About Shrey
Shrey Patel is a PhD Candidate in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania. His research focuses on the integration of low carbon energy sources with carbon capture and storage. He is investigating the climate benefit of using geothermal energy to fulfill the heat and electricity requirements of a full carbon removal pathway using process modelling simulations and techno-economic assessment. He uses ASPEN Plus to develop and optimize the process model to integrate geothermal energy with electricity generation, direct air capture, and carbon mineralization. His experimental research includes carbon storage in mining waste, via a pH swing process.
Shrey has a B.Tech. (Hons) in Chemical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras in Chennai, India. During his undergrad, Shrey worked on carbon sequestration using gas hydrates (@IIT Madras), CFD simulations for enhanced CO2 absorption via falling film reactor (@Karlsruhe Institute of Technology), levelized cost of carbon abatement (LCCA) projections for power-to-ammonia process deployment (@University of Waterloo), and predictive control modeling to optimize building energy consumption (@IIT Gandhinagar). He is passionate about using chemical engineering principles and modeling tools to facilitate energy and carbon management. Shrey enjoys hiking and playing sports in his free time.
