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.
Polymer reaction engineering :
Interfacial polycondensation - kinetic modelling, correlation between reaction rate, polymer structure and performance in applications such as controlled release microcapsules and thin film composite membranes.
Liquid phase organic oxidations :
Kinetics and reaction engineering of catalyzed and uncatalyzed autoxidations.
