Happy #last_week_of_classes , with Prof Alina Stavroula Kampouri ❗️

Environmental Science & Technology Journals A great set of 14 environmental materials papers (chosen from first three years of journal) ❗️+ accompanying editorial by me🙋‍♂️, Jess Ray , and Steve Suib🏀 pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

So happy for you, Minjung Kim , congratulations ❗️ the journey continues👏🎉🏎️💨

We in Rice U. Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering and Rice University Chemistry Department are so happy for alum Minjung Kim 🎉❗️

The Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Department at Rice University invite you to join us at the 2024 Leland Lecture. Our distinguished speaker is Pablo G. Debenedetti, a Professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering at Princeton University. bit.ly/3U2anFE

Great Southwest Catalysis Society Spring meeting❗️ Outstanding turnout (>150 folks), super engaging academic&industry talks; spacious facilities at Shell Woodcreek👍 (And, a best poster award presented by Welman👏)

A true honor having Pablo (Princeton Engineering) visit Rice U. Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering as Leland Lecturer last week❗️ An outstanding scientist to help celebrate Tom Leland’s legacy and to restart our department’s Lectureship

PhD hooding ceremony… always special❗️ congrats again to Bo, Hunter and Austin🎓🎓🎓 #RiceGrad2024

Thank you, Dean Matsuda, for all that you do for all our graduate students and postdocs❗️ #RiceGrad2024

With 2024 AIChE President Alan Nelson (🐝) and Hoss Shariat (KBR, OTC) at the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) reception at #OTC2024 yesterday👍#Bee_a_ChemE

A very enjoyable event, great questions❗️ A takeaway: boron nitride enables photocatalysis to be low-$$$ nonthermal #PFAS destruction technology Here’s link to recorded webinar: youtube.com/watch?v=NhIjzl…

Thanks❗️ for the chance to talk on TV about the oil spill in Galveston Bay waterway last week 👍 #barge #bridge #chemical_safety #contained

A majority of area residents believe Houston should lead the world in transitioning to alternative energy sources, according to Rice University’s 43rd annual Kinder Houston Area Survey, presented at the Kinder Institute for Urban Research luncheon Monday. bit.ly/3yu0Grv (1/3)

No group meetings during the summer semester… lunches, on the other hand… #close_enough_to_Memorial_Day_Weekend

Rice University will launch a Master of Energy Transition and Sustainability program this fall designed to equip students with the tools needed to thrive in the evolving energy industry landscape. bit.ly/3Vry62Z

So great that Josh Joshua Samba and Abe Nelson (CEVE major) is representing the team at #EPAp3❗️ #PFAS #photo🐱 NEWT Engineering Research Center Rice U. Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering Rice University Civil & Environmental Engineering

“Forever chemicals” are everywhere, including in many of our devices with rechargeable batteries. Rice University’s Michael S. Wong spoke with Chemistry World about a new report on PFAS’ long-term impact. bit.ly/3zMNrTt

We are thrilled to announce the upcoming Inaugural Great Plains #PFAS Symposium & Workshop 2024 to launch a multi-institution #PFAS consortium for this region & beyond. Looking 4ward to keynote by Mohamed Ateia Ibrahim, Hossain Azam. Thx Nebraska EPSCoR , Nebraska Research, Nebraska Engineering

.U.S. Army ERDC Director Dr. David Pittman and leadership recently traveled to Houston, Texas, to tour Rice University. During the visit, the group was introduced to the new Rice PFAS Alternatives and Remediation Center that will address global challenges posed by PFAS.
