SFU researcher aims to advance existing technology to combat climate change

By: Yelin Gemma Lee, News Writer Sami Khan, an assistant professor at SFU’s School of Sustainable Engineering, aims to combat the climate crisis by researching ways to improve existing energy systems. Khan directs the research group, Engineered Interfaces for Sustainable Energy (EISEn), in using chemistry and mechanical engineering to address climate change. Khan spoke to The Peak about the research he and EISEn are focused on. “The specific focus for us is CO2 [carbon dioxide] capture and conversion because this is also a process that happens at interfaces. When CO2 bubbles are inserted in a liquid, the interfaces swarm between…
