Research Interests
My research interests focus on the pyrolysis and gasification of plastic waste, exploring how thermal conversion processes can transform plastics into valuable compounds or energy. I study the decomposition mechanisms of plastics, utilizing chemical kinetic models to predict product distribution under different conditions and integrating fluid dynamics to optimize reaction processes.
