Dear Dr Qader,
I am a final year undergraduate student studying Chemical Engineering at Imperial College London. I am interested in pursuing a career in CCS and am applying for PhD positions for after my course.
However, before I begin one I would like to get some experience through a summer internship working on a real CCS project in industry next summer. I was wondering if you would be able to offer any such opportunities,
Dear Qader,
Many thanks, presently I am not working on the CCS project, I am working on Mass Transfer using ERT but in future I am interested in Green Technology. What about you and your projects.
Hi Ronald,
Thanks for this comment. Yes, Dennis provided me with some of your presented materials and it would ne nice to establish our link so that we can exchange information to the benefit of the CCS cause worldwide.
Cheers,
Abdul
Dr Qader - I met your colleague Dr. Dennis Puyvelde at a CCS event in Delhi earlier this year. I would be happy to keep in touch and share views on the issues surrounding deployment of CCS systems and large scale demonstrators.
