Description
The overall goal of the project is the development of a first-of-its-kind, multiparametric instrumentation equipment integrating microfluidic electrochemical cells and advanced microelectrodes materials, and being compatible with other in situ analysis technologies such as UV-Vis, FTIR/IR, Raman, NMR and ultra-fast laser spectroscopy. The main vision is to develop a powerful, yet flexible research tool, which is open to customization of all its components, experimental conditions and downstream analysis by users. We envision that such tools will revolutionize laboratory analysis in the future.
A new, interdisciplinary, international research group was formed to implement this project and to achieve a high synergy of competences. The group is based on a consortium of the leading company redox.me (Poland), Institute Physical Chemistry PAS (Poland), Gdańsk University of Technology (Poland) and SINTEF (Norway).
The project provides an excellent environment for training and educating young researchers, and a platform for gaining early career experience within the multidisciplinary, innovative industrial research settings.
The project will promote long term collaborations between Poland and Norway: parts of the future product can be manufactured in Norway and the consortium will identify suitable partners to develop strategies for future joint grant applications.
