General information

||||||||||||||||
I am a Research Director (DR1) with the CNRS and have been seconded part-time to TOTAL to coordinate an ambitious “Disruptive CO2 capture technologies” project at TOTAL. For the remaining 20% of my time, I will continue to support the ongoing research at the EnAP team. |

Research activities Highlighting the adsorption & energetic properties of nanoporous solids |
||||||||||||||||
My research interests lie in the thermodynamic analysis of adsorption at the gas/ solid interface. Several aspects are considered :
Various approaches are taken including the development of specific apparatus to follow phenomena under pressure : Microcalorimetry, Adsorption of Gas Mixtures and other apparatus development such as a coupled adsorption-Synchtrotron XRD system. These experimental aspects are accompanied by the macroscopic thermodynamic modeling of adsorption for the prediction of mixture behaviour.

Project activity |

Adsorption for anthropogenic CO2 capture This is the general topic of my secondment with TOTAL where I mange and advise activities related to adsorption-based CO2 capture.
With my secondment, I have cut back on project coordination at MADIREL. However, I am actively interested in both (i) the use of porous materials for harmful gas recovery, and (ii) understanding flexibility in porous MOFs. Porous materials for harmful gas recovery We work directly with the French Army (DGA) on the characterization of potential filter materials which is corrdinated by Emily BLOCH. I am involved in a recently funded national project which deals with novel materials for hazardous gas capture (ANR SESAM) and this project is coordinated by Sandrine BOURRELLY and equally involves Emily. Understanding flexibility in porous MOFs This activity is carried out in a national project, ANR 'MEACOPA' and an Franco-German project ANR 'FUN'. The lead PI for MEACOPA is Isabelle BEURROIES and the lead PI for FUN is Sandrine BOURRELLY.
