Dr. Yavuz and team develop sustainable and adsorbent nano and porous polymermaterials to address global challenges in the environment, particularly those relatedto CO2, water and methane. Current projects include dry reforming of methane, CO2capture with tethered amines, CO2 conversion to cyclic carbonates, water capturefrom air, methane & H2 storage in porous polymers, electrocatalytic water splitting,electronic waste recycling, seawater mining, and the removal of micro contaminantsfrom water — advances with wide-ranging industrial applications in support ofsustainable, circular carbon objectives. ​
