“With its strong commitment to sustainability, I feel fortunate to be a part of CORNELL,” Bora says.
Raaj is from Pune, India where he first learned to appreciate the environment from a key instructor. His passion for sustainability and bird watching pushed him to pursue Chemical Engineering with the goal to apply his skills on sustainability analysis in his home country, just like the scientists who first inspired him.
Raaj’s research in the You Lab focuses on modeling thermochemical technologies along with Life Cycle Assessment and Techno-Economic Analysis to find better ways to treat both food waste and wastewater biosolids.
