Samira’s research focuses on chemical process with a heterogeneous catalyst. CO2 hydrogenation over bi functional catalyst is the most promising direct technology to produce dimethyl ether as an alternative fuel which can capture CO2 from environment.
She would like to apply her expertise in characterisation analyses, Matlab coding and aspen plus simulation to an industry challenge.
