I am a researcher in electrochemical energy systems with experience spanning reversible solid oxide cells, CO2 electrolysis, seawater electrolysis, and CO2 hydrogenation to methanol. My work has focused on developing cost-effective multipurpose ABO3 electrodes and investigating electrode//electrolyte interfaces under straining conditions. I have also explored intermediate-temperature ceria-based electrolytes for SOFCs, gaining valuable expertise in material preparation and ion transport behavior. More recently, I am focused on seawater electrolysis powered by intermittent energy sources and its integration with CO2 hydrogenation reactors for e-fuel synthesis. My expertise includes electrocatalyst synthesis, electrochemical testing, and advanced characterization, driven by a strong motivation to transform CO2 and H2O into valuable fuels and accelerate the clean energy transition.
