Multi-Channel Potentiostat System for Electrochemical Characterizations

Abstract

This DURIP proposal requests a multichannel Potentiostat/Galvanostat system that will provide integrated capabilities of continuous electrochemical control, characterization, and monitoring of different engineering systems. This equipment will greatly improve the research capability and efficiency for 4 projects that are currently funded by or proposed to the Office of Naval Research. Through these projects, a team of 4 research labs from 2 universities will share the instrument to develop the next generation water treatment and energy production systems for the Navy and DoD using a novel microbial electrochemical technology platform. They will also make the instrument accessible to other DoD grantees. They are training dozens of scientists of the next generation through the ONR Naval Undersea Research Program University Lab Initiative (Code 332) and other programs, and will provide lab training to hundreds of more students. The instrumentation will also provide a new research and research-related education platform for state-of-the-art electrochemical analysis for new research capabilities, including power and energy, novel materials, synthetic biology, and others.
