Molecular redox catalysis for the generation of solar fuels via artificial photosynthesis
Research
The group develops research in the field redox catalysis using transition metal complexes for the oxidation and reduction of organic and inorganic substrates of technological interest. It focuses specifically on the catalytic oxidation of water and ammonia and the reduction of carbon dioxide and nitrogen to liquid fuels. The final objective is the generation of clean and renewable fuels with high energy density via artificial photosynthesis.
Our research group develops cutting-edge research in the areas of molecular chemistry and material science for the generation of solar fuels via artificial photosynthesis for the benefit of our entire society
