Накратко на български

Въглеродни материали и полупроводници се използват за създаване на електроди, които превръщат слънчева светлина, вода и въглероден диоксид в зелен водород или химикали. Това помага за разработването на по-чисти технологии за енергия и намалява зависимостта от редки суровини.

Laser-patterned hierarchical porous electrodes for the foreseen Iontronics technology

LASERION addresses one of today’s central energy challenges: how to convert sunlight, water and carbon dioxide into clean fuels and chemicals with minimal use of critical raw materials. The project focus has shifted to photoelectrocatalysis, a technology that combines light absorption and electrochemistry to drive reactions such as hydrogen production and CO2 conversion at lower energy demand and with higher selectivity. In this approach, light generates charge carriers in a semiconductor while an external circuit steers their direction and reaction pathways. The overall objective was to design and understand new carbon-based hybrid materials and electrodes that can operate in realistic electrochemical conditions and serve as building blocks for “Solar-to-X” systems, where “X” stands for green hydrogen, syngas and value-added chemicals. LASERION specifically explored carbon nitride semiconductors, bio-based binders and inorganic benchmarks to build advanced interfaces that are metal-lean, fluorine-free and compatible with future environmental regulations. At the same time, the project provided a small high-throughput electrochemical platform of six half-cells and to provide advanced training in electrochemistry, spectroscopy and device engineering. By combining sustainable materials with rational device design, LASERION contributes to the development of cleaner, more efficient energy-conversion technologies that can support climate-neutrality targets, reduce dependence on imported critical materials and pave the way for greener industrial processes in Europe.

Цел на проекта

LASERIONs main objective is to develop robust and efficient hierarchical porous laser-patterned film (LPF) carbonized electrodes (CE) for unprecedented ion sensing by electrochemistry. LASERIONs ambition, aligned with the EU Green deal 2050 carbon neutrality roadmap and United Nations goal 9, is to contribute simultaneously to climate neutrality while proposing a new technological path to reinvent the modern electronical industry. For that purpose, the research fellow (RF) will conjointly with the host scientist, prepare sustainable electrodes through valorization of bio-based polymers via three material engineered strategies centered at the CO2-laser carbonization, namely porogen agents (before, WP1a), controlled atmosphere (during, WP1b), and conductive polymers (after, WP1c). The resulted carbonized based electrodes, using lignosulfonates as the carbon source, will be characterized with an extended portfolio of routine (WP3a) and advanced (WP3b) techniques listed in section 3.1. The same LPF-CE will be tested via electrochemistry in a newly engineered designed cell (WP2). Such electrochemical tests are divided in two configurations: standard (WP4a) three-electrodes cell (working, counter, and reference) and a more sophisticated cell (WP4b) with an additional potentiostat to provoke an electromagnetic stimulus. Combinedly, WP5 deals with training, communication, dissemination, and strategic network building. Finally, WP6 is dedicated to project management, specifically in the technical, administrative, financial, and IPR aspects. By accomplishing these ambitious work packages, tasks, and objectives towards unprecedented LPF-CE evaluating their ion sensitivity capacity in liquid using a new custom bipotentiostat electro-cell, LASERION attempts to provide a qualified training to the RF while delivering a potential technological readiness level 3 with an untapped modern CO2-laser pyrolysis conversion of lignin-based pulping residues for a needed circular economy.
