Catalysis and Advanced Inorganic Materials

Department Inorganic and Organic Chemistry, Faculty Chemistry
Research Areas: NanoEnergy

The research activities of the group focus on the preparation of tailored, nanostructured catalytic materials for energy conversion and chemical storage. The main goal of the research is to reach a high level of preparative abilities of nanostructured materials and the understanding of their characteristics. Then, this strategy is applied to two main domains: i) H2 production from bioresources (mainly bioalcohols) using catalytic reforming and photocatalytic processes and, ii) the chemical recycling of CO2 trough catalytic conversion and photoreduction to chemicals and liquid fuels. Two PhD and four Master Thesis on these subjects have been achieved in the last period (2017-18).
