Process Scale-Up & Innovation • Collaborated with R&D teams to transition lab-scale trials to total production in projects focused on cost reduction, new product development, and specialty fiber. • Supported OPEX reduction projects by minimizing raw material usage and byproduct formation. • Provided technical troubleshooting and analysis to minimize downtime and ensure smooth integration during scale-up. • Developed process models to improve efficiency. • Conducted post-trial analysis and prepared detailed reports for continuous improvement. Individual Projects 1. Soft Sensor Model for Impurity Detection in Filter • Developed a real-time impurity prediction model using data-driven and analytical approaches, improving filtration by continuous monitoring. • Developed the model by integrating training samples' stroke pressure, flow rate, viscosity, and impurity data. 2. Batch Reactor Event Detection & Performance Analysis • Automated event detection in batch reactors, integrating Python for data capture and performance analysis. • Leveraged event data to identify patterns and optimize reactor operations, improving product consistency. 3. Automated Dashboard for Quality Control • Designed a dashboard using Python. Automated data construction from multiple sources and performed real-time monitoring of crucial lab parameters, streamlining decision-making processes. • Ensured clean and consistent data through automated error correction, improving quality control insights. 4. Pulp making from pulp lot wrapping sheet • Conducted experiments to produce dissolvable-grade pulp from alternative raw material sources, mainly optimizing product quality. • Designed experiments to identify the best processes and pitched this solution as an alternative raw material to reduce waste and cut costs. 5. Dissolution kinetics study of viscose • Conducted experiments to improve quality and reduce impurity levels in viscose.
