Electrochemical Engineering for Decarbonizing Energy Systems

This class goes over the fundamental electrochemistry in applied systems related to batteries, fuel cell, electrochemical fuel production, and supercapacitors. The class covers thermodynamics, kinetics, and transport related topics as they pertain to electrochemical system. The context of this class overlaps with fundamental principles taught in chemical engineering, material science, mechanical engineering, and electrical engineering. The class has several hands-on laboratory exercises to review electrochemical characterization techniques: electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, chronoamperometry, galvanostatic cycling, cyclic voltammetry.
