Rate My Professor Hossein Jahromi

Jahromi has been principal investigator and co-investigator on multiple funded projects, including a $650,000 USDA-NIFA grant for eco-friendly biolubricant production from waste cooking oil (2023-2025, PI, 40% credit), a $10,000,000 USDA-NIFA project on reimagining controlled environment agriculture (2023-2027, Co-PI, 5% credit), and a $1,000,000 USDA-NIFA grant for dual-function engineered biochar (2023-2027, Co-PI, 20% credit), among others totaling millions in funding from USDA, NSF, and industry partners. He co-invented commercialized patents, such as 'Red Mud Compositions and Methods Related Thereto' (Application No. 16/376,972, sold for $8.5 million plus royalties) and 'Bio-Lubricant Compositions and Methods Thereof' (US Patent App. No. 17/939,427). His selected publications include 'Biocarbon-catalyzed methane decomposition towards clean hydrogen and enhanced biocarbon production' (International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 2024), 'Magnesium doped biochar for simultaneous adsorption of phosphate and nitrogen ions from aqueous solution' (Chemosphere, 2024), 'Hydrotreatment of solvent-extracted biocrude from hydrothermal liquefaction of municipal sewage sludge' (Energy Conversion and Management, 2022), 'Synthesis of Novel Biolubricants from Waste Cooking Oil and Cyclic Oxygenates through an Integrated Catalytic Process' (ACS Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering, 2021), and 'Hydrocarbon biolubricants from hydrotreated renewable and waste derived liquid intermediates' (Journal of Cleaner Production, 2023). These contributions advance sustainable biomass conversion, clean energy production, and environmental remediation technologies.
