Research Interests

My specialty is membrane materials, hollow fiber membranes, and process intensification via membrane applications. I am developing advanced materials for separation applications, primarily focused on nano-scale and MOFs, COFs, Zeolites, and metal materials. My research interests lie in the engineering of responsive separation materials allowing for simultaneous capture, sieving, conversion, or sensing of contaminants or resources in dilute streams. I have developed scalable technologies to generate nano-porous membrane materials and surface modifications toward resource recovery

Specialties: Hollow fiber Membrane fabrication, membrane processes, membrane reactors; advanced materials development; Microporous materials (MOF, COF…); interfaces engineering; Modeling;
