Electrodeposition and modification of compact or porous (nano- and micro-structured) metals and alloys to obtain high surface electrodes for applications in catalysis and sensors.
3D catalytic systems obtained through the deposition of Pd, Pt or Rh nanoparticles onto Ni or Fe-Cr-Al alloy foams are effective toward both electrochemical processes and gas phase oxidation reactions.
Recovery and recycling of lead batteries: aim of this activity is to optimize recovery procedures of several type of lead batteries components (used, fresh, exhausted and refurbished oxides and pastels), to test the properties and optimise the recycling procedures.
