Catalysis and surfaces

machine learning to use in the field of catalysis for developing new and better energy technologies and products to improve daily life.  

“About 90 percent of the products you see today are actually coming from catalysis,” Xin said. The trick is finding the efficient and robust catalysts for each application, and finding new ones can be difficult.

ccelerate discovery of materials for important technologies, such as fuel cells and carbon capture devices.

right catalyst can turn ordinary water – or even CO2 – into a clean-burning fuel; the wrong one will quickly degrade performance in solar-cell or electronics manufacturing. In biology, one key enzyme catalyzes the reduction of O2 to H2O in human respiration; another promotes the inflammatory response of celiac disease

catalytic processes can improve efficiency and reduce costs – both economic and environmental – of any chemical process

reactions essential to industrial production, health and the environment. Ongoing efforts put this knowledge to work, harnessing catalysis to make chemical bonds in new ways and create new forms of matter. At the forefront of new approaches for generating and storing energy
