Center for Catalysis and Separate (CeCaS)

The Center of Catalysis and Separation (CeCaS) is a research center at Khalifa University. The Center builds upon the scientific human power of KU with a cohort multidisciplinary expertise spanning from different aspects of catalysis to adsorption and separation. It is one of its kind within the UAE and has a strategic plan to be a financially sustainable center, building on national and international reputation, and competitive and industrial grants. The synergy among its faculty and staff will tackle the challenges and complexities in the above domains in academic and industrial sectors. The Center provides a multiscale integrated approach to solve scientific and engineering problems that spans across scales and disciplines, including (1) Catalysis for Energy and Chemicals, (2) Separation and Adsorption Applications, and (3) Multiscale Modeling, whereas it offers a vibrant and exciting environment that educates and stimulates the next-generation of engineers with focal point chemicals, membranes, reactors, materials, refineries, and renewable energy.
