Kato Laboratory Aims

The laboratory is aiming for contribution on peaceful humankind life in the beautiful global environment through development of carbon neutrality technologies using energy technology. In particularly, global warming and resource depletion due to carbon dioxide emissions are becoming serious, and we are aiming for carbon neutral society by advancing energy storage, carbon recycling and hydrogen technologies. We are taking on the challenge of realizing new technologies that are unprecedented in the world. I am mainly studying the following three themes.

1. Carbon cycle energy system
2. Chemical heat storage and chemical heat pump
3. High efficiency hydrogen permeable membrane
