Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Howard Hendrix's research focuses on the modeling and optimization of energy systems, particularly those incorporating direct air capture (DAC) for carbon negativity. His work investigates the integration of modular DAC technology into natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) power plants to achieve negative emissions. Hendrix has explored the potential for these enhanced NGCC plants to provide positive power output while simultaneously removing greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.

His research also extends to assessing the environmental impact of bio-based energy production. Specifically, Hendrix has studied the greenhouse gas implications of producing algal bio-crude under various carbon dioxide supply scenarios. This work contributes to understanding the life cycle emissions associated with alternative fuel sources.

Hendrix is also involved in broader educational initiatives, serving as a Co-Principal Investigator on an NSF grant aimed at expanding the scientific workforce in rural regions. This project focuses on providing scholarships, fostering belonging, and investing in community support to enhance educational opportunities in underserved areas. He maintains an active lab website to share his research activities.
