报告地点：怡山校区化肥催化剂国家工程研究中心1号楼701报告厅

报告内容简介：详述各种绿色氨合成途径面临的挑战和研发进展。介绍经典解离机理、新近发展的温和条件下N2缔合机理及化学链合成路线。阐述如何从氨合成反应机理出发指导新的催化剂设计，强调低压下N2缔合活化更适于与可再生能源（如太阳能、风能或潮汐能）耦合，可为绿氨合成提供了一条新的产业化途径。同时分析通过电化学和光化学方法直接大规模合成绿氨的可能性。最后对绿氨产业链的未来进行展望。

报告人简介：Edman Tsang is a Professor of Chemistry and Head of Wolfson Catalysis Centre at the University of Oxford，UK (https://www.chem.ox.ac.uk/people/edman-tsang). His main research interests are on materials and catalysis concerning energy and environment which include developments of catalytic, photocatalytic and electrocatalytic technologies for green chemistry, fine chemicals, cleaner combustion, energy storages, processes and production, ammonia and hydrogen technologies including fuel cells, etc. Particular expertise is in desigrand architecture of nanocatalysts and their in-situ/operando diffraction and spectroscopic characterization using large facilities, which can lead to understanding of catalytic surfaces and interfaces. He has contributed to the designs of Diamond I and Il beamlines and stations as community champions (user levels). He has about 450 publications and has won a number of international awards including IChemE award on iAc innovation in catalysis (2005), RSC Green Chemistry award (2012), RSC Surfaces and Interfaces award (2013) and RSC Industry-Academia Collaboration Award (2019), etc.
