Raghava Dasarathy has been Anellotech’s Senior Vice President of Research, Development and Engineering since April 2024. He joined the Company in 2013. As Director of Engineering he worked on process design, improvement, commercialization, and techno-economic evaluation of both Bio-TCat and Plas-TCat. Raghava served as technical lead/coordinator for the design, fabrication, and installation of the first-of-its-kind TCat-8 Demo plant in Silsbee, Texas. For Bio-TCat, from 2016-2019, Raghava served as lead for the on-site TCat-8 operations team of Anellotech and IFPEN engineers. He led the team’s efforts beginning with the commissioning of the TCat-8 plant including troubleshooting and unit modifications leading to successful sustained (7,500 hours) performance testing. Culmination of this effort was generation of the necessary data to develop the commercial plant design and process economics. Raghava then served as technical coordinator for Anellotech during the commercial design phase with IFPEN and Axens as well as the leading the effort on process/plant economic analysis and value engineering for the Bio-TCat technology.
For the now on-going Plas-TCat technology development, Raghava worked on conceptual design and developed the Plas-TCat process economic model. He also worked on modifying the TCat-8 unit for Plas-TCat operation, as well as upgrading equipment to improve safety, reliability, and performance as well as co-managing TCat-8 staffing and operations for the Plas-TCat campaign.
Today, Raghava leads the entire Plas-TCat development program, and coordinates technical activities with our partners Technip Energies and R Plus Japan.
Raghava started his career at a global EPC firm where he worked chemical and petrochemical plant design for several, international, large-scale projects. Raghava then moved into environmental project engineering (catalytic reduction of NOx/Sox) for gas-fired power plants.
Raghava has a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Georgia Tech and an M.S. from University of Alabama-Huntsville.
