Sarupa Debnath

Hi! I am Sarupa Debnath and I am a chemical engineer with 5 years of experience in the petrochemical industry. I had the opportunity to work on the commissioning of the largest gas cracker unit in India, which provided me with valuable hands-on experience in the field.

During my time in the industry, I developed a keen interest in advanced process control and optimization. This led me to pursue a Ph.D. in the same field, and I am currently in my 4th year of doctoral studies. My research focuses on developing advanced control strategies for improving process efficiency and performance using different machine- learning approaches.

Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have honed my skills in process engineering, data analysis, and problem-solving. I am passionate about applying my knowledge and expertise to drive operational excellence in industrial settings.

In addition to my technical skills, I have also developed strong communication and teamwork abilities through collaborations with colleagues and industry partners. I believe in continuous learning and staying updated with the latest advancements in the field.I am eager to explore opportunities where I can leverage my skills and make a meaningful impact
