The Geochemistry and Interfacial Sciences Group conducts fundamental and applied research on fluid - solid interactions that control (a) contaminant fate and transport and energy extraction in subsurface geologic environments; (b) electrical energy storage in
porous electrode materials; and (c) heterogeneous reaction rates, mechanisms and equilibria in general.

The
porous carbon performed better as conductive
electrode material than conventional carbon sources, often heat - treated coconut shells, coal or wood.
The researchers viewed the
porous, conductive
material as a perfect
electrode for supercapacitors or electronic circuits.
This capability involves 1) the development of catalytically active and corrosion resistant high surface area
electrodes for photoelectrolysis 2) fine tuning the porosity of
porous materials and 3) templating of
porous materials to yield freestanding ALD coatings that are fully tunable in density and porosity.
