▌ Energy and Materials Fundamental as well as application oriented research in the area of transport of heat, mass and momentum invariably need robust computational tools at various length and time scales. Our faculty are working on conduction and convection heat transfer, microwave heating, droplet microfluidic systems, developing solvers for …
▌ Molecular Simulations Faculty members in our department are working on materials from molecular scale to macroscopic scale for applications in energy conversion and for solving environmental problems. Using computational approaches and diverse set of experimental tools, materials are designed for a specific application by understanding physics, chemistry and mechanics …
▌Process systems engineering Using various optimization tools, data analysis, multivariate statistical analysis including time series analysis our faculty are involved in investigating undertraining propagation in information theory, combinatorial chemistry, development of medical devices, particle synthesis and in designing and controlling water distribution networks. These are accompanied computations for model developments, …
▌ Process Intensification Process intensification refers to a development that leads to a technology that is substantially smaller, cleaner, safer or more energy efficient. Faculty in our department working in this area, achieve process intensification either by improving the design or the operation of the equipment. Novel microfluidic systems, photocatalytic …
▌ Environment Research related to the Environmental Science and Engineering is carried out a large number of faculty members in Chemical Engineering at IIT-Madras. The areas of research can be broadly Classified into the following areas: • Development of Processes and Materials for the Managementof Waste and Environmental Resources • …
