Research Field

Thermal dynamic catalytic conversion of carbon dioxide:

1. Designing highly active catalysts to explore the mechanism of methane and higher alcohol generation.

2. Designing noble metal single-atom catalysts to reveal the intrinsic catalyst structure in depth.

3. Designing alloy catalysts to investigate the effects of hydrogen spiliover, oxygen vacancies and metal-support interactions on CO₂ methanation.

4. Optimizing the reaction parameters (impurity and gas supply ratio) to verify and improve the industrial implementability of Power-to-Gas technology.

Thermal catalytic conversion of biomass:

1. Designing inexpensive highly dispersed Ni/C catalysts and investigate their activity and mechanism of catalytic biomass tar cracking.

2. Designing molecular sieve catalysts to modulate product composition of the biomass pyrolysis and analyze the N transfer mechanism.

3. Designing noble metal highly selective catalysts for the selective conversion of lignin model compounds.
