Biography

Craig Taatjes is the senior manager for Physical Sciences at Sandia National Laboratories’ Combustion Research Facility (CRF) in Livermore, California. His research focuses on kinetics and mechanisms of fundamental chemical reactions important in combustion and hydrocarbon oxidation. His work has concentrated on direct measurements of elusive intermediates that are important in complex chemical networks. For example, the carbonyl oxide “Criegee intermediates” that occur in the ozone-initiated oxidation of hydrocarbons play a substantial role in tropospheric chemistry.

Research Interests: Chemical kinetics, combustion chemistry, and atmospheric chemistry. Google Scholar
