Muhammad Irfan Email and Phone Number
Former result-oriented Process Engineer at Nestle with over 10 years of experience ensuring health and safety, and implementing effective solutions to breakdowns by solving technical problems. Proficient in biomass management and Lean process optimization, process simulation, designing and developing wastewater treatment systems, biomass boiler operation, equipment preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, and project support. Successfully improved industrial services-utilities and food processing plant performance (17% efficiency) using tools like TPM and Lean process improvement. Key strengths include being flexible, a problem solver, time management, and an analytical thinker. Now interested in carbonated beverage, and powder handling process design.(2013-2022)Erasmus+ Master's thesis research at Wageningen University has equipped me with new solutions for biomass management and anaerobic wastewater treatment (UASB reactors), as well as expertise in optimizing food processing, particularly in extrusion for food products and plant-based meat. Following my Master's thesis, I pursued Erasmus+ internships ( 6+6 months) at The Kingfish Company in Zeeland and Unilever -Unilever Foods Innovation Centre - Hive, Netherlands, gaining valuable hands-on experience and insight into sustainable food production processes and biomass management systems respectively. Ready to make an impact to be proud of - for food, people, and the planet.( 2022- 2024)
