Join us this April as Professor Frank Gu discusses taking global solutions for sustainability from the lab into business. Conducting research and training of highly skilled researchers have long been a central focus of universities. A roadmap to bring knowledge created in an academic lab to a practical application can be a convoluted and challenging process. […]
Join Anita Sommer to learn how you can accelerate your research and development activities through a mission-driven innovation approach to navigate volatility, ambiguity, and complexity while delivering research & technology development performance. Anita will share state-of-the-art case examples from the LEGO Group’s zero impact journey and from the Novo Nordisk Foundation CO2 Research Center delivering unique progress on CO2 capture & […]
Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are highly versatile materials for gas separation, storage, sensing, and catalysis. Their modular design allows almost unlimited structural variation, but finding the best material for a specific use remains a significant challenge. The design options are immense, objectives can conflict, and even ideal structures in theory can be hard to produce. Artificial […]
To meet the ever-increasing global energy demands while addressing climate change, the development of carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies is one of the critical needs. In particular, there have been significant efforts to develop innovative CO2 capture materials and CO2 conversion technologies to create a new circular carbon economy based on renewable energy. The next-generation […]
Passionate about conducting research through a master’s or doctoral degree in chemical engineering? You will not want to miss our Virtual Graduate Research Day 2025 (VGRD2025) on October 31, 2025, 1:00-3:00 p.m. (EST). This is a unique opportunity to experience what U of T's Department of Chemical Engineering & Applied Chemistry can offer you as a graduate student. Apply […]
The chemical industry is one of the biggest contributors to climate change, with a two-fold dependence on fossil fuels, both as starting materials and as an energy source for chemical reactions. The Baker group aims to reduce this reliance by developing electrochemical reactions that use renewable building blocks, thus increasing process sustainability and enabling new […]
Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is a globally significant methane sink in the ocean. It is mediated by slow-growing microorganisms that have been challenging to culture in the laboratory. In deep-sea cold seeps, where methane is advected to the seabed, AOM is largely mediated through syntrophic relationships between diverse methane-oxidizing archaea (ANME) and sulfate-reducing bacteria […]
