2022 Day 46 Task – Online Discussion on New Thermodynamic Work

I am glad and happy that I am working with a nice Malaysian person who is not my student and not attached to a university yet. The student is supposed to be my PhD students this coming March semester, however, because she received an offer from a university from outside Malaysia, hence she has to turned down being my PhD student. I understand her a lot in the sense that she wanted to have international / foreign exposure after having her bachelor and masters degree in Malaysia. It’s good to travel and learn new things abroad.

I have been discussing and guiding her on this new thermodynamic topics since end of January. This afternoon, after lunch, we had a Webex meeting because she was not yet well verse with the thermodynamic software. Hence, I suggested to have the meeting so I can explain more on the software and how to use it. It went well and I am hoping that we can come out with a very good publication soon.

Other tasks of the day:

  • Small CEE Admin meeting – 10am
  • Kursus Asas Haji – 7.45pm
  • Marking and keying in marks

Day 282 Task – My Student Presented at ICCME2020 Conference, UNDIP, Indonesia

I could not believe this. Last week, I was just involved and directly involved in RCEE2020, as organizer, chairman, participant etc. This week, the International Conference on Chemical and Material Engineering (ICCME2020) appeared and we participated in it. Luckily my student Nor Fatin Farihah Mohd Yusof has done a good job writing a paper which later will be published in a scopus indexed journal. She also prepared and presented her research titled Thermodynamic Analysis of Glycerol-Methane Steam Reforming to Hydrogen in this conference just now.

I am happy and proud that she has done a great job in this research, considering she’s an undergraduate student and given the opportunity to present in an international conference and publishing a manuscript in a journal early in the PSM2 stage. What an amazing achievement! She’s not stopping there because she has prepared a second paper that I am checking and will be published in another conference or journal soon. InsyaAllah.
