Professor / DirectorTechnologies for storing, separating and recovering gases such as hydrogen and methane, which are clean energies, as well as carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, are essential for environmental conservation. I am researching methods that use nanomaterials to develop efficient ways to separate, recover, effectively utilize, and reduce these gases under conditions of minimal environmental impact.

Recent Topics of Interests: Development and evaluation of materials for capturing carbon dioxide from air

Motto in Research or in Life: My motto is to have fun studying and experimenting while enjoying the excitement of academics and technology.

Hobby/Holiday: My hobby is playing pop music in a band with my college friends.
