Md Tanjin Amin

Dr. Tanjin Amin is a Lecturer in Chemical and Environmental Engineering at RMIT University. His core research areas are Process Systems Engineering and System Safety, focusing on developing advanced methodologies for safety analysis, monitoring, risk assessment, and decision-making in complex industrial and energy systems. Before joining RMIT, Dr. Amin served as a Postdoctoral Researcher and Visiting Lecturer at Texas A&M University, USA, where he worked on several industry-supported research projects. During this period, he collaborated with leading international organisations, including the International Association of Oil & Gas Producers, the Center for Chemical Process Safety, NAMUR, and the American Bureau of Shipping. His research contributed to the development of monitoring and safety frameworks for emerging energy technologies, including battery energy storage, hydrogen, ammonia, and carbon capture systems in marine and offshore applications.

He has authored more than 35 peer-reviewed publications in leading journals such as AIChE Journal, Process Safety and Environmental Protection, Reliability Engineering & System Safety, Chemical Engineering Science, and Journal of Cleaner Production. His work has received international recognition, including being listed among the Stanford–Elsevier World's Top 2% Scientists (2025). Several of his studies have been highlighted as Feature Papers. He serves as Early-Career Editor for Process Safety for the Institution of Chemical Engineers' flagship journal, Process Safety and Environmental Protection, as well as an Editor of Safety in Extreme Environments and a member of the Editorial Board of Environmental Science and Sustainable Technology. His research has also produced technical reports for policymakers and industry stakeholders, including studies on carbon capture and storage safety.

During his doctoral studies at Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada, he received several competitive awards, including the Alexander Graham Bell Canada Graduate Scholarship–Doctoral (CGS-D) and the Dean's Excellence Award. He actively collaborates with industry, government, and regulatory organisations to translate research findings into practical safety solutions and has mentored undergraduate and graduate researchers who now work in major energy companies across North America. He is also an appointed member of Standards Australia Technical Committee EL-064, contributing to the development of Australian Standards and Australia's engagement in relevant IEC standardisation activities. Beyond academia, he has contributed to professional and community initiatives, including providing technical guidance through the Southwest Crossing Community Initiative in Houston, Texas, where he supported discussions on industrial safety and environmental risks.

At RMIT University, Dr. Amin aims to strengthen partnerships between academia, industry, and government while advancing safer, more reliable, and sustainable next-generation energy systems.
