Funded Activity Summary

Heterogeneous Molecular Catalysts for Carbon Dioxide Conversion. This project aims to develop a series of structure-tailored, activity-enhanced and selectivity-oriented heterogeneous molecular catalysts for efficiently converting carbon dioxide (CO2) into value-added fuels and chemicals. Innovations are expected in the rational design and engineering of materials, new mechanistic findings from computation and in-situ characterisation, and breakthroughs in CO2 conversion. Expected outcomes include new synthesis methods, innovative multi-structural engineering strategies, thorough reaction mechanism understanding, and high-performance commercially-relevant CO2 reduction electrolysis. Benefits include a sustainable future for Australia with decreased CO2 emissions and increased green-fuel production.
