Research Interests

Catalytic technology has been widely used in petrochemical processes to make not only oil, but also useful chemicals such as plastics, textiles and detergents. It is also used to remove emissions from cars and factories, and to clean and remove many environmentally harmful substances. Current catalyst technology is being developed to convert various renewable energy to be more efficient and to convert harmful environmental materials into useful. In the An Lab, we are developing catalysis technology that makes more valuable products from carbon dioxide and waste organic materials to solve the problems of global warming and environmental pollution.
