The Energy Process Engineering Lab develops energy technologies that help solve resource and environmental problems. Targeting energy materials, semiconductor materials, and manufacturing processes, the lab makes use of computer simulation and AI. Covering everything from fluids to solids and from the nanoscale to the macroscale, the lab uses first-principles calculation, machine learning, and statistical physics to explain phenomena. The lab aims to achieve an integrated approach, from materials design to the optimization of manufacturing processes.

The Materials Process Engineering Lab develops material fabrication processes that bring out functions by controlling the shape and structure of materials. The plastics, ceramics, and metals around us are used in forms such as blocks, fibers, particles, and films. To obtain highly functional materials, it is important not only to choose the substance but also to control its shape and structure appropriately. In addition to making materials such as porous materials and fine particles, the lab works on surface modification of materials and on developing meat alternatives from plant-based ingredients.

The Process Systems Engineering Lab conducts research on the theme of "synthesis and optimization of systems." There is growing demand for production systems that can make high-value products while saving resources and energy. Process systems engineering is the discipline that studies methodologies for designing and operating such systems rationally. Through advancing the field, training people, and returning research results to society, the lab aims to contribute to the development of Japanese industry.

The Environmental Process Engineering Lab aims to establish "environmentally harmonious processing," which rationally integrates the links among resources, energy, and the environment. The lab works on developing new methods of material conversion and organizing the engineering behind them into a systematic framework. It is also developing energy-efficient microreactors and other devices, and making environmentally friendly plastics with the whole life cycle in mind. It also explores ways to use biomass, which is renewable and widely available, without waste.

The Green Process Engineering Lab researches technologies that reduce environmental impact, aiming for a carbon-neutral society. It works on technologies that produce hydrogen from hydrocarbon resources while fixing the carbon, and on hydrogen utilization technologies using carbon-supported metal catalysts that the lab developed itself. It is also developing new energy-saving processes that use active radical species. Process development proceeds through both experiments and simulation.
