Dr Eric Sanjaya is a researcher in the Faculty of Engineering at The University of Sydney. His research focuses on multidisciplinary modelling in chemical engineering, with an emphasis on reducing environmental impacts and improving industrial performance. His work translates research into practical solutions for industry, government, and academia, in areas such as waste treatment, process engineering, and the circular economy. His postdoctoral research investigated non-thermal plasma reactors to improve waste-derived syngas, supporting the development of waste-to-fuel pathways.
