereby contributing to mitigate the negative impact of greenhouse gases on climate change.
