We are mainly focused on the fields of capturing and utilising carbon dioxide waste emitted from energy-intensive industries.

Our research interests include:

  • Electrochemical conversion of CO2 to produce value-added products
  • Electro-catalysts design and development
  • CO2 capture techniques and process integration
  • Electrode structure design and optimisation
  • CO2 electrolyser development and optimisation
  • Industrial carbon footprint mapping and modelling
  • Techno-economic feasibility analysis for CO2 capture and utilisation technologies.

Facilities

10. Laboratory scale carbon dioxide electrolysis cell-Beta with gas diffusion electrode (GDE)

Laboratory scale carbon dioxide electrolysis cell-Beta with gas diffusion electrode (GDE)The laboratory scale carbon dioxide cell was designed for research in carbon dioxide electrochemical reduction at room temperature. The cell is especially equipped a GDE holder, where a GDE with a dimension up to 4.9cm2 can be installed.

The electrolysis cell also allows batch, semi-continuous and potential continuous operation, which is suitable for material development, process optimisation, and engineering innovations.
