Catherine Koshland research group
Ongoing research projects include:
- Combustion Processes: Emission, Monitoring, and Intervention
Professor Koshland's research and teaching are at the intersection of air pollution,
combustion, energy and public health. She works with graduate students in
Mechanical Engineering and Civil Engineering as well as in Public Health and Energy
and Resources. Her primary research has been focused on the analysis of pollutant
formation in combustion processes including the study of fundamental chemical
kinetic mechanisms for chlorinated hydrocarbons, droplet and spray combustion and
the development of advanced diagnostic tools for non-intrusive monitoring of
combustion species including CHCs and metals. In addition, she has worked with a
number of students at the intersection of energy (combustion), air pollution and
environmental (human) health examining exposure assessment, strategies for
reducing NOx emissions from the electric power industry, and public participation in
environmental decision making. Her most recent work is in the area of green
manufacturing and industrial ecology, addressing the conception and assessment of
improved technologies in energy and manufacturing that address environmental needs
and the barriers to the implementation of new technologies or policies.
