Engineering Department, VGEC, Chandkheda, since November 2022.
5 years of work experience as Assistant Professor,
Chemical Engineering Department, GEC, Bhuj from July 2017- October 2022.
I have 3.5 years of experience in a
comprehensive analytical testing services for the identification and assessment
of environmental contaminates. Worked on the MSD Chemstation software (The
computer system interfaced to the MS for environmental applications) in which analytical
methods (The method, based on U.S Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) method
8260C, includes sample preparation and analysis to determine the approximate
concentration of volatile organic constituents in the sample.) for the
isolation, detection and quantitative analysis of volatiles, semi-volatiles and
pesticides in aqueous/water and soil/sediment samples. I can manage samples on
instrument (Based on a purge and trap GC(Gas Chromatograph)/Mass Spectrometer
and GC/ECD (Electron capture Detection)) and after quanting calculate results
and generate reports according client requirements.

PhD Thesis:
Co-pyrolysis of Printed circuit Boards and Cotton Stalk for Fuel oil Production
Guided By: Dr. Shina Gautam, Professor at SRICT, Ankleshwar, UPL University
In this research, cotton stalk (CS) as biomass is used in different composition with PCB, and its effects on chemical and physical characteristics of pyrolysis oils are evaluated, as well as possible reaction pathway of brominated epoxy resin of PCB and reduced toxicity in co-pyrolyzed products are explained.
M.E Thesis:
Silicone Braided Hose
Guided By: Prof. Rupande N. Desai HOD at L.D.C.E(Rubber Dept.)
In this project I have made food grade
Silicone Braided Hose which has excellent performance characteristics at
extreme high and low temperatures. The project explains the basic manufacturing
process of silicone, Braiding technology, formulation to get better properties,
test properties and cost estimation.
M.E. Project:
Thermoplastic Elastomers
Thermoplastic elastomers are novel
constructional polymers, which are physically cross linked materials made up of
a thermoplastic and an elastomer. This paper reviews the history, physical,
chemical, mechanical, electrical characteristics, advantages and uses of these
materials.
Graduate Projects:
H-Acid
H-acid has long been manufactured and used as an intermediate for the production of dyes and pigments, and is the most important intermediates of naphthalene series. In this I have done Material and Energy Balance along with mechanical design, Cost estimation and pollution prevention.
Biomass Fuel Power Plant
Biomass is the most common form of
renewable energy, by which we can achieve the changes required to address the
impact of global warming. In this seminar report Biomass power plant
Thermodynamic components of power plant, electricity from it and uses and
future scope, etc. are described in a right manner.
