Aruna K Kunhiraman-2.png

Prof. K. K. Aruna

Rathinam Research Center, Rathinam Technical Campus

Research Area: Electrochemistry, materials science, fuel cells, batteries, supercapacitors, Green hydrogen generation


Speech Title: Materials Towards Electrochemical Energy storage and conversion systems

BIO: Dr. K. K. Aruna is an electrochemist passionate about exploring materials for energy storage and conversion systems. She was awarded Ph.D degree in Nanoscience and Technology (Interdisciplinary Physics), from PSG Institute of Advance Studies, Coimbatore, Tamilnadu, INDIA for her thesis entitled “Novel Three-Dimensional Nanocarbon Hybrid Networks Modified with Noble and Non-Noble Electrocatalyst for Efficient Hydrogen Evolution Reaction”. Her research is focused on tuning, engineering and analyzing novel electrocatalyst materials for energy storage and conversion systems namely water electrolyzers for H2 production, Fuel cells for energy generation, supercapacitors, and batteries as charge storage devices. She has published 25+ papers in peer-reviewed international journals. She serves as a reviewer for some reputed journals like Carbon, International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, Journal of Materials Research, etc. She also leads as Guest Editor for few special issues like ‘Measurement Sensor’, ‘Current Materials Science’, ‘Green Materials’ etc.  She has experience in developing membrane electrode assemblies for electrolyzer and fuel cells. Also, she works on coin cell assembly for batteries and supercapacitors, in collaboration with national-level institutions and companies. She takes immense pleasure in working individually and with a team where knowledge can be shared and ideas can be explored. She is profoundly interested in transporting research works to the technological readiness level (TRL), which can be channeled toward the commercialization of products. She runs a few government-funded projects namely from the Aeronautical Research and Development Board, UGC-DAE, IIT-TIH, and BRNS as Principal Investigator and Co-Investigator. She is actively involved in national and international level collaboration for clean and sustainable energy applications. She is an awardee of “Short-term visiting-scientist from the University of Bayreuth, Alexander Von Humboldt Centre for Excellence, Germany, and also from the Indian National Science Academy (INSA).
