Academic Projects

“Aspen Simulation & Economics of Biodiesel Production us ing the Oleaginous July 2013- Present

Microorganism” “Lipomyces Sterkeyi”

Design the process that is for the conversion of the medium into biodiesel using Aspen Plus

Simulate for a plant capacity of 10millon gals/year

Create economic analysis for the project

“Coal to Methanol” Jan 2013 – May 2013

This was a design project and was done using Aspen Plus

Primary objective was to provide a preliminary design for a coal to methanol process and to determine

the economic feasibility of the project

Used coal as the primary raw material and coal gasification method was use d as coal conversion

technology

Carried out a complete flowsheet designing, simulation of the design and mass and energy balance for

the process

Calculated cost estimation using Aspen Plus

Learned handling of solids using Aspen Plus

“Synthesis of Heat Exchanging Networks using Genetic Algorithm” Aug 2011 – May 2012

Worked on a team to complete this project

Objective was to obtain minimum energy requirement, minimum area and minimum cost

Researched extensively on Pinch Technology and Evolutionary Methods like Genetic Algorithm

Prepared a heat exchanger network model to carry out energy integration

Optimized using Genetic Algorithm

Wrote a “Scilab” program/code for in general two hot and two cold stream networks
