Former activities

Obtained a patent from Japan for an invention of ‘Environmentally Ionic Reactor (EIR) for Waste to Energy Conversion’ as a result of the joint cooperation between professors from Tokyo Institute of Technology under the supervision of Prof. Kunio Yoshikawa and ECOCLE Japan Co., Ltd.
He played a leading role in developing the thermochemical conversion-processing computer codes and subsequently dioxin/soot/NOx models that were later employed in the known CFD software named COMMENT-Code.
