PhD, University of Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa (Chemical Engineering)

Project

Direct Air Capture of CO2 and Delivery to Photobioreactors for Algal Biofuel Production

The goal is to fabricate and develop a Direct Air Capture (DAC) system comprised of solid amine monolith adsorbents that will integrate with existing photobioreactor (PBR) technology to deliver CO2 for algae cultivation.
