Personal profile
Research
Martin Ek’s research concerns surface chemical processes of solid materials in catalysis and combustion, and tooling materials in metal cutting applications. The connection between surface structure and composition and their reactivity is investigated by means of in situ transmission electron microscopy with atomic resolution, real time imaging in reactive environments. Example research projects include carbon dioxide methanisation and oxidation of soot from biomass gasification; the overarching theme connects to the replacement of fossil with renewable raw materials.
Teaching
- KOKA20 & KOKA30: General, organic and inorganic chemistry. Introductory chemistry course for the biomedical engineering (BME) and engineering nanoscience (N) programs, respectively. Course coordinator and lecturer on general and inorganic chemistry.
