​Main characterization tools in the laboratory:
  • Hiden microreactor with GC/MS for catalyst characterization including reaction kinetics, pulse chemisorption and TPD/TPO/TPR. 
  • Nicolet FT-IR with Harrick accessory for in-situ studies 
  • High pressure Parr batch reactors for depolymerization of polymers, reacting testing, etc. 
  • Home-built Atomic-Layer Deposition vacuum chamber for controlled synthesis of heterogeneous catalysts
  • High-temperature furnaces for calcination and annealing of catalyst materials in a controlled environment

Computational Software
  • Quantum Espresso
  • Aspen Plus

Other characterization tools available at UC Riverside:
  • X-ray diffraction
  • X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy  
  • TEM and STEM-HAADF at CFAMM 
  • Solid-State NMR
