Research Interests

As a researcher in the field of electrochemistry and electrochemical engineering, I have been heavily involved in applying electrochemical technologies to achieve carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) for over six years. My research interests focus on electrochemistry-enabled advanced technology for direct air capture and electrochemical CO2 reduction. In addition to my research efforts, I am deeply committed to promoting the importance of electrochemistry for addressing global challenges, particularly those related to climate change. I believe that electrochemical technologies have the potential to play a significant role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and transitioning to a more sustainable future. My goal is to continue working towards a more equitable and sustainable future.
