Research Interests

My research centers on advancing sustainable hydrogen production and renewable fuels through cutting-edge process modeling, techno-economic assessment (TEA), and life cycle analysis (LCA). By optimizing production pathways, my work aims to provide scientifically robust insights that inform strategic decision-making and shape effective policy recommendations.
