Christopher W. Jones is an American chemical engineer and researcher on catalysis[1] and carbon dioxide capture.[2] In 2014 he is the Associate Vice President for Research, New-Vision Professor of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering and Adjunct Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the Georgia Institute of Technology, in Atlanta, GA.
Early life and education
Jones was born in Michigan, where he graduated from Troy High School in 1991. He earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of Michigan and masters and doctorate degrees from the California Institute of Technology, all in chemical engineering.
Career
Jones has been recognized for his contributions to research in catalysis by the American Chemical Society with the Ipatieff Prize in 2010, the North American Catalysis Society with the Paul H. Emmett Award in Fundamental Catalysis in 2013 and the American Society of Engineering Education with the Curtis W. McGraw Research Award, also in 2013. In 2011, he was selected by the American Chemical Society as the Founding Editor-in-Chief of the new interdisciplinary catalysis journal, ACS Catalysis, which was recognized by the Association of American Publishers as the Best New Journal in Science, Technology & Medicine in 2012. He has over 150 journal publications and patents.
Jones also conducts research in the field of direct air capture, a geoengineering approach to the prevention of climate change in which carbon dioxide is extracted from the atmosphere for purposes of concentration and sequestration as a possible means to reduce the global atmospheric carbon dioxide level.[3][4] Jones studies the use of solid materials containing amines to capture carbon dioxide from air and other ultra-dilute gases,[5][6] and has partnered with Global Thermostat, LLC, to develop a commercial technology based on his research in adsorption.[7]
In 2014 Jones has published research about the productions of metal-organic framework membranes.[8]
