Environment

As the world faces growing challenges from climate change, pollution, and resource depletion, the demand for innovative, interdisciplinary solutions has never been more pressing. Among these concerns, water pollution—particularly from emerging contaminants such as microplastics and PFAS—poses serious risks to ecosystems and public health.

At MC2E, our work bridges these critical areas by developing advanced, sustainable materials that tackle environmental pollution. We are pioneering the design of 2D MOF-based heterostructures with magnetic properties, which offer multifunctional capabilities in pollutant removal, catalysis, and resource recovery. In parallel, we are creating next-generation electrocatalysts to enhance the performance and durability of hydrogen production systems, particularly those operating in water and wastewater environments. Our aim is to deliver scalable, cost-effective solutions that drive impactful change—enabling a cleaner, more resilient future for both the environment and the energy sector.
