Pitchaimani Veerakumar

About

Dr. Pitchaimani Veerakumar obtained his M.Sc. (2004), M.Phil. (2007), and Ph.D. (2012) from the School of Chemistry, Madurai Kamaraj University, Madurai, India. After his doctoral research (2008−2012), he joined as a postdoctoral research fellow (2012−2016) the Atomic and Molecular Sciences, Academia Sinica (Prof. Shang-Bin Liu), Taiwan. Presently, he is jointly appointed as a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Chemistry, National Taiwan University (Prof. King Chuen Lin), Taiwan. His research interests include the synthesis and characterization of mesoporous porous carbon/silica and their catalytic developments, the preparation of high-surface-area porous carbons from biowastes for sustainable energy applications, and the synthesis and modification of novel porous carbon materials for applications as electrocatalysts in supercapacitors and electrochemical sensors.
