Projects
-
Biodiesel Production from Porcine Offal
-
- Analyzed an economic model to asses project capital investment needs of $90 MM USD, and determined that over a 20 year lifespan the plant has a net present value of $9.9 MM USD
- Awarded the Excellence in Chemical Engineering Senior Design Recognition for co-authoring a 100 page technical report extensively detailing both the design and the economics of the process
-
Bioreactor Design and Economic Analysis
-
Collaborated with a team of four to determine the kinetics of an unknown enzyme and design a transient batch reactor to maximize profit of the enzyme substrate reaction. Considering a variety of process variables, wrote a MATLAB program to model the operation of the batch reactor and its dynamics.
-
Design and Optimization of an Ammonia Plant
-
Collaborated with a team of five to estimate the capital investment, operating costs, and annual profit to produce 200,000 tons of ammonia a year. Wrote a technical report and a MATLAB computer program analyzing the effects of different process variables on the overall conversion of nitrogen and the overall profit of the plant.
-
Development of a Whole Cell-Based Biosensor
-
Collaborated with a team of three to theoretically engineer a cell with a genetic circuit composed of DNA sequences to encode for GFP to measure fucose levels in a cell. Designed a MATLAB computer program to execute the mathematical model that predicts the output signal of the fucose sensor.
Honors & Awards
-
AIChE Chem-E-Car National Qualifier
American Institute of Chemical Engineers Southwest Conference
Won 2nd place in a regional tournament for designing and building a shoebox-sized car powered and stopped by chemical reactions. Using a hydrogen fuel cell (starting mechanism), arduino circuit system, and iodine clock reaction (stopping mechanism), our team's car was able to stop within 10% of the target distance.
