RESEARCH EXPERIENCE

The Solar Energy Activity Laboratory (SEAL) Research Program September – December 2015 Undergraduate Researcher Pasadena, CA

• Used various ratios of metal oxide onto the Fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) and compared the photocurrent response of standard iron oxide to other metal oxides to find an optimal metal oxide in substitute of current semi-conductor materials. PREVIOUS PROJECTS

Biofuel Chemical Plant Design Fall, 2017-Winter, 2018 Santa Barbara, CA

• Used mass balances and reaction kinetics in Matlab to simulate the preliminary design of higher- order alcohol production, and used HYSYS to determine the optimal conditions of proposed design.

• Applied pressure swing to separate the azeotrope between bioethanol and butyraldehyde in distillation system design.

• Used Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) for the economic analysis of 10-year plant lifespan. 2,6-Xylenol Chemical Plant Design Spring, 2018

Santa Barbara, CA

• Used reaction kinetics of Packed Bed Reactor and mass balances in Matlab to simulate the production of starting material (2,6-xylenol) for polyphenylene oxide (PPO).

• Used process control to monitor and adjust the physical conditions based on simulation results, and applied heat transfer to accomplish heat integration for the proposed design.

• Applied DCF and related economic parameters to evaluate the profits of proposed design. TECHNICAL SKILLS
