Currently, the inability to store hydrogen gas (H2) efficiently is a key barrier to its uptake as a zero-carbon fuel. Rux Energy, in partnership with the University of Sydney, developed new metal organic frameworks for the high-performance adsorption of hydrogen as a result of funding from the Innovative Manufacturing Cooperative Research Centre. Commencing in March 2021, the project developed new materials delivering 6x value of the funding received through successful outcomes.
Dr Chanel Leong is Head of Project Management and Operations responsible for managing Rux Energy R&D projects across Research, Manufacturing Engineering and Operations to ensure timely delivery of our product roadmap and funding milestones. Chanel has over five years experience in product development at biotech startups in Europe and Canada, focused on developing disruptive, nanomaterials-based technologies. Chanel completed a PhD Chemistry in Metal-Organic Framework Materials at the University of Sydney.
