How to Tune the Selectivity of Nitrogen-Doped Mesoporous Carbon Catalysts for Electrochemical Reduction of CO2

Nitrogen-doped carbon catalysts have been extensively investigated as cost-effective alternatives for CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) due to their apparent benefits such as high surface area, high material conductivity and opportunity for tuning dopant concentration.

Efficient precious-metal free bifunctional electrocatalyst for overall water splitting

The research into developing cost-effective and active catalyst materials that can replace the precious-metal-based benchmarks for electrocatalytic water splitting as well as for large-scale utilisation has been intense. Some reported that encapsulation of transition metals (TMs) inside nitrogen doped graphitic carbon (NC) showe a great potential in improving the electrocatalytic performances of the obtained catalyst materials.

PartCat researchers awarded $2.3M in grants for renewable hydrogen research

PartCat researchers have been awarded $2.3 million for two projects that will harvest solar energy to produce renewable hydrogen. The funding was announced by the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) as part of ARENA's Research and Development Program - Renewable Hydrogen for Export and is supported by financial and in-kind support from industry and university project partners.

Superior catalytic performance of alloyed NiCo catalyst for DRM

With limited fuel reserves and increasing concentrations of atmospheric CO2, the conversion of CO2 into valuable products is of ever increasing importance.

New way to design Bismuth based semiconductors for photocatalytic water splitting

In the recent paper published in Chemical Engineering Journal, Wu et. al, demonstrated that the hydrothermally prepared Bi2MoO6:Bi2Mo3O12 heterojunction improved the photocatalytic water oxidation, due to the staggered band energy levels which are beneficial for efficient charge separation.

ARC Linkage success for treatment of industrial wastewater using simple and cheap catalyst

In the latest round of Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage Grant funding, Prof Amal and her team has secure $562K for a project that will enable timely treatment of industrial waste water as well as swerate treatment plant eflluents using simple and cheap catalyst materials.
