As part of the Purdue Engineering Distinguished Lecture Series, Ted Sargent gave a lecture on "How can Research in Solar Energy Harvesting and Electrified Chemical Synthesis Contribute to Defossilization?" on Sept. 20, 2022.

While much progress has been made to scaling solar technologies in the field, there remains a massive further (costly, and energy-intensive) build to be completed to meet the global community’s ambitious net zero 2050 goals. Electrifying fuels and chemical synthesis is less far along, with the technologies for CO2 capise and utilization/upgrade still seeing ongoing development and the subject of fundamental scientific research. I will overview progress in each and then propose some targets and exciting directions for these intertwined topics.

Ted Sargent holds the rank of University Professor at the University of Toronto. He holds the Canada Research Chair in Nanotechnology and recently completed a term as Vice President – Research for the University of Toronto. His publications have been cited 80,000 times. 140 of his works have been cited 140 times or more. In 2021, it was announced that he will join Northwestern University as the Lynn Hopton Davis and Greg Davis Professor, with appointments in the Department of Chemistry and the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Hosted by College of Engineering and Davidson School of Chemical Engineering.

The largest engineering college in the top 5, Purdue Engineering anchors Purdue University as the “Cradle of Astronauts,” from College alumni Neil Armstrong to the first female commercial astronaut. Other trailblazers include Amelia Earhart, seven National Medal of Technology and Innovation recipients, and nine National Academy of Inventors Fellows. Our agricultural and biological engineering programs ranked No. 1 for more than a decade, and the College houses the world’s largest academic propulsion lab and the nation’s first all-digital nuclear reactor.
