Funded Activity Summary

Porous Carbon Based Catalysts for Lithium Air Batteries. Greenhouse gas emissions from the consumption of fossil fuels are causing disastrous climate change and global warming. The research and development of electric vehicles to replace conventional vehicles has emerged as a solution to this imminent problem. The progress of battery technology plays a key role in the development of electric vehicles. This project addresses the issues by the development of innovative porous carbon based materials for next generation batteries with high capability, high power density and excellent retention. Furthermore, this project will also benefit Australia in the research forefront of nanotechnology, materials engineering, energy storage and applied chemistry.
