AIChE at the University of California, Riverside, provides two projects. One project, Chem-E Car, is the currently active and main focus for project based learning. Our other project, which is currently in the startup phase, plans to convert wastewater to electricity.

About me:
I am a fourth-year chemical engineering student. I'm honored to serve on AIChE board for a second year in a row. I have been a part of Chem-E-Car for two years now and I am excited to look forward to contributing to the team's innovation and success this year.
Outside of school, I like to go to the gym, listen to music and crochet.

Chem-E-Car is a hands-on design competition where AIChE at UCR builds chemical-powered, shoebox-sized cars to travel precise distances. Competing at the AIChE Western Regional Conference, our team combines chemical, mechanical, and programming skills with the chance to advance nationally.

Microbial Fuel Cell Project

Microbial Fuel Cell Project

We wish to implement wastewater treatment using microbial fuel cells and have the outcome be electricity for a home. As this is a non-competition based project, the end goal is to fully develop this into a home with a plan to collaborate with HexHomes.
