Professor Kruczek received his PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of Ottawa in 1999. His doctoral research focused on the development and characterization of polyphenylene oxide-based membranes for gas separation. Following his graduation, Professor Kruczek became a faculty member in the Department of Engineering. His research interests include the development and characterization of polymeric, inorganic, and hybrid organic-inorganic membranes for gas separation. A significant aspect of his research on membrane characterization involves fundamental studies on transport phenomena downstream of the membrane, including resistance accumulation in gases, high vacuum receivers, and back diffusion in constant pressure systems. He has made major contributions to the area of material development, specifically focusing on emulsion polymerized mixed matrix membranes and new types of hybrid membranes. In the field of inorganic membranes, Professor Kruczek is engaged in the synthesis of zeolite membranes, secondary growth processes, pore plugging, and the incorporation of highly ordered natural clays for the synthesis of titanium dioxide-based membranes. His work has been published in several prestigious journals, including the Journal of Membrane Science, Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Separation and Purification Technology, Journal of Flow Measurement and Instrumentation, Desalination, Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, and Experimental Heat Transfer.
