Rumen Gregoriev r.gregoriev@tudelft.nl
Rumen joined the Eral Lab in November 2016 as a PhD student completing his MSc Cum Laude in Utrecht university. He is a proud theoretician turned experimentalist. He hails from high mountains of Bulgaria. He moved to Hawai, USA for his as of November 2021.
Yavuz Kamis y.e.kamis@tudelft.nl
Yavuz joined the Eral Lab in April 2019 to work on a prilling technology at the intersection of Non-newtonian fluid mechanics and crystallization. His project is financed by Kreber B.V. through TKI subsidy. He is co-adviced by Wim-Paul Breugem from TU Delft P&E/ fluid mechanics lab.
Vikram Korede v.korede@tudelft.nl
Vikram joined as a PhD in the Eral Lab in November 2019. He is working on Non-phtochemical laser induced nucleation and anti-solvent crystallization. During his masters (at Eral labs) he worked on the topic titled “Controlling crystal size in solvent exchange process”. He combines the knowledge of microfluidics, crystallization, optics, multiphase phenomena and aims to understand the interplay happening between light and matter in producing highly crystalline materials that has direct applications to fine speciality chemicals industries, pharmaceutical industries, catalyst industries etc. Vikram received his M.Sc. degree in Department of Chemical Engineering at TU Delft and Bachelors degree from National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, India. Vikram also has an avid interest in playing different sports enjoys time in playing cricket, tennis, chess, swimming. He is also passionate about traveling and most importantly cooking outside the lab. Here is a short intro on Vikram in TU Delft site link.
Qi An Q.AN@tudelft.nl
Qi An joined our group in February 2021 as a recipient of China Scholarship Council (CSC) fellowship. She is mainly working on wetting phenomena and micro-fabrication. Her research interests include understanding wetting morphologies of droplets on fibers and evaporation droplets of colloidal suspensions controlled by electrowetting (EW), to further apply in microstructure fabrication, crystallization, and resource recovery. She is co-advised by Dr. Massimo Mastrangeli from EWI Faculty of TU Delft and Dr. Bijoy Bera from TNW Faculty of TU Delft. Qi A received her M.Sc. degree from South China Normal University, Guangzhou, China. Her previous work (during master) was on “Electrowetting on liquid-infused membrane for flexible and reliable digital droplet manipulation and application”.
Julian Postma
Julian joined our group for his PhD after completing MST degree in applied sciences. He is working on next generation maritime transport with H2 for on bringing green H2 to shipping industry. He is focussing on-demand release and storage of H2 and he is co-advised by Johan Padding.
Pepijn van Tooren
Pepijn hails from Delft. He studied applied physics and chemical engineering in Delft. He is currently working on developing electrified separation technologies for trace elements as a part of TREPS program bringing together 5 Dutch universities.
Cherise Tomsjansen
Cherise studied mechanical engineering in Delft. She joined our group in June 2024. Her research focusses on developing new approaches to remove microplastics. In collaboration with industrial partners and NGOs, she aims to develop concepts that can isolate microplastics released from washing machine effluents.
Zhao Peng
Zhao Peng hails from China and studied chemical engineering in TU Delft. He is recipient of recipient of China Scholarship Council (CSC) fellowship. He focuses on expding our current understanding of non-photochemical laser induced nucleation using soft matter and microfluidics.
