Dineshkumar Muniyappan
Reseach Scholar, Department of Mechanical Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli · National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli
Biography
A highly motivated, dynamic, and research-oriented professional with Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineer gained experience in synthesizing heterogeneous catalysts, specifically waste-derived iron-oxide, and bi-metal doped catalysts for converting waste biomass and plastic waste into fuel-grade hydrocarbons through microwave pyrolysis. Further, hands-on experience in designing laboratory-scale microwave pyrolysis reactors into a pilot-scale unit; completed a master’s degree in Thermal Engineering to develop and refine multitudinous skill sets in thermochemical processing for waste valorisation and bioenergy generation - now ready to apply those skills in an organization of eminence.
Education
Ph.D in Mechanical Engineering at National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India.
