Dr. Wenhao Ren is a DECRA Research Fellow in the School of Chemical Engineering at Adelaide University (since 2023). His research focuses on the development of advanced catalysts and electrolyser designs for sustainable electrochemical technologies.
Dr. Ren earned his PhD in Materials Science and Engineering from Wuhan University of Technology, China, in 2017. He then undertook postdoctoral research at UNSW Sydney (2017–2020) and at EPFL, Switzerland (2020–2023), where he was awarded the prestigious Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship.
He has published over 60 high-impact, peer-reviewed journal articles in leading journals including Nature, Joule, Chem, Nature Communications, and Angewandte Chemie International Edition. His work has garnered more than 8,000 citations, corresponding to an h-index of 42 (Google Scholar). In addition to academic research, Dr. Ren has contributed to several industrial projects and is co-inventor on two PCT patents and three Chinese patents.
Dr Ren is dedicated to developing advanced electrocatalysts and electrolysis technologies for sustainable chemical manufacturing. He has made significant contributions to CO2 electroreduction, high-performance electrolyser design, and understanding electrocatalytic reaction mechanisms through advanced in situ/operando characterisation and interfacial engineering.
His research areas include:
- Energy-efficient CO2 electrolysis for value-added chemical production
- Advanced electrocatalysts and electrochemical interface engineering
- In situ/operando mechanistic studies
