Welcome to Prof. Ajay K. Ray's Research Group
on
"Engineering
of Chemical Reactions & Processes"
Our Research Laboratories (Integrated Multifunctional Reactor-Separator & Band-Engineered Solar Photocatalysis labs) are equipped with a variety of experimental rigs, analytical devices, characterization equipment and instrumentation for synthesis, characterization, purification, analysis and evaluation of materials and nanomaterials including, pharmaceuticals, catalysts, adsorbents, etc.
Our Facilities are open to provide analytical and material testing services on industrial and research and development projects and also to promote research collaborations with industries. We have many instruments including TOC, GC, GCMS, HPLC, UV Spectrometer, Polarimeter, CD Detector, etc. and have access to many other state-of-the-art analytical and characterization facilities within the department, faculty and university.
Our knowledgeable technical staffs and researchers provide consistent, accurate and comprehensive analytical services in a friendly environment and at affordable rates.
