Projects

Selected Projects

Public research, independent methods, and scientific tools connected by a practical interest in technology development.

A Connected Body of Work

A public research map informed by publication records and the live Google Scholar profile.

Energy Conversion

Published research connects catalyst structure and active sites with electrochemical performance.

Selected peer-reviewed papers on Fe–N–C fuel-cell cathodes and methanol electrooxidation are linked below.

Materials And Water

Published materials research provides a foundation for thinking about chemical activity, stability, and practical treatment constraints.

A published photocatalytic polymer-nanocomposite study anchors the water-treatment example.

Scientific Decisions

Independent examples show how assumptions, calculations, and evidence can be organized around development choices.

Cat Lab and the illustrative methods are directly inspectable; they are not client-project claims.

Published research

Catalyst Evidence For Energy Conversion

Coauthored research on Fe–N–C fuel-cell cathodes provides a concrete example of connecting catalyst chemistry, active-site structure, and performance evidence.

Evidence & output

The linked publication is the evidence. A product decision would also need application-specific durability, integration, manufacturing, and cost information.

  • Energy conversion
  • Electrocatalysis
  • Evidence review

Published research

Materials Choices For Water Treatment

Coauthored photocatalytic nanocomposite research offers a starting point for examining how material design relates to treatment performance.

Evidence & output

The publication supports a materials-research discussion. Treatment-system economics, lifetime, and field readiness require their own evidence.

  • Water treatment
  • Materials
  • Development questions

Independent illustrative method

From A Technical Idea To A Testable Decision

A general method for comparing catalyst or chemical-process options by application needs, assumptions, evidence gaps, and the next useful test.

Evidence & output

An example decision structure and evaluation questions, rather than a claim about a completed commercial engagement.

  • Technology strategy
  • Development risk
  • Test planning

Independent scientific tool

Cat Lab: Calculations You Can Inspect

The first working module connects catalyst-bed geometry, inventory, flow, space velocity, and optional pressure drop.

Evidence & output

V1.0 provides traceable calculations today. A broader scientific computing platform is the future direction, not a description of modules already available.

  • Scientific computing
  • Reaction engineering
  • Transparent assumptions
