Dr. Dogan research interests lie in the area of process metallurgy. Her research has focused on kinetics and thermodynamics of chemical reactions in steelmaking process using modelling and high temperature experimental techniques. Dr. Dogan and her research team are currently investigating ways to optimise the current practices during steel refining processes and suggest new techniques to produce the third generation steel to help steelmakers address some of the issues in environmental and economic sustainability such as energy intensity, material efficiency and alternative production methods.
