Research Interests

Research interest on CCS , Carbon capture and Storage, to mitigate the adverse impacts of excess carbon dioxide emission on the environment and climate change. The primary objective of carbon capture and storage research is to prevent the CO2 emissions form reaching the atmosphere, reducing their contribution to greenhouse effect and global warming.

Another Research interest is to understand the behavior of stored CO2 to ensure long-term stability and prevent leakage.
