About

Nikil Kapur is a leading figure in microfluidics and process engineering, best known for pioneering automated droplet microfluidic platforms that revolutionise chemical synthesis and reaction optimisation. His work integrates high-throughput experimentation with precise fluid control, enabling rapid screening and efficient scaling of complex reactions. Kapur’s most cited research, including his influential paper on droplet flow platforms for automated reaction screening (2024, 3 citations), demonstrates how these systems accelerate discovery while minimising waste—a critical advance for sustainable chemistry. Beyond this, his contributions span multiphase flow dynamics, lab-on-a-chip technologies, and industrial process intensification, with a strong emphasis on translating fundamental fluid mechanics into practical, scalable tools. His research has garnered widespread recognition for bridging the gap between academic innovation and real-world chemical manufacturing, earning citations across engineering, chemistry, and biotechnology fields. Kapur’s work not only provides researchers with powerful new methodologies but also inspires a generation of engineers to rethink how chemical processes are designed, tested, and deployed.
