PRN No. Name Project Topic Abstract

1. 10303320171250710001 Akshay palkar CO2 Absorption Using Amine Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is one
Solvent in Wetted Wall Column of the options that can enable utilization
of fossil fuels with lower CO2 emissions.
Of the different technologies for CO2
capture, capture of CO2 by chemical
absorption is the technology that is
closest to commercialization. In this
framework we evaluate the mass transfer
performance of amine solvent using
Wetted Wall Column (WWC).

2. 10303320171250710002 Urvashi sarode Simulation and analysis of Packed bed columns are multiphase
Hydrodynamics and Heat reactors in which gas and liquid phases
Transfer in Packed Bed using flow over a solid packing.In this project
Fluent software numerical study of flow behavior through
structured packing of non-overlapping
spheers in a cylindrical geometry has
been carried out using a commercially
available CFD package. The pressure
drop, velocity distribution and void
fraction are studied numerically when the
gas and liquid inlet velocity is changed.
3. 10303320171250710003 Afifa dakhway Phenol degradation using Phenol is one of the most common toxic
Pseudomonas florescence and environmental pollutants that originate
Pseudomonas putida mainly from industrial processes. It must
be removed from the environment. The
biodegradation methods for the treatment
of phenol contaminated wastewater are
more effective and less cost. In the
present study, two novel strains

contaminated with phenol from

wastewater was investigated for its
biodegradation potential.
4. 10303320171250710004 Akshay gurav CFD simulation of shell and tube Shell and tube heat exchangers are most
heat exchanger using Ansys Fluent commonly used in chemical industries as
it suits high pressure application .The
objective is to study the flow and
temperature inside the shell and tube
using Ansys Fluent tool and overall heat
transfer is calculated for different
temperature ranges.
5. 10303320171250710005 Akash bodekar ‘Esterification of Acetic Acid with In this project work I am studying batch
Cyclohexanol kinetics of esterification reaction by
varying different parameters such as
temperature, mole ratio, catalyst loading
etc.

6. 10303320171250710006 Akshaya mane Esterification Reaction Of Benzoic Esterification reaction between benzoic
Acid And Methanol acid and methanol carried out in absence
and presence of catalyst to give the
product of methyl benzoate and water.
kinetic study of esterification reaction is
carried out at various parameter such as
temperature, mole ratio, rpm etc.

Cyclohexanone over Amberlyst 15 Cyclohexanone have vital importance in
Chemical Industry. Catalytic self-
Condensation of cyclohexanone is
conducted in a batch reactror by using

AMBERLYST 15 as catalyst. Sample of

mixture at different time period are
analysed by using GC-FID.

8. 10303320171250710008 Shital jadhav Preperation of Rice Bran Oil from Rice bran, an underutilized rice
Rice Bran processing by-product, is a promising
source for food and biodiesel oil
production and can also be used to
produce protein for use in human food
products. The overwhelming majority of
all vegetable oils are extracted using
solvent extraction, and the most widely
used solvent is hexane.

9. 10303320171250710009 Khushbu Sharma Optimization and Characterization Bioplastic are a form of plastic derived
of Degradable Bioplastic using from renewable biomass source such as
Corn starch starch. For the production of TPS
(Thermoplastic starch)/PLA (polylactic
acid) glycerol is added as a plasticizer.
Degradability of starch based bioplastic
is checked by using soil degradation and
bacterial degradation.

Bacillus Subtilis using Engine oil compounds produced on living surfaces
as the Substrate mostly bacteria. The bacteria (Bacillus
Subtilis) was isolated from engine oil
contaminated soil and further
characterization, screening, growth
studies were observed under different
parameters and optimization was carried
out using physical and biochemical tests.

Distillation. used commonly as mixed solvents. It is

of great significance to recover and
purify them from process mixture. An
Azeotropic behavior of the binary
mixture of ethanol and water is observed
in the process of recovery by distillation.
Extractive distillation with ethylene
glycol represents the most competitive
alternative for anhydrous ethanol
production.

production of Ethanol from
microorganisms, animal cells and or plant
Amylum
cells for the production of materials, is a
bioprocess. Fermentation, is one of the
oldest chemical process known to man, is
used to make a variety of products,
including foods, flavorings, beverages,
pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. The
objective of present work is to develop
simple model of fermentation process, To
develop simple models of enzymatic
hydrolysis for bioreactor scale up and
industrial applications, To compare the
yield and productivity of ssf and two step
