Mechanical Engineering professor earns NSF CAREER Award for low-temperature plasma research

Mitigating the environmental impact of meeting the world's rapidly increasing transportation energy demands is a problem. The National Science Foundation (NSF) thinks Nick Tsolas may have a solution.

The assistant professor of mechanical engineering recently received a $518,000 NSF CAREER Award to investigate low-temperature plasma-assisted combustion of oxygenated fuels as a potential alternative to achieving a cleaner and sustainable future for the transportation sector.
