Working on genetic expression of microbial biocide resistances

I had worked as a Corrosion Microbiologist working for Broadsword Corrosion Engineering. I studied the correlation between microbial biofilm growth and corrosion rates with the end goal of producing results capable of modeling microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). I was also responsible for developing and successfully obtaining funding for further.

Thesis title: Calcium Nitrate Treatment of Oil Sand Tailings for Improved Densification and Reduced Greenhouse Gas Emissions.Protocols used during the research included gaseous headspace analysis using a Gas Chromatograph (GC) equipped with FID and ECD to measure methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2). Also practiced during.
