I am an assistant professor of Graduate School of Energy Science, Kyoto University.
I am a member of The Japan Institute of Metals and The Iron and Steel Institute of Japan, etc.
My research interests evolve around the study of not only materials science and energy social engineering,
which mainly aim the contribution to environmentally-sound society.

As for the former, my research activities focus on several interconnected areas:
(i) Photocatalyst using titanium or tungsten oxide etc.,
(ii) Catalyst using carbide materials,
(iii) Carbon dioxide fixation cycle,
, which materials are produced or modified by using chemistry (sol-gel method and heat treatment, etc.),
mechanochemistry (mechanical alloying/milling and repeated pressing and/or rolling) and RF sputtering, etc.
Interestingly, our group recently found the magnetic field effects on the photo-catalytic properties.

As for the latter, my research activities recently focus on the relationship between the direct,
indirect and hidden material and energy flows relating to human activities and the environmental impacts.
Especially, I recently constructed the framework of “Urban-ore TMR” in order to compare the elemental grade
in urban ore in urban mine with that in natural ore in order to propose waste and resource management strategies.

Furthermore, I am very interested in traditional and ancient metallurgy, such as traditional steelmaking,
smithery and craft. (under construction)
