2024 Catalysis Science & Technology symposium Jordi gained his undergraduate degree in Chemistry at the University of Barcelona in 2003. He then pursued his studies for a MRes and PhD with a FPU studentship in the group of Prof. Jaume Vilarrasa. In 2010, he received a postdoctoral fellowship to join the group of Prof. Donna Blackmond at The Scr...

Our latest work on Solar-driven Liquid Multicarbon fuel production using a standalone perovskite-BiVO4 artificial leaf is out now in
! 🎉Congratulations to Motiar Rahaman
and all co-authors for this great work!👏

Solar-driven liquid multi-carbon fuel production using a standalone perovskite–BiVO4 artificial leaf - Nature Energy Photoelectrochemical CO2 reduction to multi-carbon alcohols in standalone devices driven only by sunlight is challenging. Now Rahaman et al. integrate a copper–palladium catalyst in a perovskite–BiVO4 tandem device for solar-driven multi-carbon alcohol production.

💥Do not miss the latest work of Subhajit and Motiar on "Photoelectrochemical CO2-to-fuel conversion with simultaneous plastic reforming" available now on !
Congratulations to all co-authors👏

Photoelectrochemical CO2-to-fuel conversion with simultaneous plastic reforming - Nature Synthesis A versatile solar-driven hybrid photoelectrochemical platform has been developed for the simultaneous conversion of greenhouse gas CO2 and waste plastics into value-added fuels and chemicals with high efficiency and selectivity.

Have a look at Takashis' latest paper, in collaboration with Tijmen Euser's group, about the In-situ detection of cobaloxime intermediates during photocatalysis using hollow-core photonic crystal fiber microreactors

Happy to share our latest cover in Accounts of Chemical Research
ACS Publications: Solar Panel Technologies for Light-to-Chemical Conversion!

Accounts of Chemical Research Solar panels can not only produce electricity but are also in early-stage development for the production of chemical energy carriers. In this Account, we introduce solar panels known as "artificial leaves" and "photocatalyst sheets" for the solar-powered conversion of carbon dioxide and solid waste....

👏Join us in congratulating Chanon Pornrungroj for passing his viva! A huge thanks to the examiners, Dr Alex Forse and Prof. Van de Krol 🥳🥳
