Brief Statement of research work
My research focuses on nanotechnology, biohydrogen production, and environmental remediation, with an emphasis on sustainable energy solutions. I specialize in optimizing acidogenic fermentation and electrocatalytic processes to enhance biohydrogen yield and efficiency. Additionally, I investigate the application of nanomaterials in wastewater treatment and bioremediation, particularly for heavy metal removal. My work also includes the synthesis and characterization of bio-composites for environmental remediation. Through these efforts, I aim to develop innovative and sustainable technologies addressing global energy and environmental challenges.
