David Heldebrant

Laboratory Fellow

Biography

Dr. David J. Heldebrant is a laboratory fellow and a research leader in the Advanced Energy Systems Group in the Energy Processes and Materials Division at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. Dr. Heldebrant joined PNNL as a post-doctoral research scientist in 2005 and was named a laboratory fellow in 2022.

His current research focuses on applying the principles of green chemistry to improve atom and energy efficiency and reduce toxicity of chemical processes, making energy-related process more environmentally benign. Focus areas include developing materials that can perform multiple tasks to reduce waste and improve energy efficiency in the fields of chemical separations and chemical conversions and applying these principles in areas of industrial gas separations, liquid/liquid separations, and catalysis. The work focuses on the development of organic gas-separating liquids that can chemically remove CO₂, SO_x, and H₂S from combustion, gasification, or natural gas streams through applied and fundamental studies of gas absorption kinetics, thermodynamics, and mechanistic studies.
