His academic research projects have covered a broad spectrum of chemical reaction engineering, especially heterogeneous catalysis: chemical reactions during metal casting, dioxin formation during waste incineration, selective synthesis gas reactions, green manufacturing, diffusion in porous media, hydrogen production for fuel cells, and fuel cell electrode reactions. His teaching interests are focused in chemical reaction engineering.
Dr. Lane’s current research is focused on heterogeneous catalysis and electrocatalysis applied to fuel cells and the hydrogen economy, along with new interests in batteries and photovoltaics.
