Kim Y, Thomas A, Robichaud D, Iisa K, St John P, Etz B, et al.
J Hazard Mater . 2020 Jun; 400:123198. PMID: 32585513
The hazards to health and the environment associated with the transportation sector include smog, particulate matter, and greenhouse gas emissions. Conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into biofuels has the potential to...

Ormond T, Baraban J, Porterfield J, Scheer A, Hemberger P, Troy T, et al.
J Phys Chem A . 2018 Jun; 122(28):5911-5924. PMID: 29893563
The nascent steps in the pyrolysis of the lignin components salicylaldehyde ( o-HOCHCHO) and catechol ( o-HOCHOH) were studied in a set of heated microreactors. The microreactors are small (roughly...

Bu L, Ciesielski P, Robichaud D, Kim S, McCormick R, Foust T, et al.
J Phys Chem A . 2017 Jul; 121(29):5475-5486. PMID: 28678503
Oxygenated biofuels provide a renewable, domestic source of energy that can enable adoption of advanced, high-efficiency internal combustion engines, such as those based on homogeneously charged compression ignition (HCCI). Of...

Drouin B, Benner D, Brown L, Cich M, Crawford T, Devi V, et al.
J Quant Spectrosc Radiat Transf . 2016 Nov; 186:118-138. PMID: 27840454
Retrievals of atmospheric composition from near-infrared measurements require measurements of airmass to better than the desired precision of the composition. The oxygen bands are obvious choices to quantify airmass since...

Buckingham G, Porterfield J, Kostko O, Troy T, Ahmed M, Robichaud D, et al.
J Chem Phys . 2016 Jul; 145(1):014305. PMID: 27394106
Cycloheptatrienyl (tropyl) radical, C7H7, was cleanly produced in the gas-phase, entrained in He or Ne carrier gas, and subjected to a set of flash-pyrolysis micro-reactors. The pyrolysis products resulting from...

Clark J, Pilath H, Mittal A, Michener W, Robichaud D, Johnson D
J Phys Chem A . 2015 Dec; 120(3):332-45. PMID: 26698331
We demonstrate a synthetic route toward the production of propene directly from poly(β-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), the most common of a wide range of high-molecular-mass microbial polyhydroxyalkanoates. Propene, a major commercial hydrocarbon,...

Ferguson G, Cheng L, Bu L, Kim S, Robichaud D, Nimlos M, et al.
J Phys Chem A . 2015 Oct; 119(46):11397-405. PMID: 26501585
Zeolites are common catalysts for multiple industrial applications, including alcohol dehydration to produce olefins, and given their commercial importance, reaction mechanisms in zeolites have long been proposed and studied. Some...

Kim S, Robichaud D, Beckham G, Paton R, Nimlos M
J Phys Chem A . 2015 Mar; 119(15):3604-14. PMID: 25802969
Dehydration over acidic zeolites is an important reaction class for the upgrading of biomass pyrolysis vapors to hydrocarbon fuels or to precursors for myriad chemical products. Here, we examine the...
