Expertise
My research journey mainly focused on sustainable energy for making pollution free environment. I have ten years of research experience at universities in Asia and Europe, focusing on sustainable energy, which includes energy storage and conversion, PEM and AEM water electrolysis, converting CO₂ reduction in electrolyser using zero-gap and flow cell. In addition, I am familiar with electrodeposition, electrochemical synthesis, and making nanomaterials. So far, I have published 32 research articles and contributed to book chapters. Alongside my research skills, I had several years of teaching experience prior to my PhD studies. I have instructed foundational chemistry courses for undergraduate and graduate students. The current project is working on converting CO₂ into valuable products and chemicals using a CO₂ electrolyser (zero-gap/flow cell). This project's name is CO₂ Threading—a pilot-scale electrolyser design for CO₂ conversion to CO as a product. This project's tasks include catalyst synthesis, gas diffusion electrode preparation, single-cell stack design, etc. Moreover, I have successfully obtained and completed two research grants in the Czech Republic. The first grant was provided by “The Grant Agency of the Czech Republic (GACR)” and focused on creating a special cathode electrocatalyst for “Electrochemical Hydrogen Evolution in a single-cell proton exchange membrane water electrolyser” (fund value: 250,000 euro). The second research project concentrated on the "Electrochemical Synthesis of Hypervalent Iodine Compounds", granted by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic (Fund value: 86,400 Euros). I have comprehensive expertise in securing project funding, trouble shoot in the results, handling projects, management budgets, and droughting project reports and other related tasks. Furthermore, I have participated in many international conferences and worked with foreign universities in my academic endeavors. I am more familiar with electrochemical instruments, electrolyser, training and practical experience in hydrogen production through PEM water electrolysis, nanoparticle synthesis, membrane electrode assembly, and single-cell electrolysis operations.
