The Chemical and Electrochemical Technology and Innovation laboratory (CETI-LAB) was established by Prof. Gerardine (Gerri) Botte in August of 2019 when she joined the Chemical Engineering Department at Texas Tech University as Professor and the Whitacre Department Chair in Chemical Engineering. CETI’s mission is to integrate electrochemical engineering technology and fundamentals into chemical and biochemical processes to enable sustainable and distributed manufacturing of chemicals and materials, process intensification, energy/air/water sustainability, technologies for deep space exploration, and biomedical devices.

CETI-LAB is headquarted in the Maddox Engineering Research Center. It works closely with other academic institutions and government entities, including the Department of Defense, NASA, and The Electrochemical Society. The CETI-LAB has research in the following areas:

• Advanced Wastewater Treatment for Removal of Ammonia and Nitrates
• Chemicals and Hydrogen Production from Biomass
• Thermal Batteries (Molten Salt Batteries)
• Electrolysis of Solid Fuels for Hydrogen Production and Rare Earth Elements
• Sludge Revalorization
• Electrochemical Microbial Sensors
• Electrochemical Sensors And Graphene Applications
