CHEM_ENG 441: Electrocatalysis

Description

This class presents the fundamentals of electrochemistry and applies these principles to a variety of electrocatalytic processes, especially those with relevance to sustainable chemical and fuel production or consumption technologies (ex. fuel cells, electrolytic green hydrogen production, carbon dioxide capture and conversion). The overall aim of the course is to provide the student with both the technical foundation and high-level overview needed to assess up-and-coming electrochemical energy conversion technologies.
