Multiscale Design of Electrocatalysts for On-Demand H2O2 Production

该项目的目的是设计多尺度的先进单原子催化剂，用于有效和选择性地将氧气电催化还原为过氧化氢，作为清洁化学品和燃料。它预计将产生新的知识，在材料科学和电化学，使用跨学科的方法，多尺度材料工程，原位表征和理论计算。预期成果包括通用的设计原则，创新的合成策略，完善的反应机制的理解，和商业相关的电解技术。好处包括澳大利亚的可持续未来，先进的制造业，减少排放和弹性化学品供应。

The aim of this project is to design advanced single-atom catalysts at multiscale for efficient and selective electrocatalytic reduction of oxygen to hydrogen peroxides as clean chemicals and fuels. It is expected to generate new knowledge in materials science and electrochemistry, using interdisciplinary approaches of multiscale material engineering, in situ characterisation and theoretical calculations. Expected outcomes include generalised design principles, innovative synthesis strategies, refined reaction mechanism understanding, and commercially relevant electrolysis technologies. Benefits include a sustainable future for Australia with advanced manufacturing, decreased emissions and resilient chemicals supply.
