Under Dr. P. Madhuri: Co-invented and published a patent (Patent No. 17/2026) on a sustainable process for converting waste neem leaves into cellulose-rich pulp, through soda pulping followed by hydrogen peroxide bleaching.
Under Dr. G. V. Ramesh: Authored and co-authored 11 peer-reviewed publications and 1 published patent (Patent No. 45/2024), covering CO₂ electroreduction, ORR, antibacterial nanomaterials, and photocatalytic systems innovations; presented findings at international conferences. Awarded best paper, Research Day, CBIT (2023); Best paper, International Conference on Sustainable Energy and Environmental Developments (2024).
• Researched and analyzed plasma nitro-carburization of steel components, evaluating the effect of temperature, treatment duration, and plasma conditions on surface modification and diffusion depth. • Experimented and gained insights through MAO treatment on aluminum alloys with electrolyte cooling, optimizing electrical and process parameters to produce oxide coatings.
Analyzed how a Chlor-Alkali Plant functions with a special focus on Caustic Evaporation and Flaking Unit; with how the CEU and CFU together result in the Caustic reaching a 99% purity, performing material and energy balance calculations to find optimum I/O flow rates and studying effects of heat transfer.
