Career Trajectory
Bio
2014 – Dec-2016 Post-doctoral at the Laboratory of Catalysis and Spectroscopy
(LCS)-ENSICAEN-France. (Confidential project with UOP Honeywell, USA).
2011 - 2014 PhD in Material Chemistry, under the supervision of Dr. Svetlana
Mintova at the laboratory of catalysis and spectroscopy, Ensicaen,
France. I was graduated with Dr. degree in June 2014.
My research was focused in the preparation of zeolite nanoparticles via environmentally friendly synthesis approach, i.e., without organic template at low temperature. In addition to explore the application of nanozeolites free of organic templates in catalysis, water purification, chemical sensing, optical devices, and oil oxidation processes.
During my PhD, I have performed a tremendous experimental work in order to follow up and understand the growth process of zeolites from template-free-precursor suspensions. The formation of several ultra-small crystalline materials with high crystalline yield at almost ambient conditions has been well investigated. As a result, I developed a new synthetic approach toward the design of the template-free nanosized FAU zeolites with exceptional properties: (i) extremely small crystallites (10-15 nm), (ii) very high crystalline yields (above 80 %), (iii) adjustable chemical composition, and (iv) excellent thermal stability leading to superior catalytic performance (Nature Materials, 2015, 14, 447-451). Another important feature is the excellent colloidal stability of the nanosized zeolites that facilitate a uniform dispersion on various supports for applications in catalysis, sorption, and optical coatings. The nanosized FAU crystals have great potential as catalysts or adsorbents to process more efficiently current and forthcoming, synthetic and renewable feedstocks in oil refining, petrochemistry and fine chemistry. (Nat Mater. 2015, 14, 447-451) and (Patent US20160325271 A1).
As the main work and contributions to the field of zeolite science:
• I have demonstrated that zeolite nanocrystals can be synthesized via using environmentally friendly synthesis approach (template free).
• The most comprehensive study to date was on the synthesis of template free ultra-small FAU type materials with Si/Al ratio from 1 to 2.2, resulting in zeolites X and Y, which are the most important materials for adsorption and catalysis, respectively.
• The phase transformation from metastable zeolites with low framework density, and large pore opening into more stable phases with high framework density from organic template free precursor suspensions was studied.
• The nanosized zeolites were used for preparation of membranes and thin films for further green applications: (i) removal of heavy metals from water, (ii) removal of pesticides, and (iii) preparation of optical devices (Bragg stacks sensors) for detection of harmful gases.
• The template-free nanosized zeolites were applied for purification and additivation of palm oil, thus increasing the lifetime with 47 %.
