  • Hello!
    I am
    Roushan

    Welcome
    Hey there visitor! I hope you're having (or had) a good day. Welcome to my digital home. I am a master's student at Institute of Chemical Technology (ICT), Mumbai. this space showcases my research, interests, and sorta promotes my hobbies. Do leave a comment or if you'd like to collaborate, kindly send a mail.

  • My research interests

    • Computational chemistry

      Computational chemistry & AI

      I am constantly use DFT and MD to find suitable catalysts and solvents for process energy applications. I am also developing generative AI to predict new crystal structures for plethora of applications (with a quirky approach :P). Happy material hunting!
    • Control and design strategies

      Control & design strategies

      I strongly believe that a mature product or piece of equipment should integrate automation and leverage multiple technologies. I actively work on hunting down boring process to automate them to an extent that it requires no human intervention. To complement this, I design innovative equipment that overcomes current limitations, utilizing CFD analysis and rapid prototyping norms.

      Reaction Engg &
      Electrochemistry

      I Passionately use electrochemistry as my primary tool for almost everything!! The principles of reaction engineering provide a rational framework to address complex problems, offering innovative and efficient solutions. Reaction engineering approach is a blessing!
