Happiness Imuetinyan, PhD
I hold a Bachelor of Engineering in Petroleum Engineering from the University of Benin in Nigeria, and a Master of Petroleum Engineering from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. I earned my PhD in Process Engineering from the Université de Pau et des Pays de l’Adour, where my research focused on the thermodynamics and transport phenomena of CO₂ mixtures, using experimental methods and optical techniques such as Shadowgraphy. In 2025, I joined the DMEX laboratory at the Université de Pau et des Pays de l’Adour (UPPA) as a Postdoctoral Researcher. My current work involves investigating the convective dissolution of CO₂ in brine-saturated porous rocks using X-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging, which helps advance CO₂ storage technologies. My research interests include fluid thermodynamics, multiphase flow, and reactive transport in porous media.
