The Faculty of Chemical Engineering & Technology (FKTK), Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), continues to strengthen its international research network through a research attachment undertaken by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mohd Sharizan Md Sarip at the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Queen’s University Belfast (QUB), United Kingdom. The visit was supported by a prestigious grant awarded by the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), UK.
The attachment focused on collaborative research related to the sustainable extraction of plant-based proteins from rice bran, an abundant agricultural by-product in rice-producing regions such as Perlis. The project explores the application of Green Chemistry approaches, particularly Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES), to develop environmentally friendly processes for producing high-value protein ingredients with potential applications in the food and nutraceutical industries.
During the visit, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mohd Sharizan Md Sarip engaged in knowledge-sharing activities with researchers at QUB and explored opportunities for future collaboration in sustainable biomass utilisation, circular economy initiatives, and green processing technologies. The engagement also provided access to advanced research facilities and expertise in chemistry and chemical engineering.
This collaboration reflects FKTK’s commitment to advancing internationally recognised research and building strategic partnerships with leading institutions worldwide, further enhancing UniMAP’s global research visibility and impact.
