Generate a tailored SOP for Dr. Perrine Pepiot. Improve your application with a focused, well-structured draft.
Before joining the Cornell faculty in 2011, Perrine Pepiot was a research scientist at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colorado, where she developed chemical multi-phase flow models to investigate biomass gasification and fluidized bed reactors for ethanol production. She holds a Ph.D. and M.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University, as well as an M.S. in Aeronautics and Astronautics from the Ecole Nationale Superieure de l’Aeronautique et de l’Espace (Supaero) in Toulouse, France. Her research interests include the production and utilization of renewable liquid transportation fuels, with a focus on gaining an understanding of biomass thermochemical conversion processes such as pyrolysis and gasification through detailed multi-scale numerical techniques. Additionally, she is involved in the development of automatic tools aimed at reducing the complexity of large chemical mechanisms to generate low-order kinetic models for conventional bio-fuels combustion.
