David Hibbitts, Ph.D., an assistant professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering (ChE), is leading a three-year, $672,000 grant from the National Science Foundation from the Chemistry Division titled: Separating Electronic and Geometric Effects in Compound Catalysts: Examining Unique Selectivities for Hydrogenolysis on Transition Metal Phosphides. In this project, Dr. Hibbitts will collaborate with David […]

David Hibbitts, Ph.D., an assistant professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering (ChE), was awarded a $450,000 grant from the National Science Foundation to explore the role of water in Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis (FTS) catalysis, a chemical reaction that converts carbon monoxide and hydrogen into water and hydrocarbons, and how to use those discoveries to create […]
