ChE Seminar Series Presents: Dr. Julie N. Renner Associate Professor, Department of Chemical Engineering, Case Western Reserve University Abstract: Key biomaterials applications (e.g., bioelectronics, drug delivery, and tissue engineering) rely on control of solid surface properties for success. Surface-bound peptide monolayers are a promising way to control surface properties because peptides are biocompatible, easily tunable, […]

ChE Seminar Series Presents: Marc T.M. Koper Leiden Institute of Chemistry Leiden University, Leiden, The Netherlands Abstract:  The electrocatalytic production of hydrogen through water splitting is a necessary approach for storing (excess) renewable electricity as chemical energy in fuels, and for making green hydrogen as a building block for the chemical industry. Here, I will […]

The College of Engineering is excited to host a Research Spotlight: Chemical Engineering event on May 16, 2023, at 10:00am ET.  We’d love to see you there. As a Research 1 university, Northeastern University students are exposed to some of the highest-quality research offerings in the United States. In this webinar, our Chemical Engineering faculty […]

Join Chemical Engineering Graduate Admissions at the Canadian Chemical Engineering Conference (CSChE 2023).

Our group focuses on the design and synthesis of new organic semiconductors based on low-cost and/or easily prepared starting materials.

In this talk, using CO2 reduction to gas and liquid products and O2 reduction to hydrogen peroxide as representative reactions, I will introduce the rational design of both catalytic materials and reactors towards practical electrochemical manufacturing of fuels and chemicals.

In this talk, I will trace my group's history in using molecular dynamics simulations to investigate conceptual links among molecular architectures, intermolecular interactions, and network structures and how they determine thermomechanical properties of polymerized materials that these applications demand.
