My research expertise is in rheology of gas hydrate slurries, droplet and particle size distribution, flow assurance in oil/gas flowlines. My research interests include studying the thermodynamic and kinetic properties of gas hydrates system. My current research works includes gas hydrate for technological applications such as desalination, separation, and energy storage.
