Catalysis Research Group

Aims and Objectives

The group has been working in the Catalyst Laboratory which is established in our center in 2018, carries out R&D activities on the discovery of new catalysts for the conversion of syngas, obtained from gasification, into chemicals such as synthetic natural gas, liquid fuels, monomers (ethylene, propylene) and methanol, the determination of the catalytic performance of catalysts and their commercialization.
