Laboratory Assistant
CurrentWorked with Dr. Johannes Schwank to develop catalysts for a solar-powered, distributed ammonia reactor pathway. Synthesized Ru/SiO2 and Ru/TiO2 nanoparticles with wet impregnation, incipient wetness, and deposition precipitation. Characterized catalysts using TEM, SEM, XRD, DRIFTS, and reactor testing. Presented findings at symposiums and weekly meetings with lab managers.
