Biography
Dr Milani was awarded his PhD in Chemical Engineering from The University of Sydney in 2012. Earlier, he held a Master degree in Environmental Engineering Management from UTS and a Bachelor degree in Mechanical Engineering (Power division) from the University of Aleppo. Dia received several awards during his studies, including being a member of the Dean's List at UTS in 2006 for his outstanding academic achievements, the Alexander Hugh Thurburn Scholarship in 2008, and the innovation and enterprise award from the School of Economic and Business at the University of Sydney in 2011. He has been involved in several research and pilot scale projects and energy auditing panels. His research focuses on the water-energy-emission nexus with primary emphasis on novel technologies in renewable energy, energy storage, carbon capture, CO2 utilization, waste management, and solar-assisted power cycles. Dia has joined CSIRO in 2017 as a postdoctoral research fellow within the Sustainable Carbon Technologies group. Dia has initiated a new area of R&D for the Energy Technologies Research Program by transforming the concept of solar-assisted carbon capture (SA-CC) technology to the new concept of ‘solar-powered’ carbon capture (SP-CC). Dia’s goal is to autonomise carbon capture processes away from fossil fuels and grid connection to be fully sustainable and independent technologies. Dr Milani has recently been awarded the prestigious CSIRO’s Julius Career Award in recognition of his exceptional work in pushing cutting-edge technologies.
