As the world grapples with the urgent need to transition from fossil-based energy and feedstock to more sustainable alternatives, electrochemistry is a key enabler of this transformation. While electrochemical energy storage (e.g., batteries) is well known, the electrochemical synthesis of high-value molecules via electrolysis is now gaining increasing attention. By leveraging electricity and abundant feedstock such as water and small waste molecules (e.g., carbon dioxide, nitrate ions), electrolysis offers a green and scalable alternative for hard-to-abate sectors of the chemical industry—enabling for example the sustainable production of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, ammonia, and beyond.
In this talk, I will present the cutting-edge research conducted at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT), where we bridge fundamental science and real-world applications. Our work spans from the rational design of novel electrocatalysts to the engineering of electrochemical devices. We explore both well-established processes, such as water splitting (i.e., the combination of Hydrogen Evolution Reaction, HER, and the Oxygen Evolution Reaction, OER), and emerging electrochemical pathways, including glycerol electrooxidation, CO₂ electroreduction, nitrate electroreduction, and electrochemical C–N bond formation.
Beyond the lab-scale, we are committed to translating our research into impactful industrial technology. I will showcase how our startup, Antares Electrolysis, is transforming laboratory-scale innovations (TRL 1–4) into 100 kW AEM-based electrolyzer stacks, paving the way for the next generation of sustainable chemical manufacturing.

Job Description
The project aims in the development of novel computational methodologies involving hierarchical approaches across scales an incorporating hydrodynamic interactions to study the flow of colloidal gels. A key aspect is the transfer of knowledge from partner institutes (Univ. of Vienna and Georgetown University) and its implementation in systems of common interest such as colloidal gels with emphasis on biosourced sustainable colloidal systems such as cellulose and lignin suspensions, experimentally studied within FORGREENSOFT. The computer simulations performed will allow for effective hypothesis testing, parameter space exploration, and formulation optimization. The new capabilities will allow for integrating AI approaches and experiments with practically relevant constraints. The candidate will work on codes, analytical tools, and predictions from models after that will be devoted to integration of experimental data and predictions for real materials.
