Ph.D. Candidate in Chemical and Biological Engineering, University at Buffalo

Ph.D. Candidate in Chemical and Biological Engineering, University at Buffalo My research interest lies in Separation, Pollution Remediation, and Clean Energy. I am currently a Ph.D. candidate at University at Buffalo - SUNY (continuing from RensselaerPolytechnicInstitute), working on ultra-thin, ultra-fast inorganic membranes (graphenes, amorphous metal organic networks, zeolite membranes) and with high selectivity. My research expertise involves implementing Atomic/Molecular Layer Deposition or otherwise to fabricate porous materials to achieve specific separations - targeting precise industrially important molecular separation and water treatment via membranes and adsorbents. Having worked worked in Industry (at Jindal Stainless Limited), gave me insight of taking a concept and turning it into a useful product. Rigorous coursework and group projects at National Institute of Technology and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, helped me to developed into a Chemical Engineering with strong fundamental understanding and a good team player.
