Process Intensification

The work involves identification of a growing fine chemical and develop a process for the same. Catalyst would be identified and synthesized if required. Catalyst would be characterised and teh performance will be evaluated and compared with the conventional counterpart. Various strategies such as combining reaction and separation in a single unit would be explored. Kinetic modeling would be performed for the new catalyst. Modeling and simulation would be performed to compare the same with the conventional process and bring out the added benefits offered by the proposed process. The work involves both modeling and experimental work.
