Current profession
Current professional activities type:ResearchEfficient and sustainable process(es) for acid separations from fermentative carboxylic acids is necessary for high recovery and yields. The work seeks to develop new separation strategies for carboxylic acids and their products from dilute aqueous effluents in sugarcane bioprocessing. Reactive extraction which is an emerging separation process will be explored.
