About

My research interests focus on sustainable process engineering with an emphasis on green extraction, biomass valorization, and advanced separation technologies. I work extensively on supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO₂) extraction to enhance the recovery of bioactive compounds, supported by thermodynamic modeling, process optimization, and integration within biorefinery systems. I am also interested in converting agro-industrial residues—especially palm waste—into functional materials such as biochar and activated carbon for wastewater treatment, supported by detailed material and energy balances, techno-economic assessment, and life-cycle evaluation. My work extends to adsorption, membrane-based purification, and hybrid processes, with growing attention to AI-assisted modeling for process prediction and intensification. Overall, my research aligns with global sustainability goals and UAE Vision 2031 through innovations that promote clean water, low-carbon extraction, and circular resource utilization.
