I graduated with a PhD in Chemical Engineering from Shiraz University in 2017. My dissertation was about ''Investigation of the effect of smart water on the asphaltene precipitation in the oil reservoirs''. I have been working as an Associate Professor in the Chemical Engineering Department at Azad University, Shiraz Branch since 2022 and as an Assistant Professor between 2015 to 2022. I have experience teaching different courses of Chemical Engineering like Unit Operations 1 & 2, Heat Transfer, Plant Design and Economics, petrochemical processes, and so on. I had various projects on the effect of nanoparticles for inhibition of asphaltene precipitation, the effect of nanoparticles for enhancement of solar still yields for freshwater production, modeling the solubility of various compounds in supercritical CO2, and publishing review papers on the adsorption of heavy metals from wastewater. I have published more than 25 papers in ISI journals.

My research interests are mainly in the fields of Bioenergy Carbon Capture & Storage (BECCS), oil and gas reservoirs, Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), renewable energies, nanotechnology, and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).

I am currently working as a postdoc fellowship on the carbon capture project. The main aim is to measure different properties of potassium carbonate as a solvent in the process of CO2 absorption and train a model to predict the solvent loading and concentration using various physical properties such as pH, density, refractive index, and electrical conductivity. Reduction of CO2 emission into the atmosphere as one of the main greenhouse gases is crucial and the main goal in Sweden is to prevent warming up the climate anymore. As a result, the separation of CO2 from combustion gases from different plants is a necessity.
