In recent years\, Prof. Hu’s g roup has focused on developing novel materials for clean energy and enviro nmental applications through the discovery of new chemical reactions. In t his talk\, he will highlight:\n\n(1) the design and synthesis of three-dim ensional graphene materials and alkali-metal–embedded carbon nanowalls der ived directly from CO and CO2\, demonstrating excellent performance in sol ar cells\;\n\n(2) the development of superstructured materials for use in fuel cells and supercapacitors\; and\n\n(3) the creation of advanced funct ional materials from fallen leaves\, with applications as biodegradable pl astics and photocatalysts.\n\n \n\nBio:\n\nProf. Yun Hang Hu holds the dis tinguished title of University Professor and is the Charles and Carroll Mc Arthur Endowed Chair Professor at Michigan Technological University. He is an international Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering (CAE) and a Fellow of six major scientific societies (AAAS\, ACS\, APS\, AIChE\, ASM International\, and RSC). He serves as Editor-in-Chief of Energy Science & Engineering (a Wiley journal) and sits on the editorial advisory boards of ten journals published by leading publishers including Nature Portfolio \, Wiley\, Elsevier\, Springer\, ACS\, and RSC.\n\nProf. Hu has received n umerous national and international honors and awards\, such as the Rudolf A. Erren Award from the International Association for Hydrogen Energy (IAH E)\, the Outstanding Science & Innovation Award from the Chinese Associati on for Science and Technology in the USA (CAST-USA)\, and multiple awards from the American Chemical Society (ACS).\n\nProf. Hu has authored over 33 0 publications in prestigious journals and delivered more than 200 invited lectures\, including over 70 plenary and keynote presentations—notably th e Plenary Lecture at the Opening Session of the 255th ACS National Meeting . His research focuses on nanomaterials and superstructured materials for sustainable energy and environmental applications\, including energy devic es (solar cells\, batteries\, supercapacitors\, and fuel cells)\, catalysi s (thermal\, photo-\, and thermo-photocatalysis)\, hydrogen production and storage\, CO2 and methane conversion\, and the transformation of waste in to valuable materials.\n DTSTART:20251125T180000Z DTEND:20251125T193000Z LOCATION:OM 10\, Maass Chemistry Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B8\, 801 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Chemical Society Seminar:Yun Hang Hu- Advanced Materials for Sustai nable Energy and Environment: From Nanomaterials to Superstructured Materi als URL:/science/channels/event/chemical-society-seminaryu n-hang-hu-advanced-materials-sustainable-energy-and-environment-368856 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
