North Carolina State University received a $299,966 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation to support research related to chemical-looping catalysis using thin-film perovskite oxide materials. The award was made under the NSF's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) for the period of April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2023.

Specifically, the university will use the funding to conduct thin-film preparation and surface characterization of iron- and manganese-containing perovskite oxides promoted by alkali metal molybdates. The research is intended to evaluate these materials for applications in chemical-looping catalysis. The NSF Engineering program aims to improve innovation and excellence in engineering research, and this award will support the university's work developing novel catalyst formulations.
