Dr. Hussameldin Ibrahim

Hussameldin Ibrahim is an assistant professor of Process Systems Engineering at the University of Regina. His research focus is on developing chemical and engineering solutions for the catalytic conversion of biomass-derived feedstocks to synthetic gas and biofuels. He is one of the lead researchers in the International Test Centre for CO2 Capture and a pioneering developer of one of the world's most effective processes for converting hydrocarbon fuels and bio-based fuels to renewable hydrogen. He is the co-lead researcher on the University of Regina's Feed-Flexible and Process-Flexible (FFPF) Hydrogen Production Pilot Plant Project. His research interests also include COx-free hydrogen production, synthetic fuels from biomass processes, catalytic methods for carbon capture processes, and unconventional enhanced oil production processes. He has published many peer-reviewed research papers in high-impact scientific journals and presented his work at many national and international conferences. He is a recipient of the 2012 Award of Innovation for Novel Hydrogen Production Technology. He was also a recipient of the Governor General's Academic Gold Medal awarded in recognition of his outstanding performance as a Ph.D. candidate. He has professional affiliations with the Association of Professional Engineering and Geoscientists of Saskatchewan (APEGS) and the Project Management Institute (PMI).
