Institute of Chemical Engineering Sciences
Research and Development Institution
Greece
My expertise and activities include:
1. The development of components for various applications (PEMFCs, PEM-electrolysers, photo-electrocatalysis, lithium batteries). Research focuses on the synthesis and complete physicochemical and surface characterization of functionalized carbon allotropes, Pt or Ir- based electrocatalysts, non-PGM electrocatalysts and electrodes.
2. Liquid (RRDE) and solid-state electrochemistry including building of the experimental setups, assembly of the cells (half or full cells) and complete electrochemical evaluation of performance, operational phenomena and interfaces.
3. Design, construction and testing of separate or integrated modules, such as PEMFCs and PEM electrolysis stacks ranging between 200-1500 W. High pressure PEM electrolysis has been developed producing H2 under pressure at 80-100 bar.
My organisation
Institute of Chemical Engineering Sciences is dedicated to advancing the field of chemical engineering through innovative research, education, and collaboration. Our multidisciplinary team focuses on addressing global challenges such as sustainability, energy efficiency, and materials development.
FORTH/ICEHT is an academic independent institution which currently comprises 12 full time researchers and 21 collaborating faculty members. It publishes over 200 papers per year in international journals. Over the recent years, its publications have been receiving annually more than 10,000 bibliographic references.
