Biography

Dan Steingart is the Stanley-Thompson Associate Professor of Chemical Metallurgy in  the Departments of Earth and Environmental Engineering and Chemical Engineering at Columbia University, and the Co-Director of the Columbia Electrochemical Energy Center. Previously he was an associate professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and the Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment at Princeton University and before than an Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering at the City College of the City University of New York.

His group studies the interactions between materials and systems in electrochemical reactors with a focus on energy storage devices. His current research looks to exploit traditional failure mechanisms and “unwanted” interactions with batteries for systematic understanding and device enhancement. His efforts in this area over the last decade have been adopted by various industries and have led directly or indirectly to five electrochemical energy related startup companies, the latest being Feasible, an effort dedicated to exploiting the inherent acoustic responses of closed electrochemical systems.
