Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) are being developed globally, supported by the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA), a program developed by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). The CORSIA standards become mandatory for virtually all UN Member States in 2027, and aim to achieve carbon-neutral growth in international aviation emissions by 2050 […]

Advancements in electrochemical separation have paved the way for innovative approaches to address critical challenges in water treatment and resource recovery. In this seminar, I will introduce the Electrochemical Ion Pumping (EIP) platform, a transformative new approach to electrochemical separation that addresses the inherent limitations of conventional capacitive deionization and electrosorption. EIP leverages circuit-switching-induced ion […]

Molecular engineering tools excel at imparting transformative functions into polymers for cutting-edge technologies such as plastic recycling, soft actuators, energy storage, and wearable electronics. This presentation highlights our adaptations designing functional polymers for battery applications, including polymer electrolytes, electrode binder, and tailored components for wearable batteries. First, polymer network electrolytes offer high dimensional stability for […]
