Dr Kabane has synthesized novel ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents that has successfully applied in the separation of thiophene from octane and hexadecane mixtures as modern form of fuels. His expertise encompasses investigating their thermodynamic properties in liquid mixtures using both experimental techniques and computational methods such as COSMO-RS, COSMO-SAC, NRTL modelling, and DFT calculations. He also applies these solvents for corrosion mitigation. Dr Kabane is an active member of the American Chemical Society (ACS) and has presented as an eminent speaker at international conferences. He has authored over 40 publications. Partnerships with national and international scholars will remain central, ensuring that research outcomes are both globally relevant and locally impactful and leads to sustainable, high-performance solvents for industrial, environmental and biomedical applications.
