I have graduated with a PhD degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Bremen/Germany in 2000. I have worked for more than 22 years at several universities. My work included teaching, and performing research in the area of crystallization, adsorption and water reuse and desalination which has resulted in more than 60 papers in international journals and conference proceedings. I have also taught more than 22 different courses including unit operations, separation processes, Bioprocess Engineering, process design, equipment design and most of basic courses in chemical engineering.

Research Intersets:
1. Water Reuse and Treatment (Adsorption, Nano-Filtration Membrane, coagulation, Dissolved
Air Floatation)
2. Crystallization Processes of Organic and Inorganic Materials
3. Application of Polymer Film Heat Exchangers (PFHX) in Seawater Desalination.
4. Crystallization fouling of heat transfer surfaces in seawater desalination, and fouling control
using Seeded Crystallization Methods
5. desalination of seawater using polymer hydrogels
