About

With over 7 years of experience in both research and industrial engineering in the energy and environmental industries, my expertise spans across various areas, including “Carbon dioxide capture and utilization; Process design and optimization; Life cycle analysis; Techno-economic analysis; Hydrogen production (i.e., blue, grey, and green); Thermal conversion (i.e., pyrolysis, dark fermentation, and gasification); Artificial Intelligence, Advanced Manufacturing; Power-to-X; and Waste to wealth transformation”. My passion for innovation and research has led me to publish over 50 highly impactful research works in collaboration with experts from Asia, Europe, and Oceania, focusing on the field of energy and environmental. My international collaborative work with experts from Asia, Europe, and Oceania has resulted in publications in some prestigious renewable energy journals such as Progress in Energy and Combustion science, Trends in Biotechnology, Renewable Sustainable Energy Reviews, Chemical Engineering Journal, Journal of Cleaner Production, and Bioresource Technology.
