Research interests

Vassilis Kyriakou scientific background includes chemical and electrochemical reaction engineering, materials science, heterogeneous catalysis, and solid-state electrochemistry. Vassilis' research group at ENTEG focuses on nanoengineered electrocatalysts for electrochemical membrane reactors and relevant processes towards sustainable chemical energy storage. Devices involve renewable-power fueled solid oxide electrolysers and fuel cells, protonic ceramic cell reactors and alkaline cells. Examples of processes are carbon dioxide and water electrolysis towards carbon monoxide and hydrogen, dinitrogen fixation to ammonia, methane conversion to ethylene and hydrogen and others.
