Anil K. Bhowmick, a research professor in the William A. Brookshire Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Houston’s Cullen College of Engineering, has added another prestigious honor to his already impressive collection.

University of Houston researchers are leading a multidisciplinary coalition leveraging artificial intelligence to design and manufacture next-generation permanent magnets, an effort aimed at securing the nation’s domestic supply chain for advanced energy and industrial technologies.

The solution to increasing U.S. oil production could be buried beneath existing oil fields, and a new University of Houston report suggests carbon dioxide may help retrieve it. The UH Energy white paper, “Revitalization of Mature Oil Fields: Opportunities and Challenges of CO2-EOR,” was authored by Charles McConnell, executive director of UH's Center for Carbon Management in Energy, and Zhiyuan Li, a UH petroleum engineering doctoral candidate.
