PROJECTS
ChemE Car San Diego, CA
Member November 2013 –June 2015
Main objective is to design and develop a miniature-sized vehicle that runs exclusively on chemical reactions
Foster real world problem solving, cultivation of skills involved in meeting deadlines, and development of camaraderie Pressure Propulsion Car Laboratory Technician September 2014 – April 2015
Analyzed the reaction of citric acid and sodium bicarbonate to drive the car powered by the pressure of carbon dioxide
Assembled the vehicle to carry the reaction vessel along with other necessary components to enter the competition Hydrogen Fuel Cell Car Team Member December 2013 – June 2014
Coordinated with team to figure out how to create pure hydrogen to run the motor powered by the hydrogen fuel cell
Successfully engineered a chemically powered vehicle with specific restraints to travel a certain distance resulting in top ten RETECH Engineering Inc.
Project Member
San Diego, CA
April 2015 – June 2015
Utilized ASPEN to design a thermochemical process that converts municipal solid waste to synthetic gas fuel for electricity
Performed economic, hazard and operability (HAZOP), and future funding analyses on the system we had designed
Analyzed our design in a report and created a presentation to our mentor and sponsor, RETECH Inc. University of California, San Diego San Diego, CA
Project Member
Fuel Cell for Decentralized Power
January 2015 – June 2015
Designed a Polymer Electrolyte Membrane fuel cell processing system with three main reactor systems using Aspen Plus
Evaluated process stream specifications for each reactor and economic analyses for our fuel cell generation system Water Treatment through Reverse Osmosis
Calibrated equipment and acquired data by changing different parameters for the analysis of the Reverse Osmosis membrane
Applied mass transfer fundamentals to our analyses on the effects of concentration and flow rate and created a report Silicon Low Vapor Chemical Vapor Deposition Reactor
Built a computation model of the Chemical Deposition Reactor model using Comsol to carry out simulations
Designed the reactor to have an effectiveness factor of 94.4%, deposition rate of 0.37 nanometers/sec, and high uniformity Plate Heat Exchangers
Operated the plate heat exchanger in steady state and batch conditions while varying the cold and hot water flow rates
Analyzed the acquired data to determine the heat transfer coefficient under different operating conditions pH Control Lab
Applied the linear time invariant (LTI) control system to pH control for a laboratory representation of an industrial bioreactor
Evaluated the system’s responses to the LTI controls with differing parameters and found the most optimal control setting Cooling Tower
Operated lab scale counter-current cooling tower under varying air/water flow rates to analyze its efficiency and performance
Determined that the efficiency and coefficient of performance were proportionate under varying flow rates MEMBERSHIPS
