Welcome to the Environmental and Energy Process Laboratory!
Understanding and Engineering of Complex Fluid Processing
Our research focuses on understanding complex fluid processing, where flow and deformation influence the microstructure, rheology, transport behavior, and performance of advanced energy and environmental materials.
We investigate these complex phenomena by combining rheological characterization, transport analysis, and data-driven process engineering.
Examples of complex fluids studied in our lab include:
Particle suspension
Battery electrode slurry
Catalyst ink
Polymer melt
