About me

I'm a Professor & Scientist @ CIPET. I guide M.Sc, M.Tech & Ph.D students.

Basically my work is TEACHING & R&D

My Green Mission

I'm always keen with interest to work on sustainability projects for public domain to make environment pollution free. With over a past 6 years of experience in chemical laboratories & working on 17 different projects for government of India helps me to endeavor to put wheel into motion & got influenced from my immersed research in "Innovative research of waste into energy". Recently, I'm working with government of India, taking initiative step for building world's largest power sector producing (9700MV) from a solar cell by 2021 & also working on "Novel Technology to build biodegradable plastic from waste".

Throughout my academic and industries experiences, I received training in conducting studies and literature searches using database, analyzing and summarizing data. I gained experience in recovery & reuse rather than doing recycling. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of during entire work was not only on e-waste but also doing "Sublimation of olefins waste into fuels", "Final Degradation of Compact Disc", Aerogel Synthesis" & Recovery of vinyl chlorides & Bisphenol -A from thermoset materials....Green approach of waste into energy was the central motive of my project. One of previous project was on "Extraction and Recovery & Reuse of E-waste composites by Ionic liquid" & was awarded best project of the year by Government of India in 2014. Extraction of Gold, Platinum....etc precious metals recovery and reuse was vital and very must from e-waste and probably many of analysis can be done like reacting with Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), 1-ethyl 3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, Sodium cyanide, leaching process (Nitric acid) and many more .

Recently, I developed a project "Green House Gases convert into Bioplastics" and " Superabsorbent Polymer used as a fertilizers called as SOLID RAIN". This was conclude one of the best project on solid waste management by Mr. Prime Minister Make in India known as FICCI. However, I'll be privileged and honor to work at on solid waste to make world green and clean, if you give me an opportunity once. I have enough potential and caliber to get BEST from WASTE. If interested, I'll happy to share all my work, let me know.
