Sajid,Liu,Professor,"My research interests focus on advancing renewable energy technologies, with a strong emphasis on carbon dioxide capture using metal organic frameworks, solar energy conversion salts and storage solutions, including energy policy. With extensive experience in both academic and government lab settings, I've contributed to the development of innovative materials for fuel cell (PEMFC) performance. My work includes interdisciplinary collaboration on sustainable energy policies and the integration of electrocatalysts for PEMFC, microbes for MFCs. I've published in peer-reviewed articles and led projects aimed at enhancing energy efficiency and reducing carbon footprints. I am also visiting faculty at TAMU College Station (Dr Sarbajit Banerjee)",Professor||Faculty Affiliate,Energy Institute||Chemistry,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n223737b2
Ying,Li,Professor,"The research in our laboratory focuses on advanced materials and processes for sustainable energy and clean environment. Our group is specialized in synthesis of nanomaterials and multifunctional materials, catalysis and photocatalysis, carbon capture and conversion, natural gas utilization, solar photochemical and thermochemical processes, rechargeable batteries, membrane technology (wastewater treatment, desalination, drinking water purification), and aerosol engineering. For example, we have designed multifunctional nanomaterials to catalytically convert CO2 and water to syngas under solar irradiation, which can be further processed to produce liquid fuels. We also perform advanced microscopic and spectroscopic studies to understand materials properties, interfaces and surface chemistry.",Faculty Affiliate||Professor,Mechanical Engineering||Energy Institute,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n2b854905

Juan Carlos,Laya,Associate Professor,"My current research interests are in the broad area of carbonate sedimentology and stratigraphy. The topics I am focusing on include:
1) Carbonate reservoir characterization and modeling from modern and outcrop analogues, (interested in Caribbean islands, also Pacific and Indian Ocean islands)
2) Late Paleozoic carbonate petroleum systems and opportunities for exploration
3) Diagenesis and porosity evolution, using image analysis tools as a key for petrophysics.
4) The use of stable isotope geochemistry including clumped isotopes in understanding deposition, diagenesis and basin evolution.
5) Unconventional Carbonate reservoirs and basin analysis.",Faculty Affiliate||Associate Professor||Assistant Professor,Geology and Geophysics||Geology and Geophysics||Energy Institute,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n70ce65bb

Jenn-Tai,Liang,Professor,"Dr. Liang's major research focus is on developing promising uses for nanotechnology in enhanced oil recovery operations and other oilfield chemical applications in both conventional and unconventional reservoirs. Based on drug-delivery technologies from the pharmaceutical industry, his research group successfully developed a chemical delivery system that uses nanoparticles to entrap and protect the chemicals from the hostile underground environments. The current oilfield applications include delayed gelation for water shutoff and in-depth conformance control, delayed release of scale inhibitors to extend the treatment life time, wax and asphaltene inhibition for flow assurance, microbial enhanced hydrocarbon recovery, and fracture fluid cleanup.",Professor||Faculty Affiliate,Energy Institute||Petroleum Engineering,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/ndbb07e07
