My name is Poulomi Das, and I have graduated with a Bachelors in Chemical Engineering from Jadavpur University, Kolkata, India in 2019. After that I worked with Honeywell UOP India Pvt. Ltd. as a Process Control and Instrumentation Engineer for a year. I have joined the Advanced Process and Energy Systems Engineering group at the West Virginia University in Fall 2021 to pursue PhD in Chemical Engineering. My research is focused on quantification of parametric uncertainty through Bayesian analysis – a project partnered with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA-NIFA). When I am not working, the majority of my leisure is spent in reading books, music or painting.

Bayesian Uncertainty Quantification of Mid-Atlantic Sustainable Biomass for Value-added Products Consortium
The principal objective of my project is to develop and validate plant-wide models to conduct engineering scalability analysis. The process models will be developed based on first-principles. Simultaneous data reconciliation and parameter estimation will be undertaken to validate these models using the generated lab-scale data. Since there is no commercial experience for these technologies, a scale-up uncertainty analysis will be performed by leveraging a modified Bayesian inference method. The plant-wide model will be developed by designing and optimizing the product upgrading and treatment section for producing market-ready products.
