Education:

> Masters of Science in Environmental Engineering

September 2004-December 2006

Cleveland State University, Cleveland, OH

> Bachelors of Engineering in Chemical Engineering

August 2000-August 2003

University of Mumbai, India

> Diploma in Chemical Technology (Petroleum and Petrochemicals)

July 1997-August 2000

MS Projects:

> Alternative adsorbents used for removal of textile dyes from wastewater,

Cleveland State University

The research included investigating the various alternatives for

activated carbon used in Adsorption process. The adsorption properties of

the alternatives on textile dyes were compared with activated carbon, the

results of all the experiments were plotted and based on it the best

suitable alternative was proposed.

> Life Cycle Assessment, Cleveland State University

The project involved leading a team of students for analysis and

comparison of the various types of floorings. Based on their

environmental impact, cost effectiveness, hygiene and other factors,

various types of floorings like traditional carpet flooring, recycled non-

toxic carpet square flooring, bamboo flooring etc. were investigated and

the best type of flooring was proposed.

> Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Project, Cleveland

State University

The goal of the project was to investigate various buildings at Cleveland

State University and determine their rating and propose alternatives

based on the LEED certification. A detailed analysis of energy

optimization, risk assessment, waste stream management, indoor

environmental quality and building site maintenance program was carried

out and alternate proposals to maximize the operational efficiency,

upgrade strategies and minimize environmental impact made for long term

cost effectiveness.

> Chlorination of Benzene, Senior Design

The project involved evaluation and selection of a feasible process,

material balance, energy balance and a preparation of PFD's and UFD's. It

also included analysis of fixed and variable cost estimations, site

selection, plant layout, and environmental safety considerations.

Conducted Breakeven Analysis and calculated return on investment and

time.
