Herbert M. Kosstrin
Title
MD Leidos Process Chemicals
Bio
Throughout his tenure with Leidos, Dr. Herb Kosstrin has been a leading force in the company’s entry into new marketplaces for chemical process, solid waste management, cogeneration, and renewable resource projects. He has more than 40 years of experience in the development, demonstration, and evaluation of processes that enhance environmental performance, produce alternative fuels, and provide alternative sources of power generation.
Dr. Kosstrin is nationally recognized for his expertise in alternative energy and other advanced technologies and, over the past decade, has been integral to the growing investment in biofuel and gasification technologies. He frequently serves as project manager for bankability and independent engineer’s reviews of first-of-a-kind special technology projects. Evaluations of new technologies investigate both the technical and potentially commercial aspects of processes based on their conceptual designs, with consideration of such issues as the environmental impact of the technology, potential system availability and redundancy requirements, the effect of fuel quality on the process, and constraints related to site-specific characteristics. Without this unique support, some of the world’s now more “commercial” technologies would remain less advanced.
In addition to involvement in the earliest stages of projects, Dr. Kosstrin has authored numerous publications, presented many papers on gasification and other advanced technologies, and was awarded two patents for alternative technologies. In 2010, he was appointed a Leidos Technical Fellow, recognizing both his technical accomplishments and the unique resource he offers to the firm and its staff.
