Research Interests: Catalysis, CO2 conversion, hydrogen generation, syngas production, geopolymer, biofuels, emission control, flue gas absorbers
Prof Sharma’s group works on the several types of materials which have usefulness in CO2 conversion, CO2 adsorption, hydrogen production via electrochemical processes, and dry reforming process to generate syngas. The Group is also expanding into earth-abundant minerals for flue gas treatment and sewage treatment. These materials can also be used in the biofuel production. For industrial applications, we are now preparing novel compositions for CO2 methanation reactions.
