Dr. Khadijeh Molaainezhad

Visiting Assistant Professor

Fall 2011 Schedule

Schedule Sem/Lab Time Days Room

Profile:

Dr. Molaainezhad after receiving her Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from USC in 2006, spent three years as a process engineer at Worley Parsons and Fluor, Inc. She joined the department in 2009 as a visiting assistant professor to teach in the area of kinetics and environmental engineering and science.

She has extensive experience in membrane separations. Her research, both fundamental and developmental, is conducted in the areas of membrane-separations engineering. In particular, the research involves membrane/supercritical carbon dioxide separation process design includes experimental and/or theoretical investigations. Utilization of such membranes would produce significant reductions in operating costs compared with the energy-intensive expansion/re-compression cycle conventionally utilized in order to separate solutes from supercritical solvents. Dr. Molaainezhad received Dissertation Fellowship Award in 2006

She won awards for excellence in teaching assistant for Computer-Aided Chemical Process Design; Chemical Process and Plant Design in 2004 and 2005.
