• 9 Months Internship in shell Technology Centre Bangalore

• Aim of the project: Design synthetic strategy for high surface area, high pore diameter and high pore volume

mesoporous material used as a support in catalysis. Incorporating a hetero atom in the material for catalytic

activity. Simple, easy to Scale up, reproducible methods. In the later part of the internship I was involved in

catalyst testing and physically involved in operations related to pilot plants.

Mentors: Dr. Laxmi Narasimhan (manager), Dr. Madhusudhan Rao, Dr. Vikrant Urade, Shell Technology

Centre Bangalore.

• Worked for CNCM (Centre for novel catalytic material).

• Catalyst synthesis

Design of experiment (DOE), synthesis of mesoporous material, surfactant chemistry, handling chemicals,

using muffle furnace for calcination, synthesis in HEL (computer controlled instrument for performing

reactions) programming and certification for running that equipment, filtration, Choice of surfactant,

Calculations and Hydrothermal treatment.

• Incorporating a heteroatom in a mesoporous material, Co precipitation, one pot synthesis, controlling the pH

of the system, pH meter, using Teflon reactors, hot plate, bulk preparation, hourly monitoring reaction, a pH

swing method for the incorporation of heteroatom.

Characterization Techniques used:

• Micromeritics (BET surface area measurement), Infrared spectroscopy, Raman, DSC, Mass spectroscopy,

TEM, NMR, XRD (wide angle and small angle), SEM EDX, ICP. Interpretation of the data from the techniques

used in the analysis.

• Catalyst Testing: Micro flow units having reactors in which catalyst is loaded and feed is tested on different

sets of temperature and pressure condition.

• Test plan, unit starts up and unit shutdown, P and ID of the unit (Pipe and instrumentation design), CBD

measurement (critical bulk density), Reactor loading, Pressure testing, Activation of catalyst, knowledge of

DCS (discrete control system), Supporting pilot plant team in all trouble shooting activities.

Past experience/and projects.

Challenges of the thesis problem Control the cluster size of SOMs and to observe shape morphism.

• Synthesis and design of Soft oxometalates (SOMs) using Paracetamol as a template (MS Thesis Title) under

supervision of Dr. C. Malla Reddy, Dr. Soumyajit Roy, Dr. Ayon Banerjee, Department of chemical sciences

and department of physical science IISER Kolkata.

• Choice of template, Synthesis of the material, Characterization, Excel log sheet of the entire experiment.

• Looking at the dynamics by putting SOMs in optical tweezers.

• Summer project in the field of crystal Engg crystallization techniques like solvent evaporation, solvent drop

grinding, vapor digestion and solid gas reaction

• Melamine and diacerene by Selecting different conformers in both the cases and using the solvent drop

grinding method for Co crystal formation. Analysis technique used were NMR, IR, single crystal and powder

XRD under supervision of Dr. C. Malla Reddy.

• Establishing the favoured geometry of C-H...O=C- interaction with CSD search (Cambridge Structure

Database)

• Small scale synthesis of Thiokol rubber Semester project for polymer course.

• Synthesis and characterization of Cu (II)-Schiff base Complexes (Salph ligands).

• Laboratory preparation of organic compounds purification and chromatography methods.

• Interests: Material chemistry, Inorganic synthesis, Heterogenous catalysis, mesoporous materials and

operating pilot plants.

• Computer skills: Windows, Chemdraw, Origin, Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft Excel.

• Other Skills: Teaching high school and intermediate students, Power Point presentation .

• Given power point presentation on various topics: Growing world of crystal forms (review paper), High

Pressure studies of pharmaceutical compounds and energetic materials, Carbon nanotubes loaded with

magnetic particles, N versus O arylation of aromatic compound, Synthesis of graft copolymers composed of

poly (ethylene oxide) as backbone and polylactide as side chains, Supramolecular polymers, Synthesis,

Structures, and Reactivity of Nickel Complexes Incorporating Sulfonamido-Imine Ligands. Extensive research

in reading papers for preparing power point presentation and clearing doubts at the end of the presentation.

• Language and degree of proficiency: English and Hindi (reading, writing and speaking), Bengali (learner

speaking).

Academic Projects

• Selected in extended merit list IIT JEE (2007), qualified al India Engg entrance exams, qualified state Engg

entrance exams 2007.

• INSPIRE SCHOLARSHIP: Eligible for this scholarship of Rs. 80,000 per annum from Department of Science and

Technology, India.

• Summer project in the synthesis of silver nano- particles at IIT KANPUR 2008.

• Summer project in the field of crystal egg, forming co-crystals in 2009 at IISER KOLKATA.

• Participation certificate in the scientific and cultural Fest, CULT VISION ’10 organized by the research

scholars’ association of the INDIAN ASSOCIATION FOR THE CULTIVATION OF SCIENCE.

• Participated in a poster presentation in ICOSSXX, IISC BANGALORE, INDIA 2011.

• Qualified GATE 2012.

• Selected for nine month internship at shell technology center Bangalore 2013.
