Hal S. Alper, the Kenneth A. Kobe Professor of Chemical Engineering at the Univ. of Texas at Austin (UT Austin), will present the American Institute of Chemical Engineers’ (AIChE’s) Andreas Acrivos Professional Progress Award Lecture for 2024. As the 2023 recipient of the Acrivos Award for Professional Progress in Chemical Engineering, Alper will discuss his research during the 2024 AIChE Annual Meeting on Oct. 29 in San Diego, CA.
The Andreas Acrivos Award for Professional Progress in Chemical Engineering recognizes the contributions of a chemical engineer in their early career. The award is endowed by the AIChE Foundation and named in honor of Andreas Acrivos, Professor Emeritus at The City College of New York, who pioneered the field of fluid dynamics and is an influential leader in the chemical engineering profession. The associated lecture is a highlight of each year’s AIChE Annual Meeting — a foremost educational forum for chemical engineers working in research and development. (See related article below.)
In his Professional Progress Award lecture, entitled “Engineering Biology to Develop a Taste for Waste,” Alper will discuss how advances in metabolic engineering and synthetic biology are improving the valorization and remediation of waste, and presenting new routes for environmental stewardship and sustainable industrial...
