Operational AI for resilient water & low-carbon infrastructure.

I build law-constrained, deployment-ready models for wastewater treatment plants: forecasting, anomaly detection, and climate-stress resilience — bridging process engineering, microbial systems, and Scientific Machine Learning.

Counterintuitive principles
  • Auditability beats hero metrics: decision-ready evidence over peak numbers.
  • Constraints are a feature: daily lab sampling becomes a modeling advantage, not a weakness.
  • Deployment is part of research: if it can’t run reliably, it doesn’t count.
Forecasting (multi-horizon)
Anomaly & fault detection
Resilience metrics (4R/CRPS)
Process-informed features
Uncertainty & robustness
Digital twin thinking (audit-ready)

About

My work sits between hard-core process engineering and reliable AI. I build models that respect physical/biological constraints, remain robust under plant realities (daily sampling, sensor drift, wet-weather shocks), and translate predictions into decision-relevant signals.

Research identity

Operational SciML for resilient water infrastructure: forecasting + anomaly detection + resilience metrics, grounded in process memory, kinetics, and climate-regime shifts. In parallel, I contribute to sustainable carbon management (CCUS/ICCU).

Focus

What I build (research-grade, deployment-aware)

WWTP process intelligence

Operational forecasting, anomaly detection, and decision-ready monitoring across multi-contaminant signals and operational states.

Resilience under climate stress

Regime-aware evaluation for wet-weather shocks, heatwaves, drought/low-flow, and recovery dynamics with interpretable metrics.

Low-carbon systems & CCUS/ICCU

Integrated capture–conversion thinking, audit-ready TEA/LCA hooks, and experimental sorbent work aimed at realistic conditions.

Demos

Deployed prototypes (decision-ready, not slideware)
Live Streamlit Render Net-zero decision support

K-NetZero Compass

A deployable decision-support demo for net-zero planning. Built to be transparent, auditable, and extendable (future LCA/TEA hooks and uncertainty-aware comparisons). (Free tier may sleep/wake.)

Coming Audit-ready Digital twin

Next demos (in build)

A set of small, deployable prototypes: anomaly monitoring dashboards, resilience scoring (4R/CRPS), and carbon-accounting workflows designed for reproducibility and real adoption.

Projects

Filter by category (apps · AI · process · CCUS)
WWTP resilience Active Forecasting + anomaly

Operational SciML for WWTP water-quality resilience under climate stress

Multi-contaminant forecasting and anomaly detection for real plant conditions: daily sampling constraints, wet-weather shocks, regime shifts, and sensor drift. Outputs are decision-ready (risk-of-violation, early warnings, recovery metrics).

Environmental biotechnology In build Genomics-ready

Pathway-aware monitoring: linking process states to microbial function signals

A framework to connect operational trajectories (DO/ORP, loading, salinity, temperature, wet-weather memory) to microbial pathway indicators (nitrification/denitrification/Anammox proxies), designed to integrate metagenomic/16S features as “biological sensors.”

Biogas · Anaerobic digestion Proposal-ready Process modeling

AD/biogas process intelligence for stability, VFA risk, and energy recovery

Predictive monitoring for AD stability (VFA/alkalinity/pH dynamics), early warnings for upsets, and controllable levers for energy-positive operation. Built to be compatible with lab-scale reactor datasets and biotech workflows.

Carbon capture / CCUS Published ICCU/ICCC

Integrated CO₂ capture–conversion (ICCU): review + experimental sorbent work

Published review on sustainable CO₂ capture, conversion, and integrated strategies. Experimental work in preparation on nanoparticle-augmented diatom biosilica sorbents: humidity/temperature robustness and recyclability across cycles.

Deployment Live Streamlit

K-NetZero Compass (deployed demo)

A deployed prototype for net-zero decision support. Designed as a foundation for uncertainty-aware comparisons and audit-ready reporting.

Dashboarding Coming Resilience metrics

4R/CRPS resilience scoring dashboard (prototype)

A decision layer that converts predictions into operational resilience: time-in-safe, headroom, recovery, and actionable intervention signals—built to remain interpretable under stress regimes.
