Beyond Biogas for Upcycling wastes and residues in a Bioeconomy Approach

Increasing climate challenges and increased population has pushed to solutions away from fossil resources and instead to renewable resources. Biomass is a renewable resource and can be used to substitute products from petrochemical processes. For many years biomass was seen as a potential resource for...

Design Strategies for Organic Semiconducting Materials for Various Organic Electronics

Design Strategies for Organic Semiconducting Materials for Various Organic Electronics   Over the past two decades, organic electronics, such as organic field-effect transistors, organic light emitting diodes, organic photovoltaic cells, and organic photodetectors have recently received significant attention for use in flexible low-cost electronics applications.  The molecular design of organic semiconductors is a useful strategy for high performance organic light emitting diode, organic thin film transistor, and organic solar cell because tailoring the molecular structures can dramatically tune the properties of the organic semiconductors. In this presentation, I will introduce the characteristics of the conjugated materials designed and synthesized for various organic electronics applications....

Radiation, radioactivity, and radiological impact of Fukushima accident and its treated water

Contruction technology in the ocean

Detection technology of airborne bioagents for health and environment

This presentation explores bioaerosols, defined as airborne biological particulate matter containing a variety of allergens such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, pollen, house dust mites, and dander. Bioaerosols can cause a variety of infectious and environmental diseases, including atopic dermatitis, opportunistic infections, SARS, novel influenza, and...

Duality of interphases in batteries and catalysts revealed by cryo-EM

Duality of interphases in batteries and catalysts revealed by cryo-EM   Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) won the Chemistry Nobel Prize in 2017 for its ability to elucidate the molecular-scale structure of important biomolecules (e.g., the spike protein of COVID-19), which has had a transformative impact on structural biology and medicine. The Li group at UCLA is leading efforts to leverage this powerful technique to have a similar impact in the field of materials science and renewable energy. These efforts have led to significant breakthroughs in our understanding of batteries (Science 358, 506, 2017; Science 375, 66, 2022) and electrocatalysts (Nature Energy 8, 138, 2023), which represent important clean energy technologies necessary for mitigating climate change. New insights then inform parallel efforts in materials innovations (Nature 620, 86, 2023) that will enable transformative technologies....
