R&D Areas/Projects

• Mass transfer with chemical reaction : Intensification of mass transfer processes, mass transfer theories, concentrated dispersions, interfacial reactions.
• Biochemical Engineering : Enzymatic reaction kinetics, enzyme action in heterogeneous media. Fermentation technology - kinetic modelling, operating strategies for productivity enhancement, simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of starchy substrates, novel techniques for oxygen supply to viscous aerobic fermentations. Applications to lactic acid , diacetyl and xanthan gum fermentations.
