Background to the Research
Jul 04, 2023 - As the research focus expanded, the group was later renamed the Electrochemistry for Energy & Environment (EEE) Group. We are currently interested in the research and development of metal-based electrocatalysts and photo-electrocatalysts for their application in electrolysers and dye-sensitized solar cells. These materials include extended…http://natural-sciences.nwu.ac.za/electrochemistry-energy-environment-eee-group/current-research-focus
Current Research Focus
Jul 04, 2023 - Our key research focus areas include electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, and photo-electrocatalysis. Electrocatalysis Electrolysers and fuel cells employ electrocatalysts at both the cathode and anode, which in the majority of cases employ a single platinum group metal (PGM), a combination of PGMs, or a combination of PGMs and base…http://natural-sciences.nwu.ac.za/electrochemistry-energy-environment-eee-group/research-leaders-and-publication-links

History to the Group
Jul 04, 2023 - The Atmospheric Chemistry Research Group (ACRG) was established in the 1990s by Prof JJ Pienaar with a specific focus on studying the reaction kinetics of atmospheric chemical species. In 2008, Prof PG van Zyl and Prof JP Beukes took over the management of the ACRG, during which the focus of research shifted towards ground-based in-situ…http://natural-sciences.nwu.ac.za/pure-and-applied-analytics-paa/program-and-special-issue

History to the Group
Jul 05, 2023 - The Laboratory for Applied Molecular Modelling (LAMM) was established in 2001 as an initiative of Prof Dolf Bruinsma, Prof Manie Vosloo and Dr Gerhard Lachman. In 2002 Prof Cornie van Sittert joined this effort. The primary aim of the LAMM initially was to give fundamental training to BSc Hons students in Chemistry, and training of…http://natural-sciences.nwu.ac.za/laboratory-applied-molecular-modelling-lamm/background-research
Background to the Research
Jul 03, 2023 - The LAMM specialises in computational catalysis, focussing on developing and applying theoretical models based on density functional theory to comprehend the fundamental chemistry and mechanisms of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. The group aims to identify catalysts that can be utilised to develop cost-effective renewable energy sources…http://natural-sciences.nwu.ac.za/laboratory-applied-molecular-modelling-lamm/current-research-focus
