Jeffrey Grossman

Jeffrey Grossman is an American engineer, the Morton and Claire Goulder and Family Professor in Environmental Systems at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Department of Materials Science and Engineering. He is also a MacVicar Faculty Fellow.

Some of his research focuses are energy materials and nano-materials. His research has included the development of materials that can store solar energy chemically, and then release the energy at a later time as heat, a process for constructing electronic components out of coal,  novel three-dimensional arrangements for solar panels,  and studies on the use of graphene for water desalination.

Grossman is also a co-founder of two companies developing membranes for efficient industrial separations, ViaSeparations and SiTration.
