Advanced Research Cipher Neutron, University of Alberta Team Up for AEM Electrolyzer Membrane Catalysts

Cipher Neutron and Canada’s University of Alberta have collaborated to carry out advanced research in AEM Electrolyzer Membrane Catalysts which will prove useful for green hydrogen production. The research will be led by Dr. Shiva Mohajernia, Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering at the University of Alberta.

Toronto/Canada – Cipher Neutron and the University of Alberta in Canada have jointly announced that they have entered into discussions to collaborate on advanced research in AEM Electrolyser Membrane Catalysts. The Collaboration provides for the development of specialized Membrane Catalysts which can be used in the AEM Green Hydrogen Electrolyzers of Cipher Neutron to further increase the superior efficiencies of green hydrogen production achieved by Cipher Neutron. The Research by the University of Alberta is expected to be endorsed in part by Mitacs and Cipher Neutron, and the University of Alberta intends to continue with this prestigious Mitacs sponsorship.

Mitacs is a non-profit Canadian national research organization that, in partnerships with Canadian academia, private industry, and government, operates research and training programs in fields related to industrial and social innovation.

The University of Alberta is an ideal University in Canada to carry out this important research because it has renowned expertise in the advancement of the science of new membrane catalysts. The research will be led by Dr. Shiva Mohajernia, Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering at the University of Alberta.

Dr. Shiva Mohajernia is leading the Energy Materials (NRGMATs) research group at the University of Alberta. The primary focus of her group's research is centered around the design of nanomaterials and the precise modification of their surfaces with catalysts at an atomic-scale level for energy conversion applications such as those used by the AEM Green Hydrogen Electrolyzer of Cipher Neutron. The investigations by NRGMATs aim to unlock the exceptional catalytic performance that results from utilizing catalysts at the atomic level.
