COURSE SUMMARY
INTRODUCTION
Ionic liquids are new class of materials often referred as often salts with low melting points below 100 oC, and unique thermochemical properties such as nonvolatility, excellent thermal and chemical properties. They are composed with organic cation and organic or inorganic anions. Ionic liquid is regarded as greener solvent or reaction media, and hence they find variety of applications. There are millions of ILs solvents that can be prepared by interchanging the cationic and anionic constituents, however, identifying the kind of IL for specific application requires the thorough knowledge of their respective chemistry, thermochemical, and thermophysical properties. COSMO-RS (Conductive-like Screening Model for Real Solvents) is used for the prediction of thermodynamic properties without any experimental investigations, it offers a novel computational pathway extending from quantum chemistry to fluid phase thermodynamics, enabling the use of modern quantum chemistry predictive tools.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
To characterize the synthesized ionic liquids.
1. Associate Professor Dr Mohamad Azmi Bustam (UTP)
Dr. Mohamad Azmi Bustam is an Associate Professor at the chemical Engineering Department. He has received his PhD in material production Engineering from Oita University, Japan. He has been involved in the field of material development for energy, green process and separation for more than 24 years and published more than 240 articles. His research interests includes development of materials for CO2 and H2S removal, ionic liquids and electrodes for electrochemical energy devices. Dr. Azmi is Chartered Engineer for Institue of Marine Engineers, United Kingdom. Currently, he is the head of Centre of research in ionic liquids (CORL) at Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS.
Dr Khairulazhar Jumbri received his PhD degree in Physical Chemistry (including Computational Chemistry) from Universiti Putra Malaysia in 2015. His PhD study was funded by National Science Fellowship (NSF), from Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI) Malaysia. During his PhD, he was attached at Minho University, Portugal where he learnt molecular modelling simulation specifically Molecular Dynamics (MD) technique. Currently he is a senior lecturer at Department of Fundamental and Applied Sciences, Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS. Currently, he is a member of the Centre of Research in Ionic Liquids (CORIL). He is an associate member of the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), UK and American Chemical Society (ACS), USA. In terms of research, his areas of specializations are related to O&G such as carbon capture and separation (CCS), contaminant management and ionic liquids. In 2017, he was selected to attend the 67th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting (dedicated to Chemistry) by the International Lindau Nobel Laureate Council.
