Energy, Sustainability, & Environment

This category encompasses research aimed at addressing energy challenges, environmental impact, and sustainability. It includes the development of renewable energy sources, efficient energy storage, and technologies to reduce environmental pollution.

In chemical and biomolecular engineering, these efforts are crucial for developing processes and materials that support sustainable practices and mitigate environmental harm. Research in this area often involves designing new catalysts for energy conversion or systems for carbon capture and recycling.
