About


I was a MITACS Accelerate Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Laboratory of Advanced Separations (LASP) in the Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering at the University of Alberta, Canada. I primarily worked on the design and development of structured beds for carbon capture and on investigating mass-transfer resistances in adsorbents, advancing improved separation efficiency for industrial carbon capture processes. This project was funded by TotalEnergies and MITACS. I completed my Ph.D. at the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur and obtained my Master's at the Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology Bhopal. My doctoral thesis, "Contaminants Removal from Aqueous Solution using Engineered Layered Double Hydroxides," contributed to developing cost-effective methods for water purification. The primary goal of my research is to integrate chemical engineering fundamentals to address separation science challenges in applied research.

Additionally, I am a passionate individual always inspired by creativity and enthusiasm. I believe that solving engineering research problems requires combining thoughts, analysis, prior experience, and fundamental knowledge. This approach helps develop new methodologies for practical problems and leads to more meaningful research outcomes.
