Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen
  • Hydrogen

X-ray absorption fine structure, Analytical chemistry, Coal, Inorganic chemistry and XANES are his primary areas of study. His X-ray absorption fine structure research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Chromium, Mercury, Sulfur and Chemisorption. He has included themes like Transmission electron microscopy and Nuclear chemistry in his Analytical chemistry study.

His Coal study incorporates themes from Deformation, Fly ash, Mineralogy and Liquidus. Gerald P. Huffman has included themes like Hematite, Catalysis and Chlorine in his Inorganic chemistry study. He has researched XANES in several fields, including Combustion and Absorption spectroscopy.

His most cited work include:

  • Hydrogen Production by Catalytic Decomposition of Methane (207 citations)
  • Quantitative analysis of all major forms of sulfur in coal by x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (188 citations)
  • Ferrihydrite: surface structure and its effects on phase transformation (172 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Inorganic chemistry, Catalysis, Coal, Analytical chemistry and X-ray absorption fine structure. His Inorganic chemistry research includes elements of Dehydrogenation, Ferrihydrite, Carbon, Syngas and Iron oxide. His Catalysis study incorporates themes from Hydrogen, Liquefaction and Chemical engineering.

His studies deal with areas such as Combustion, Fly ash and Mineralogy, Pyrite as well as Coal. His work on Mössbauer spectroscopy as part of his general Analytical chemistry study is frequently connected to Particle, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. The X-ray absorption fine structure study combines topics in areas such as Pyrrhotite, Sulfur, Nickel, Nuclear chemistry and XANES.
