ARC Centre of Excellence

Are you ready to turn waste into wonder? Join us for an adventure in the laboratory where you'll explore how to transform carbon dioxide (CO2) into valuable chemicals and fuels! Dive into the world of sustainable technology and see how science can solve real-world problems.

Meet the experts: Hear from our top researchers how they design electrolyser components, such as membranes and catalysts, to convert greenhouse gas CO2 into useful products.

Practical Learning : Discover how CO2 electrolysers work and see how a nanogenerator can create electricity from CO2. Engage with safe, live demonstrations that make complex concepts easy to understand.

State-of-the-Art Laboratories: Experience the cutting-edge facilities at UQ’s School of Chemical Engineering, and get inspired by the possibilities of a career in chemical engineering and sustainable technology.
