University of Queensland - AIBN

Project - Research Internship MOF aSEIs for zinc bromine flow batteries

Building on previous research projects, this 5 month research placement aims to investigate the effects of metal organic framework (MOF) coatings on the separator as well as the anode in a Zinc Bromine Rechargeable Battery (ZBRB) system.

• Bromine complexing agents
• Porosity Measurement
• Nafion Membranes
• Raman Specroscopy

Project - Enhancing aqueous ZIBs

This project, carried out for the IMAP laboratory at ESPCI over a six-month period, aimed to identify and experimentally evaluate solutions to the problem of dendrite growth on the anode of aqueous zinc ion batteries.

• Background and operating equations: Electrode & Electrolyte Engineering in Aqueous Zinc-ion Batteries
• The current dominant technology: Lithium batteries - Overview
• Role of the electrolyte on the surface of the electrodes: SEI
• Caracterisation de batteries avec différentes techniques analytiques (FRENCH)

Transdisciplinary Project : Green and sustainable chemistry, towards a better periodic table for the Right Chemistry

A six-month project focusing on the history of the periodic table and its adaptation to the needs of scientists working within the context of the sustainable transition in chemistry (green chemistry), carried out for Veolia France.

• Coding of an interactive website as part of the Green Chemistry and the Periodic Table project, based on a synthesis of academic sources
• Series of lectures organised and hosted in Beijing with students from Beijing University of Chemical Technology (BUCT) over a 10-day period as part of the project, with the support of Veolia

UROP research placement at the Soft Matter Science and Engineering (SIMM) laboratory at ESPCI

Internship initially undertaken alongside the chemical engineering degree programme and subsequently on a full-time basis, focusing on the characterisation of the triboelectric charging of droplets in microfluidic devices at the SIMM laboratory.

The research undertook was documented in the internship defence presentation, but in addition to that are accessible the following :

• Scientific poster produced for display in the laboratory at the end of the internship
• Experimental data and results published at the end of the internship

My carbon footprint

Having completed the Atelier 2 Tonnes (2 Tons Worskshop) in March of 2026, my carbon footprint at the time was 6.88 tCO2e. To contribute to emission reduction targets, I need to divide my footprint by 2 by 2030, then aim for 2tCO2e by 2050.

In terms of origin, my largest source of emissions is transport related, at 3.02 tCO2e or 44% of my total emissions. Even daily commuting via bicycle cannot make up for having family split between France and Australia. Following up transport are services (1.86 tCO2e), food (1.5 tCO2e), housing (0.35 tCO2e), and goods (0.15 tCO2e).

Compared to the French national standard emissions, I am 27% below average. My number one field of action in reducing my personal emissions is reducing those linked to travel.
