i am a final year M tech (environmental engineering) student at Indian institute of technology roorkee.
Sir, after M.tech i want to join CDM industry. My query is is there any specialized course required after my M.tech to follow my dream, If so please let me know the course name and institution.
I am sorry for such a delayed reply. My major is in Natural resource Economics and I no one is working in Post combustion technology in my department as we just study about those technology to aid us in our reserach. Dr. Brian J. Anderson, a professor from the Department of Chemical Engineering (WVU) is currently working on pre-combustion and post-combustion techniques.

I am Prateek from IIT Kharagpur, India. I am presently on my training period at Italy over CCS project. I have sussesfully model a simulation over carbon capture and improved the efficiency of capture part to 97% and writing a paper over it and also optimize the pipeline transportation network for CO2 sequestration in northern part of Italy. I want to implement all my work in India too, with the collabration of many industries.
Best Regards,

Thank you for your interest and your comment.
I have background in both of Reservoir Engineering (Master) and Chemical Engineering (PhD), which make me comfortable to talk in both area of capture and storage of CO2. I have 6 years industrial experience in oil and gas industry. I was working in Petrochemical company and for that specific process CO2 was a by product of process. It was important to remove CO2 from product gas. In that time we were using ammonia to separate CO2 from other product gases. Later on ammonium carbonate which was very unstable material was used to produce ammonium sulphate which mostly used as fertilizer.
My PhD topic was to investigate more detail in extraction oil from Oilsands minerals, which deposited in Alberta- Canada. During my research, I tried to use CO2 in oilsands extraction process. Right now I am preparing proposals for my own research. And one of the topic which I believe it worth to concentrate is converting CO2 to valuable product.
Fisher Tropsch process efficiently were used in south Africa during Apartheid regime. I believe with knowledge and technology that we have in hand right now with some more investigation and research, we will be able to use CO2 for useful applications and we will be able to convert the trash to valuable product, at least it is my dream and hope (lol).
I appreciate all efforts of peoples which created this forum, I think this is very nice environment to exchange the ideas and share knowledge’s and new developments without travelling for conferences (am I sound lazy? lol). At least I hope we can bring values for this forum.
