Prof. Jayasree Biswas’s research interests are mainly in the area of high­temperature kinetic studies for both ferrous and nonferrous systems (both experimental and mathematical modelling) and metal recycling. During her Masters, she worked on developing dynamic model for BOF steelmaking process, where she developed a dephosphorization model based on the thermodynamics and reaction kinetic principles[1]. The model was able to capture the P reversion phenomenon with blowing time in the steelmaking. During her Ph.D., she worked on decarburization kinetics of liquid Fe­C droplets in oxidizing slag, of various electrical conductivities. Her experimental work was mainly focused on capturing the compositions relevant to HISARNA process(Tata Steel Europe). She identified the enhancement of decarburization kinetics with increasing slag electrical conductivity, due to faster oxygen transport. She also developed a kinetic model to predict the oxygen transport kinetics[2]. Her studies also revealed the influence of competitive adsorption (O,S) on refining reaction kinetics at slag/metal interface. During her post­doctoral research, she explored the area of battery recycling and investigated the sulfation roasting­water leaching route for selective extraction of metals from various battery scraps and successfully extracted 99% Li from LIB (LCO) black mass and 65% REEs from NiMH scrap[3]. Apart from that, she also explored the molten oxide electrolyte route for ferrochrome production from chromite pellets and briefly worked on carburization of HDRI pellets. Currently, at IIT Bombay, she is continuing working in both the areas of metal refining and metal recycling.
