CO₂ capture (DAC & post-combustion PCC), adsorption and absorption processes, process modeling and simulation, techno-economic analysis, process optimization, experimental studies
My research focuses on CO₂ capture technologies, including direct air capture (DAC) with solid sorbents and amine-based post-combustion capture. I combine process modeling, experimental validation, and techno-economic analysis to evaluate performance and scalability. My work aims to bridge fundamental mechanisms with practical system design.
