Mohamed Abdelrahman

Mohamed is a research scientist at Moleaer and conducts applied research on the interaction of nanobubble science and electrochemistry. He earned his B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California Irvine and a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University. Born in Denver, CO, on the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, Mohamed developed an attraction to the outdoors and natural wonders. His love for nature created a curiosity about how human activities affect the environment, driving his passion for the field of renewable energy. To pursue this passion, he studied electricity generation from hydrogen using solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and the application of SOFCs in microgrids during his undergraduate research. This later propelled him to apply the concepts of electrochemistry, fluid mechanics, and colloidal chemistry in his graduate studies researching liquid-fed proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrodes, particularly those used in direct methanol fuel cells (DMFC) and PEM water electrolyzers.
