About

Dr. Tanjin Amin is a Lecturer in Chemical and Environmental Engineering at RMIT University. He specializes in Process System Engineering and Process Safety. His work connects process safety science with data-driven decision-making, suitable for diverse industries. Before joining RMIT, he served as a Postdoctoral Researcher and Lecturer at Texas A&M University, USA, where he co-led multiple industrially sponsored projects. His work supported reliable monitoring system development and safer deployment of hydrogen, ammonia, and carbon-capture systems in marine and offshore sectors. Currently, he is focusing on developing safer and reliable battery safety systems and intelligent safety management systems.

 

Dr. Amin’s research has produced over 30 peer-reviewed papers and earned international recognition, including a listing among the Stanford-Elsevier World’s Top 2% Scientists (2025), several cover-page articles in AIChE Journal, and top-cited awards from Process Safety Progress and The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering. During his PhD, he received many awards, including the prestigious Alexander Graham Bell Canada Graduate Scholarships-Doctoral (CGS-D) and Dean's Excellence Award from Memorial University of Newfoundland. 

 

With strong experience in stakeholder collaboration, Dr. Amin integrates computational modeling with experiments to create tools that improve regulatory compliance, operational resilience, and design safety. He has mentored undergraduate and graduate researchers, who are now working in major energy companies in the USA and Canada. Beyond academia, he serves as an editor for Safety in Extreme Environments. At RMIT, his mission is to connect academia and industry through applied safety analytics to enable next-generation energy systems cleaner, safer, and more reliable.
