• Evaluated surface proton density using solid state-NMR, developed functionalized porous silica for chromatographic and gas storage/separation applications. • Studied literature and analysed historical data for structure elucidation of analysed porous catalytic support materials.

• Assisted in developing catalysts for methanol steam reforming and hydroformylation using liquid metal catalysts supported on solid supports. • Analysed chromatographic data from product stream to study performance of developed catalysts.

• Developed superior, sustainable products, delivering product superiority for 1MMT+ product markets. • Analysed products using physical, chemical and digital means, reducing delivery time of key value products by 8-12 weeks, • Developed a sustainability roadmap, delivering 2-3% improved biodegradability per use to improve product carbon footprint by 8-10%.
