Bio:
Saliu Korede is a Ph.D. student in Chemical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. He is co-advised by Prof. Valerie Thomas (ISYE) and Prof. Fani Boukouvala. Saliu received his Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering from the University of Lagos in 2024, where he conducted his undergraduate research under the guidance of Prof. M. A. Usman.
His undergraduate thesis focused on the thermochemical splitting of water for hydrogen production, where he performed life cycle assessment (LCA) and techno-economic analysis of copper–chloride thermochemical cycles. In this work, he examined the key differences between the four-step and five-step Cu–Cl cycles and analyzed how the additional hydrolysis step in the five-step configuration affects hydrogen yield, process complexity, and energy demand.
His current research focuses on conducting life cycle assessments (LCA) of biomass conversion pathways to produce useful chemicals and fuels. This entails the optimization of chemical processes using process systems engineering approaches to improve the sustainability, efficiency, and environmental performance of energy and chemical production systems.
Outside the lab, Saliu enjoys playing table tennis and watching movies.
