I scale up chemical processes and improve safety, monitoring, and recovery economics for industrial operations.
CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I've supported polymer-purification scale-up for high-purity semiconductor manufacturing at DuPont, connecting lab experiments with pilot-plant and industrial operations.
I use Aspen Plus, LIMS, FactoryTalk View, and Power BI to model process performance, support real-time monitoring, and strengthen reproducible documentation. I've also contributed to PSSR and PHA/HAZOP reviews, root-cause investigations, SOPs, commissioning, and continuous-improvement work.
For a Worley Advisian-advised ammonia-recovery capstone, I led a hydrolyzer-integrated wastewater recovery design that eliminated a $32.5M annual disposal cost and delivered an estimated $27M NPV with a 23% IRR.
