RESEARCH INTERESTS

Dr. Luss’ group is currently conducting research on the following topics: The formation of hot-spot  in packed-bed reactors, the combustion of soot accumulated in diesel particulate filters, catalyst particles temperature rise during polyolefin synthesis in fluidized bed reactors, novel methods of synthesis of solid oxides and the dynamic features of combustion of solid nano-particles. Specific research projects include:


› Hot spots formation in packed-bed reactors
Local hot spots formed next to the walls of packed bed reactors can lead to severe safety problems. We conduct both experimental and theoretical studies of what reactions and operating conditions can lead to formation of such hot spots and their dynamic features.


› Combustion  of soot in diesel particulate filters
The generation of particulate pollution (soot) by diesel engines is a serious health hazard. Its removal is done by  use of a ceramic diesel particulate filter and periodic combustion of the accumulated particulate matter. The goal of our experimental and theoretical related study is to generate the understanding needed to develop improved combustion protocol.

Flow pattern in a DPF


› Transient temperature rise during polymerization
Local softening or melting of growing polymer particles in fluidized bed reactors may lead to formation of polymer sheets, that require shut down. We conduct experimental and modeling studies to determine the impact of catalyst properties, reaction mixture composition and operating conditions on the transient temperature rise. This information is essential for avoiding local melting.

› Novel synthesis of solid oxides
We have developed a novel method for the synthesis of solid oxides by having a high temperature front propagate through a mixture of carbon and some minerals. The method enables a more economic synthesis than do other methods.  Moreover, it can be used directly to produce nano-particles. We conduct studies on the impact of the operating conditions and reactants mixture composition on the product properties and the dynamics of the combustion front.
