Remote work conducted from Hamburg, Deutschland Description: 1- Re-evaluation of the the total emission of a formaldehyde production plant (Methanol oxydation through iron-molybdenum catalyst) 2- Consultation on designing novel carbon capture processes for reducing the emissions to meet the new standards necessary for environmental protection

Title: Techno-economic comparison of CO2 sequestration technologies for the production of synthetic transportation fuels Description: -Different methods of carbon capture combined with multiple methods of CO2 synthesis into fuel viable for heavy duty combustion engines utilized in aviation, naval and long-distance land transportation. -Using AspenOne to simulate and economically evaluate various process of carbon capture for the purpose of utilization in the Fischer-Tropsch process.

Title: Evaluation of oil adsorption capacity of novel and technical Lignins under simulated GI conditions Description: 1. Evaluation of the potential edible oil adsorption capacity of several biopolymers under in vitro gastrointestinal conditions 2- Determination of the physio-chemical, structure and surface property of samples 3- Correlation of the obtained adsorption ratios with physio-chemical properties of the biopolymer samples
