Applied Catalysis and Spectroscopy group

The Applied Catalysis and Spectroscopy group (ACS) is part of the Bioenergy and Catalysis Laboratory (LBK) in the Energy and Environment Research Division (ENE) and of the Operando project at PSI.

Our research focuses on environmental catalysis, catalysis for energy conversion processes and operando spectroscopy.
