Angewandte Chemie publishes ECUST New Progress on Environmental Resource Utilization

Recently, a collaborative research team led by Professor Xing Mingyang from the School of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering and Associate Professor Fu Pengbo from the School of Resources and Environmental Engineering achieved significant progress in large-scale piezoelectric catalytic hydrogen production from seawater. The related article was published in Angewandte Chemie International Edition under the title “Hydroenergy Inspiring Large-Scale Piezoelectric Catalysis for Seawater Hydrogen Evolution”.

The article is first authored by Liu Wenyuan, a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Chemistry ECUST, with ECUST as the sole academic affiliation, and co-corresponding authored by Professor Xing Mingyang and Associate Professor Fu Pengbo. The research received guidance from Academician Zhang Jinlong (European Academy of Sciences) and Academician Wang Hualin (Chinese Academy of Engineering), and was supported by the Feringa Nobel Prize Scientist Joint Research Center, the Frontier Science Center for Materials Biology and Dynamic Chemistry (Ministry of Education), and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) for Distinguished Young Scholars.
