Graduate Research Assistant in Analytical/Environmental Chemistry

• Jan 2010 - Oct 2014

• Developed and demonstrated the potential of magnetite nanoparticles in combination with cellulose materials to be used as a green adsorbent for the remediation of mono-aromatics (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene) air pollutants by adsorption. • Showed that reactions of toluene and the competitive adsorption of NO2 and water vapor on magnetite nanoparticles were dependent on initial surface properties of iron (oxidation levels and presence of basic functional groups), which were influenced by nanoscale reactivity. • Gas-solid adsorption reactions and mechanisms • Gas phase mixture analysis and iron oxide nanoparticle surface chemical analyses • Assisted teaching general chemistry laboratory for undergraduates • Trained undergraduate students for gas phase chemistry techniques Technical skills: gas chromatography (FID and MS), solid-phase microextraction, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and BET surface area analysis. I am also familiar with ATR-FTIR, TOF-SIMS, TEM and SEM Oral presentations • Eltouny, N. and Ariya, P. A. (May 2013). 96th Canadian Society for Chemistry (CSC), QC. • Eltouny, N. and Ariya, P. A.
