Ozone Disinfection (Method: CFD; Tools: OpenFOAM etc.)
I developed a modeling framework by combining computational fluid dynamics (CFD) with a kinetics-based reaction model for ozone disinfection of drinking water. The modeling framework is capable of predicting chemical species distribution in reactors. It is a powerful and efficient tool for troubleshooting the existing contactors in water and wastewater treatment systems and improving future contactor designs.
