ALDELHAKIM ELMHAMDI
Prior Degree: Inorganic chemistry, PhD
Joined Group: March 2020
Research: My Ph. D. research, being done focuses to investigation of new formulations of catalysts based on combinations of copper and ceria in which various spinel compositions were considered and employed for processes of production/purification of hydrogen for its use in fuel cells. My research interests include morphologically and/or dimensionally controlled synthesis and characterization of nanomaterial, as well as investigation of the relationships between their structures and properties.
