Expert Search Tip: National Academy of Engineering

Desulfurization Blog (http://jeansteinhardtconsulting.com/) followers know that our aim is to provide, in addition to specific resources, tips on how you can locate those resources.
Today's tip is how to use Google® to save time searching a known website.

The National Academy of Engineering (NAE) (http://www.nae.edu/) mission is "to promote the technological welfare of the U.S. by marshaling the knowledge and insights of eminent members of the engineering profession"

Searching for “desulfurization” from within the NAE website results in nothing of interest. However, a Google® search using the string: "national academy of engineering" desulfurization 2009 produces …

Heterogeneous catalysis and chemical reaction engineering
Professor Iglesia has been involved in studies of heterogeneous catalysts for the direct and indirect conversion of methane to higher hydrocarbons, uses of light alkanes in desulfurization and de-NOx, reactions, dehydrogenation of light alkanes to alkenes and aromatics, catalytic reforming and cracking processes, for low-temperature isomerization, alkylation, and combustion reactions. Current research projects also include the practical use of catalytic membranes to combine reaction and separation functions in alkane dehydrogenation and conversion processes and the development of theoretical methods for predicting the structure, transport, and chemical properties of porous solid catalysts. His research group at Berkeley combines expertise and facilities for the synthesis of novel catalytic solids, their in-situ structural and mechanistic characterization, and the detailed modeling of kinetic and transport processes in catalytic processes relevant to oil refining and petrochemical synthesis.
