Dr. Botte and members of her research group are working on projects in the areas of electrochemical engineering, power sources and fuel cells, numerical methods, mathematical modeling, material science, and electro-catalysis. Their research consists in the application of chemical engineering principles to study fundamental problems associated with electrochemical technologies. They use experimental techniques combined with mathematical modeling to gain insight and understanding of electrochemical systems and to predict information required for their optimization and improvement. The work on numerical methods consists on the development of efficient subroutines to solve the equations that described the transport phenomena and thermodynamics that occur in electrochemical systems. Current research has to do with the understanding, the development, and the design of fuel cells, hydrogen generators, and advance battery systems.
