Viswanathan S. Saji is a Research Scientist-II/Associate Professor at the Interdisciplinary Research Center for Advanced Materials, King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals (KFUPM), Saudi Arabia (2022 – present). Before that, he was as a Research Scientist-III at KFUPM (2018-2022), Endeavour Research Fellow at University of Adelaide (2014) Australia, Research Professor at Korea University (2010-2013), Senior Research Scientist at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (2009-2010), Postdoctoral Researcher at Sunchon National University (2009), Research Professor at Chosun University (2008-2009), Postdoctoral Researcher at Yonsei University (2007-2008), and Research Associate at Indian Institute of Science (2005-2007) and Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (2004-2005). Dr. Saji received his M.Sc. (1997), M.Phil. (1999) and Ph.D. (2003) degrees from the University of Kerala, India. He has authored more than 100 journal publications and contributed 13 books and 22 book chapters. He has over 50 international/national conference presentations, invited talks and seminars, and has been awarded several fellowships and funding. His current research interest lies in electrochemistry and energy materials.
This book discusses research and development on various degradation types and their mitigation approaches in electrochemical energy storage and conversion (EESC) devices, such as fuel cells, batteries, and supercapacitors, essential to realizing carbon neutrality and a sustainable energy economy. Corrosion and degradation of the components remains a major threat to EESC devices' long-term durability, and at present there is an insufficient number of book-length treatments of this topic. This volume brings together the most up-to-date findings from the research literature.
