Yokomori Laboratory - Exploring the Potential of "Combustion," Including the Development of Combustion Synthesis Methods for Functional Materials

The Yokomori Laboratory at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Science and Technology, Keio University, conducts research activities centered on the keyword "combustion."

Many of the recent global concerns, such as environmental issues like global warming and the problem of fossil fuel depletion, are largely caused by "combustion," making research to improve combustion-related technologies extremely important. On the other hand, while combustion is a technology that has been used for a long time, new fields such as the combustion synthesis of functional materials like nanomaterials are also being pioneered.
