Prof. Aligholi Niaei
Professor of Chemical Engineering
Prof. Aligholi Niaei is a leading expert in chemical engineering, specializing in energy conversion and storage technologies. His research focuses on the development of advanced catalytic materials and processes for sustainable energy applications, including supercapacitors, hydrogen production via water splitting, electrocatalysis, and photocatalysis. He has also made significant contributions to catalytic dry reforming and DeNOx processes, particularly in selective catalytic reduction (SCR) for NOx removal using hydrogen, ammonia, and hydrocarbons.
A central aspect of his work is the design and characterization of efficient and durable catalysts for energy and environmental applications. By combining expertise in heterogeneous catalysis and catalyst deactivation, he develops robust materials capable of operating under harsh conditions. His research contributes to advancing renewable energy systems and environmentally friendly technologies.
