Just completed my degree in chemical engineering from Taylor's University. My final year project focused on a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC). Additionally, I worked on a final year group project, designing a plant to convert palm oil empty fruit bunches to hydrogen through gasification.

During my internship at iTrust in the Singapore University of Technology and Design, I served as a research engineer (Intern). My primary task was to create a predictive model for the change in water characteristics. This involved analyzing the water as it went through treatment stages, such as chemical dosing, ultrafiltration, and reverse osmosis. I was responsible for predicting the impact of these treatment processes on the conductivity, pH, and oxygen reduction potential of the water

My internship was in iTrust in Singapore University of Technology and Design where I worked as a research engineer (Intern), where I was tasked to create a predictive model for the change in water characteristic in which the water goes through treatment stages like chemical dosing, ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis and I had to predict what these treatment process would do the conductivity, pH and oxygen reduction potential of water.

I recently completed my degree in Chemical Engineering from Taylor's University, where my coursework included a comprehensive study of essential subjects relevant to the field. I gained expertise in separation processes, focusing on techniques such as distillation, absorption, and extraction. The curriculum also covered process engineering, emphasizing the design, optimization, and analysis of chemical processes.

A significant aspect of my education was a dedicated focus on sustainable development, instilling in me a commitment to environmentally responsible practices within chemical engineering. I received in-depth training in plant safety principles, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of risk assessment and management strategies for secure working environments.

My studies also included a thorough exploration of thermodynamics, providing a strong foundation in the principles governing energy transfer within chemical systems. Additionally, I gained practical experience in process plant simulation using industry-standard software like ASPEN, enabling me to model and simulate chemical processes effectively.

Fluid mechanics, a core aspect of my education, covered topics such as fluid flow, pressure, and viscosity, enhancing my understanding of fluid dynamics and its applications in engineering processes.

Overall, my degree equipped me with a versatile skill set, combining theoretical knowledge with practical applications in separation processes, process engineering, sustainable development, plant safety, thermodynamics, process plant simulation (ASPEN), and fluid mechanics. I am confident that this diverse background positions me as a qualified candidate ready to contribute effectively to your team.
