As part of worldwide CleanTech competition, I worked in team of three students to develop an innovative solution in the area of “global warming and carbon footprint reduction”. Our project was on the “Development of a supercapacitor using carbon made from resin waste to promote the use of electric cars”. The process used for production of carbon was Pyrolysis, which is an industrial level reaction. We optimised the reaction conditions to maximise the production carbon after analysing graphs obtained from a journal. Through this project, I learnt about the Global Warming, Carbon Footprint offset, challenges in developing feasible solution to make electrical cars more feasible in developing countries. As Technical Lead for this project, in addition to technical aspects of Pyrolysis, Supercapacitor, energy storage, chemical reaction control and optimization, I also learnt about team building skills using “forming, storming, norming and performing” model, conflict resolution, writing skillset for research paper, work allocation, need for peer reviews and importance of mentorship, negotiation, work distribution based on team member skillset and team collaboration. I also developed research and analytical skills in finding a suitable solution.
