Welcome to the Catalysis group at the University of Udine!

The Catalysis Group at the University of Udine focuses on the design and development of innovative materials for advanced catalytic processes supporting the transition towards clean energy and a more sustainable environment. Advanced catalytic materials and processes play, and will continue to play, a key role in enabling sustainable energy technologies and protecting the environment. A major research effort within our group is therefore devoted to the development of novel, robust catalytic materials capable of contributing to the reduction of the carbon footprint and to the transition towards more sustainable chemical processes. Our research focuses particularly on the activation and conversion of small molecules using advanced catalytic materials prepared through innovative synthetic strategies and thoroughly investigated using state-of-the-art characterization techniques. By linking materials chemistry, surface science, chemical engineering and catalysis, we aim to uncover fundamental structure–property–reactivity relationships and translate this knowledge into new catalytic concepts with real potential for sustainable technologies.
