Brief Research Profile

I work in the areas of mass transfer with chemical reacn: g/l and g/l/s systems,both experimental and modeling aspects. Carbonation of hydrated lime slurry and that of BaS/ NaOH solutions have been experimentally studied in bubble column and slurry-foam reactors and developed reactor models. Working on finding of solvents with high regeneration efficiency for desulfurization of exhaust gases using foam-bed and conventional contactors and adsorptive removal of metal ions and organic impurities.
