Welcome to the Energy and Particle Technology Laboratory at Carleton University. Our research drives innovations in particle engineering and nanotechnology for sustainable industrial applications, with a focus on energy conversion and storage, advanced material synthesis, hydrogen generation, and carbon dioxide conversion. We develop scalable process design tools for synthesizing nanoparticles with customized functional properties and explore how particle characteristics—such as size, morphology, and composition—affect their optical, sensing, and energy storage capabilities.

Our team is committed to creating disruptive technologies for sustainable hydrogen production and transforming greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane into valuable products, paving the way for cleaner, more efficient industrial practices. Through close collaborations with both academic and industry partners, we offer access to cutting-edge tools and strategies for reducing risk and accelerating the development of sustainable technologies, supporting both economic and environmental goals.
