Werdegang

Berufserfahrung von Jan Kopyscinski

  • Current 6 years, since Jun 2020

    Associate Professor

    McGill University

  • 6 years and 5 months, Jan 2014 - May 2020

    Assistant Professor

    McGill University

    Department of Chemical Engineering Laboratory for Catalytic Process Engineering (CPE). Our group is engaged in the development and understanding of catalyzed processes and reactor engineering concepts dedicated to sustainable energy conversion technologies. We conduct research on many levels from the micro- (catalyst), meso- (reactor) to the macroscopic scale (process). In detail, we focus on the conversion of biomass/coal/CO2 into substitute natural gas (SNG) and other high valuable products.
