[Aspuru-Guzik group list] [Aspuru-meetings-list] Group Meeting, Mar. 5, 2:30pm

Hi Everyone, Tomorrow Changwon will be giving us group meeting. Please see below for the title and abstract of his talk. Cheers, Jennifer ------------------------------- Title: Molecular Mining for Grid-Scale Redox Flow Battery — A Fun-filled Journey for the Discovery of Unknown Quinone Molecules How do we store global renewable energy when there isn't blowing wind or shining sun? Our research team is developing a special type of battery called aqueous redox flow battery. This is promising for storing vastly large amounts of energy because energy is stored in liquids that can be pumped into big holding tanks which are environmentally friendly and very inexpensive. This talk will discuss our molecular mining and high-throughput process screening to rapidly predict the key functionalities of candidate molecules called quinones for such flow battery. Our computational design and discovery frameworks operate by reducing the huge search space to explore and guide processes. In addition, this talk will go over our successful strategies and discuss what we are actively doing now, as well as future work in advanced all-organic molecule based flow batteries. _______________________________________________ Aspuru-meetings-list mailing list Aspuru-meetings-list(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu https://lists.fas.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/aspuru-meetings-list
