He is currently supervising five PhD students.

He has several years of expertise in waste management, effluent treatment, and waste to bioenergy. He has secured four grants from funding agencies in India and has several national and international collaborations. He has recently ventured into the thermochemical routes for biomass degradation and is deeply involved in modelling and simulation of the gasification/oxidation processes. He also does extensive research on anaerobic digestion and on other topics related to energy and decarbonisation. He is currently involved in 3 projects funded from RED England, IETF, UK, etc.
