A world-leading catalysis research consortium of Oxford, Xiamen, Fudan and PolyU work in partnership with Johnson Matthey to accelerate global carbon neutrality goals using a novel formic acid strategy. Our team in PolyU will use carbon and hydrogen atoms from green formic acid to facilitate a heterogeneous hydroformylation route and deliver industrially important substances without using any fossil fuel sources. Leveraging our expertise in surface science and in-situ spectroscopy, as well as our strength in advanced characterisation facilities, we will pave the way toward new class of heterogeneous catalysts to make industrially important chemical processes clean and green. Aligning world-leading academic partners, this project provides a new level of innovation, focus and ambition to confront challenges in green catalysis and sustainable chemistry.
