Chemical Reaction Engineering

The study of the kinetics of chemical reactions and the design of the reactors in which they take place.  Chemical reaction engineering is at the heart of virtually every process or system in which a chemical transformation occurs.  Our contributions impact the design of processes and systems, ranging from the molecular-to-the-macro- length scales.  Continuous-flow manufacture, flow chemistry, microchemical systems, and machine intelligence are major themes of our research.  We apply both computational and experimental techniques in each area in order to develop predictive models that impact chemicals, energy, healthcare, and sustainability.
