Education

Dr.Ing. in Chemical Engineering, I.N.S.A. Toulouse, France, 1979 M.S. in Chemical Engineering, Polytechnic Institute of New York, U.S.A., 1976 B.Eng. in Chemical Engineering, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand.

Research Interest

More than 30 years, after the founding of the Center of Excellence on Catalysis and Catalytic Reaction Engineering (CECC), which now consists of 10 faculty members and more than 100 graduate students, I have been involved in the industrial catalyst design which connects the theoretical concepts from academic point of view to the needs of petrochemical industrial reflected through various patents and publications in top-tier journals. The center has hosted various regional and international conferences in catalysis.
