Methane Conversion, Syngas & Hydrogen Technologies
We design advanced heterogeneous catalysts for methane conversion, with particular emphasis on dry reforming of methane for hydrogen-rich syngas production and selective methane transformation into valuable chemicals. Our work explores catalyst morphology, metal-support interactions, surface chemistry, and strategies for improving activity and stability.
