Biography
I, Richa has completed my MSc in 2011 from Chaudhary Charan Singh University, Meerut, India and now doing my PhD since 2012 at CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory, Pune, India in Catalysis & Inorganic Chemistry Division under the guidance of Dr. Paresh L. Dhepe. My research work is focused on the replacement of soluble bases with (insoluble) heterogeneous base catalysts for the depolymerization of lignin, which would allow for easy separation of catalyst from the products and reuse. I have granted a patent for the same and manuscript is about to submitted. I also have the experience on synthesis of porous structured and amorphous materials etc.
