Group publishes work aiding process monitoring in biomass upgrading

Congrats to group members Mohammed and Yeonjoon for their work on the prediction of bio-oil output composition being published in ACS Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering! Short Overview: In collaboration with NREL, we developed a preliminary simple ML model (random forest) capable of translating a mass spectra (MS) to a set of chemically-interpretable compositional descriptors, the […]

Dr. Kim Presents to Universitat Rovira i Virgili (CiTQ Multidisciplinary Seminar Series)

The overarching goal of our group is to develop new methods to extract sustainable fuels and chemicals from plants. Our approach has been to develop and apply computational tools to both biological and chemical conversion processes as part of an iterative ‘model-validate-predict’ design process for de novo catalysts. With its high carbon and hydrogen content, […]
