Energy Conversions and Storage

Research and development in energy conversion and storage are becoming increasingly important due to significant energy demand for economic and social development. Examples include fuel cells, supercapacitors, and batteries. The overarching theme of research in this area is focused on fundamental understanding and optimization of engineering processes in electrochemical devices such as batteries (Zawodzinski, Guo, Mukherjee), supercapacitors (Mukherjee, Khomami), and fuel cells (Zawodzinski, Counce, Paddison, Guo).
