Narayan Korde

Narayan is currently working as an Associate Director at Teva Pharmaceuticals Ltd., Mumbai. He has around 18 years of industrial experience in Energy Management, Global Engineering Projects and more than 500+ Utility design and consultancies globally. He is a Chemical Engineer from J.N.E. College, Cha. Sambhaji Nagar (formerly Aurangabad), Maharashtra and completed his M.Tech in Energy from Savitribai Phule (Pune) University, followed by MBA in Operations Management from ICFAI, Hyderabad.

Currently, he is pursuing PhD as a part-time student under Dr. Amol Deshpande at BITS Pilani, K K Birla Goa Campus.

PhD Thesis Topic: Techno-economic feasibility of flue gas waste heat recovery system integrated with heat pump for process oil-fired boiler

His research demonstrates the optimum waste heat recovery potential while avoiding the sulfur dew point-induced acidic corrosion irrespective of the process load variations and minimizing the bypassing of the hot flue gas from the process boilers. The study also explores the application of the heat pump to improve the overall boiler efficiency without impacting acidic corrosion. The work includes defining the industrial problem statement, designing and installing the proposed system and plant scale, collecting the data and its analysis to verify the differentiation in the key performance parameters between the conventional and the proposed modified system including the process modeling to generalize its application for similar systems

The research has resulted in two conference papers / posters.

Ridhish Kumar

Mr. Ridhish Kumar is native of Delhi-NCR. He completed his graduation with a degree of B.E. (Hons) Chemical  from BITS Pilani K K Birla Goa campus in 2019. He worked in the industry SRF Ltd. and later went on to pursue his entrepreneurial journey in the field of deep technology. After spending 3 years in startups and industry, he decided to join PhD at in the Department of Chemical Engineering at BITS Pilani K K Birla Goa campus under the supervision of Dr. Amol Deshpande.

Phd Topic: Investigation on achieving efficient operation performance of Rotary Kiln in Coke calcination processes: Modeling and simulation studies.

He is working on a project sponsored by Goa Carbon Ltd., Goa. His study focuses on developing a CFD model for Rotary kiln used in industry for coke calcination process. There are three zones inside Rotary kiln and for each section CFD model need to be developed, validated and CFD simulations need to be performed to predict the heat and mass transfer behaviour in each zone. And finally, integrating CFD models of all three zones to predict the overall behaviour of the kiln and validate the integrated model. Our aim is to study the effect of various input parameters on the Rotary kiln operation using the validated CFD model and propose optimum parameters for efficient operation.

Yubaraj Chakraborty from Kolkata, West Bengal, completed his B.Tech in Chemical Engineering from Indira Gandhi Institute of Technology, Sarang in 2025. During his undergraduate studies, he worked on polypropylene–graphite (PP–Gr) polymer composites and published a research paper in the Journal of Composite Science (MDPI). He worked as a Research Intern at CSIR-Institute of Minerals and Materials Technology (CSIR-IMMT), Bhubaneswar, where he carried out beneficiation of phosphate ores using eco-friendly froth flotation techniques, focusing on improving separation efficiency through sustainable processing methods.

He is currently pursuing his PhD under the  in the Department of Chemical Engineering at BITS Pilani, K. K. Birla Goa Campus.

Proposed PhD Topic:
Modeling and Simulation of a Novel Laser Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) Reactor for High-Purity Polysilicon Production.

Supervisor: Prof. Amol Deshpande

Co-Supervisor: Prof. S. D. Manjare

During his PhD, he will be working on an industry-sponsored project in collaboration with ASM-HHV Engineering Pvt. Ltd., focusing on advanced reactor modeling and CFD simulation for next-generation polysilicon manufacturing systems.
