Our research goal is the establishment of advanced future artificial carbon
neutral cycle based on sustainable and nuclear energies.
Currently, we perform the researches to develop a new class of high-efficiency
CO2 capture process, carbon-free hydrogen production, and CO2 conversion pathways through the developments of new advanced materials
and innovative chemical engineering processes.
Research
High-efficiency CO2 capture
The establishment of low-cost and high-efficiency CO2 capture system is a crucial challenge for the lowering of CO2 emissions from various industrial sources standing on the fossil fueles.
We are currently engaged in the researches to explore the new original
high performance CO2 absorbents by the applications of core-shell type nanoparticels, molten
ionic oxides,....etc., and design the advanced carbon capture processes
based on these new absorbents.
Carbon-free hydrogen production
Carbon-free high-efficiency hydrogen production is a key technolgoy toward the future clean hydrogen societies.We focus on the new sorption enhanced steam methane reforming (SE-SMR) process with the advanced continuous CO2 capture system as a promising way to make the breakthrough on this challenge.Low-cost CO2 conversion process
The utilization of CO2 is also an important and indispensable piece to complte the cycle of carbon neutral. We explore the new advanced approaches based on the original ionic materials for high efficiency CO2 conversion to produce useful high energy chemicals.
