Name : Shahabaz Valmik Pinjari
Designation : Project Assistant
Brief Background :
I am currently working on production of biofuels majorly focusing on biohydrogen and bioethanol generation using anaerobic microorganisms and diverse lignocellulosic biomass types, including agricultural residues aiming towards waste valorisation. My work emphasizes optimizing microbial fermentation processes to maximize yield while addressing challenges related to biomass recalcitrance. I actively chemical and biological pretreatment strategies that enhance cellulose and hemicellulose accessibility.
