OverviewAI-generated summary
Maria L. Carreon's research focuses on the application of cold plasma technology to catalytic processes, particularly for the synthesis of ammonia and the deconstruction of polymers. She investigates the use of various materials, including zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), perovskites, and mesoporous silica (SBA-15), as catalysts in these plasma-assisted reactions. Her work explores the energetic pathways and radical interactions involved in these processes, aiming for sustainable and efficient chemical transformations.
Carreon has received significant federal funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to support her investigations. Notable grants include funding for understanding plasma polarization on perovskites for CO2 capture and conversion, the rational design of alloys for high-yield, non-thermal plasma-assisted ammonia production, and the development of cold plasma-intensified perovskite membrane technology for CO2 utilization. These grants total nearly $1 million, highlighting the scope and importance of her federally funded research.
Her publication record demonstrates a consistent focus on cold plasma catalysis, atmospheric remediation, and sustainable chemical synthesis. She has collaborated extensively with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Fnu Gorky, Apolo Nambo, and Vashanti Storr. With an h-index of 20 and over 2,000 citations, Carreon is recognized as a highly cited researcher.
