Om Mihani: Process Simulation & Design Portfolio

M.Sc. Chemical Biotechnology candidate focusing on Process Design, Advanced Simulation (Pyomo, DWSIM), and Green Energy/Biotech applications for EPC and Chemicals.

This repository contains reports, code, and summaries for my most relevant research, internships, and course projects, highlighting my expertise in process optimization and computational modeling.

Featured Projects

This section showcases projects most relevant to Process Engineer roles in the EPC and advanced manufacturing sectors.

I. Core Process Design & Simulation

PROCESS INTENSIFICATION FOR ETHYL LACTATE PRODUCTION (NDA-Sensitive Summary) Full-cycle conceptual and practical process design utilizing techno-economic analysis to identify optimal process configurations for cost-effective pilot-scale implementation.

CONCEPTUAL DESIGN OF A TERT-BUTYL ALCOHOL (TBA) PLANT Spearheaded process optimization, incorporating extractive distillation to overcome technical separation challenges and developing a comprehensive plant design package.

CARBON DISULPHIDE PRODUCTION Leveraged DWSIM to simulate the CS2 plant, achieving 99.9% end-product purity and incorporating a recovery unit that resulted in a 30% waste reduction.

EXTRACTION OF CO2 FROM FLUE GAS Developed a mathematical model for efficient Carbon Capture via chemical absorption into amines, analyzing flue gas CO2 feasibility as a critical feedstock source.

SUSTAINABLE BIOETHANOL PRODUCTION Simulation and optimization led to a separation method 5 times cheaper and 7% more energy-efficient than conventional methods, utilizing a multi-feedstock strategy.

II. Research & Advanced Modeling

For deeper insight into my technical capabilities, the full directory includes projects demonstrating expertise in Molecular Dynamics (GROMACS/Towhee), Advanced CFD (OpenFOAM), and specialized applications in Pharmaceuticals (Pfizer Internship) and Biomedical fields.

CHEMOENZYMATIC MODELLING FOR ENZYME IMMOBILIZATION Developing a computational suite to predict and optimize optimal spatial immobilization distributions for enzyme cascades, ensuring predictive accuracy for Chemical Biotechnology applications.

CALIBRATION OF POWDERED DRUGS Optimized granular simulations in ROCKY using coarse-graining and Python scripting to expedite powder calibration by 30% for industrial models.

THERMOACOUSTIC COOLING OF THERMAL HOTSPOTS Utilized CFD simulations to devise a novel cooling approach that improved energy efficiency by $23 \times$ and lowered cooling costs by over $170 \times$.

Additional Projects: Hydrogen Hydrates, Stability of Nanobubbles, Genomic Analysis, Biosensor Design, etc.
