Delft, South Holland, Netherlands
1. Investigated integration of waste heat recovery with CO₂ capture systems in a Waste-to-Energy (WtE) plant to reduce overall energy demand. 2. Developed and simulated a novel Dual Stream Configuration of Direct Contact Heat Exchangers (DCHEs) for simultaneous high-quality and high-quantity heat recovery. Integrated recovered heat into a CO₂ capture process using a heat pump, reducing energy demand. 3. Explored further efficiency improvements using Rich Solvent Split (RSS) and Solvent Split Flow (SSF) to lower Specific Reboiler Duty (SRD). All process simulations and analyses were carried out using Honeywell UniSim.

Planning, Managing Start-Up and Shut-Down activities for the Cracking furnace, Distillation column, Incinerator unit, and HCl plant. 6. Reporting of Near misses, unsafe conditions, First aid incidents, and deviations from safety protocols. 7. Was responsible for optimized run of the Chlorinated Hydrocarbon Incineration Unit thereby reducing the downtime of the unit.
1. Got trained in the plant operations of the PVC (Poly Vinyl Chloride) Division, Hydrogen Peroxide Division, CMP (Chloro-Methylene Plant) Division, Caustic Division and Waste Handling Units like Chlorinated Hydrocarbon Incineration Unit and Zero-Liquid Discharge Unit. 2. Understood the functioning and monitoring of process parameters in PLC, SCADA & DCS. 3. Completed OJT (On-the Job-Training) in the VCM Unit and completed a project on the topic of "Caustic Consumption Reduction for Crude EDC (Ethylene Di-Chloride) Washing”, the objective of which was to reduce the Caustic consumption from 80 kg/hr to 50 kg/hr for 1 ton of Crude EDC.
1. In this period, Self-terminating process was used for platinum monolayer deposition onto the previously developed silver nanowire structure to form a porous, electro-catalytic active catalyst layer. 2. The obtained sample of Pt deposited on an AgNW substrate was subjected to various performance evaluation studies like Chrono-amperometry (CA) and Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) to figure out the amount of Pt deposition and Electrochemical Active Surface Area (ECSA) respectively.
1. To test the CO2 capturing efficiency of K2MnO4 solution. The setup to conduct the absorption study was fabricated, and stabilized K2MnO4 solution was prepared to carry out reactive absorption with CO2. 2. The parametric effects on absorption were studied by changing the CO2 flow rate, and the quantity of K2MnO4 solution used.
