Research Interests
Our research focuses on the production of drop-in fuels and high-value chemicals from
lignocellulosic biomass. Our group works with thermochemical processes such as catalytic
fast pyrolysis, hydropyrolysis, hydrothermal liquefaction, reactions in supercritical
fluids, and the thermo-catalytic conversion of oxygenated molecules into gasoline
and jet-fuels. We are particularly interested in the reaction kinetics and catalysis
of these processes.
