Objective: Seeking a chemical/process engineer position in a globally

competitive company where I can maximize my skills and +10 years' process

development experiences in oil and pharmaceutical industries

Professional Experiences:

05/2012 to present, Research Scientist, NRCan-CanmetEnergy, Devon, Canada

. Designing in-situ bitumen upgrading process over water and/or oil-

soluble homogenous catalysts during SAGD

. Developing hydrotreating processes for upgrading petroleum, biomass

and bitumen derived feedstocks over novel catalysts, and

characterizing the catalysts by XRD, XPS, SEM, BET, TEM, TGA, TPR,

etc.

. Conducting lab and pilot plant experiments, processing and

interpreting experimental data. Develop research proposals, preparing

and writing research papers and reports

. Responsible for Process Flow Diagrams (PFD) and Piping and Instrument

Diagrams (P&ID), heat and mass balances, design basis memoranda (DBM),

equipment and instruments data sheets

08/2006-05/2012, Research Assistant, National Biofuels Energy

Laboratory, Detroit, USA

. Scaling up the transesterification process for biodiesel production

from bench scale to pilot scale

. Developing hydrotreating process to produce biofuel, from vegetable

oil. Single-stage hydrocracking process in a plugged flow reactor was

developed over the bi-functional catalyst

. Hydrotreating catalyst development and test by XRD, XPS, SEM, BET,

TEM, FTIR, etc. Analyze fuel properties and biofuel products from

biomass (algae oils, vegetable oils, animal fats) by GC-FID, FTIR, GC-

MS, ICP, HPLC-ELSD and HPLC-UV. Novel zeolite supported transition

metal carbide catalysts were developed

. Developing research proposals, preparing and writing research papers

and reports

. Managing and training interns & lab technicians
