GROUP MISSION
CataLab is dedicated to advancing catalytic science by bridging fundamental surface science with real-world applications in powder and industrial catalysis. With expertise in chemical engineering and surface science, we address critical energy and environmental challenges, ultimately contributing to carbon neutrality and climate change mitigation. Our research focuses on developing logical and systematic experimental approaches to translate fundamental insights from surface science into practical catalytic solutions. Specifically, we design and engineer heterogeneous catalysts, such as metal-supported metal oxides and metal-exchanged zeolites, utilizing advanced spectroscopic techniques alongside kinetic measurements to understand and optimize their performance. By applying our expertise, we strive to drive innovation across diverse catalytic processes, including sustainable chemical synthesis, industrial pollutant removal, enabling the hydrogen economy, and CO2 capture and conversion into valuable products. Through interdisciplinary research, we aim to accelerate the transition to a cleaner and more sustainable future.
