Sr. Scientist- (Copper Team)

• Modelling the electro-refining or metallurgical process, model validation with plant data, and implementation of modelling outcome.
• Development and application of process fundamentals & engineering aspects of the electro-refining process for improvement in cathode quality.
• Design the experiments or pilot trials for hypothesis validation and guide the team members in execution of DOE.
• Developing the project scope, technical ideation, evaluating & proposing the technical solution. Publish the work in a conference & refereed journals.
• Project scoping & delivery, customer interactions, getting VOC, and documentation.
• Developing an understanding of the effect of upstream processes on the cathode quality/metal recovery and the consequences of cathode quality on the subsequent wire-rod quality.
