Center Overview
Electrochemistry, and the science and technology of its applications, is like an antique - old but fascinating. The history of electrochemistry is filled with major advances in fundamental understanding and technology development that helped define modern civilization and human life. For example, corrosion control, electrocatalysis, fuel cells, and aqueous processing of metal ores all root from electrochemistry. For the past 12 years, our research interests have been interdisciplinary studies of electrochemistry, corrosion, metallurgy, and nanomaterials as catalysts, as shown in Dr.Liu's previous project and publication records. Nowadays, environmental sustainability demands a reduction in carbon emission and pollution in energy production, much of which can be achieved by investigating corrosion and electrochemistry in advanced energy systems (CEAES).
About Dr. Jing Liu
Dr. Jing Liu received her Ph.D. in 2015 from UBC. After that, she worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at UBC for three years and worked as a metallurgist in Kemetco Research Inc for one year. Currently, she is an Associate Professor at the U of A.
Her research interests include corrosion and materials degradation, electrochemistry, high entropy alloys (HEAs), and materials characterization.
Academic Awards
Petro-Canada Young Investigator Award, 2022
The Petro-Canada Emerging Innovator Awards recognize, promote, and support outstanding and innovative faculty researchers at the University of Alberta whose academic work benefits the learning environment of their department and whose research has potential to be of significance to society at large.
Title: Corrosion risk analysis of the next generation in situ extraction with captured CO2.
MetSoc Brimacombe Award, 2024
The Brimacombe award is to recognize early-career MetSoc member achievers who have made noteworthy contributions in the metallurgical and materials community. The contributions and impact must be to the benefit of Canada.
UAERC in Materials Innovation for Energy Infrastructure Transformation, 2024-2029
The Faculty of Engineering at the U of A has initiated the University of Alberta Engineering Research Chairs (UAERCs) Program. This effort aims to promote the establishment of new collaborative partnerships and sustain existing ones, thus continuing the legacy of the NSERC Industrial Research Chair (IRC) Program. The IRC Program ceased accepting new applications or renewals in September 2019. The UAERC Program operates as a competitive initiative with the goal of awarding UAERCs to a maximum of 20% of the Faculty of Engineering's professoriate.
