Dr. Vivek Bagchi

Scientist-E (Associate Professor), Editorial Board Member (Energy), Scientific Reports (Nature)

Energy and Environmental Research Laboratory: We are working on the design and synthesis of new nanoscale materials for Energy Conversion/Storage, Catalysis and Environmental Remediation... Students from chemistry and physics background, can contact directly to the supervisor through email at bagchiv@inst.ac.in. For more details please visit the Personal Group page: www.vivekbagchi.in

Contact Information :

  • We are working on designing and synthesizing new nanoscale materials and structures with an emphasis on rational control of morphology, size, structure, composition and doping of metal carbides, nitrides, sulphides, phosphides, oxides etc on multiple scales for Energy and Environmental Applications.

     

    Energy Conversions:

    • Hydrogen Generation

    • Oxygen Evolution for Air Battery applications

    • Oxygen Reduction for Fuel Cell Applications

    Carbon-di-Oxide Reduction

    • Capture

    • Conversion: Electrochemical carbon dioxide conversion

    • Utilization

    Energy Storage

    • Supercapacitors

    • Metal-ion Batteries

    Environmental Remediation

    • Material Development for Air/Water Purification

    Catalysis

    • Artificial and Biomimetic Catalysis

    • C-H Bond Activation and Functionalization

  • Hydrogen is one of the cleanest forms of energy which can solve several issues, including environmental pollution and depletion of fossils fuels. Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), being a carbon-neutral process can reduce the carbon footprint in the earth’s atmosphere. Molybdenum based solids are among the most popular electrocatalysts, which have been explored extensively for HER processes as an alternative to Platinum or Platinum based materials.

     

  • Transition metal sulfides have been established as an excellent hydrogen evolution reaction catalyst but their oxygen evolution reaction behaviour is still less explored and needs further investigations. Oxygen evolution reaction has a huge potential for fuel cell and air battery applications. Ashish et al. have synthesized MoS2 nanolayers on N-doped carbon wrapped cobalt submicrospheres shows excellent OER catalytic activity.

  • The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is critically important in energy converting systems, and the advancement of a  catalyst that accelerates the process is vital. Here, an ORR electrocatalyst was developed by the stoichiometric addition of Co(II)  ions to a model composite (FePH) and termed as γ-CoFePH. The developed electrocatalyst shows a significant enhancement in  ORR activity with improved Eonset and E1/2 (3 mA cm−2) values, where E1/2 is −0.29 V as compared to −0.60 V for FePH, drifting toward Pt/C and exhibits a limiting current density of −6.3 mA cm−2 which exceeds the commercially available Pt/C. The γ- CoFePH also displays superior resistance toward methanol poisoning and stability of over 40 000 s retaining 83.6% of the current 11 density under alkaline medium.
