Sergey KOZLOV
Assistant Professor
Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering
Sergey Kozlov is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the National University of Singapore. He leads the Computational Nanocatalysis research group, which studies chemical reactivity of composite nanostructured materials for catalysis and other applications. He pioneered density functional simulations of nanoparticle-support interfaces in catalysis and collaborated on the development of catalysts for CO2-neutral economy with global petrochemical companies, such as TOTAL and SABIC. His current research focuses on the rational design of improved nanostructured catalysts for methanol synthesis promoted through doping or alloying and collaborative studies with experimental groups within the NUS Green Energy Program.
