Welcome to the research group of Prof. Dr. N. Kornienko
Electrocatalysis for a Sustainable Future
Welcome to our research page. We are a driven, multidisciplinary research group at the University of Bonn and the University of Montreal interested in renewable energy research. We develop catalysts that convert abundant building blocks into green fuels and chemicals and innovate tools to understand these processes at a molecular level. The end goal is to bring forth sustainable routes to supplying the needs of current and future society.

AK Kornienko at the ECS in Montreal
Two of our group members - Farzaneh Farzinpour and Morgan McKee - took part in the Electrochemical Society (ESC) conference in Montreal together with Prof Kornienko and gave presentations there.
Farzaneh: Molecular cages accelerate electrocatalytic NO3- reduction to NH3
Morgan: Hydrophobic assembly of molecular catalysts at the gas-liquid-solid interface drives highly selective CO2 electromethanation
Nick: Heterogeneous Electrosynthesis of C–N, C–S and C–P Products Using CO2 as a Building Block
New publication from AK Kornienko
Shuai Chen's paper has been published in the journal Chem in March 2025. Shuai Chen was supported by Farzaneh Farzinpour and Nikolay Kornienko.
