Research
Process intensification by Reactive extraction(RE): RE processes involve simultaneous reaction and liquid-liquid extraction that can be effectively utilized to obtain significant improvements in yields and selectivities of desired products as well as for efficient separation of products or byproducts that are hard to separate using conventional separation techniques. My current research is focussed on such potential reactive extraction systems having industrial applications in the field of Chemical and Biotechnology.
