Bimetallic Cooperation: Design of an Fe–Al Complex for Carbon Dioxide Activation

The proposed project aims to address the pressing challenge of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by leveraging synthetic chemistry. By designing a novel iron-aluminum complex for carbon dioxide activation, the project explores bimetallic systems to introduce innovative pathways for reducing carbon dioxide’s harmful environmental impact. The participating institutions, Imperial College London and the researcher’s home institution in Canada, stand to benefit in several ways. For Imperial College London, the project enhances its global research reputation, fosters international collaboration, and provides access to a highly motivated research intern. For the researcher’s Canadian home institution, it offers unique skills and knowledge acquisition, positioning the researcher as a catalyst for advancing expertise in sustainable chemistry and addressing climate change challenges. This project promises mutual enrichment, scientific advancement, and strengthened global research partnerships between the institutions and countries.
