Area of
Interests/Specialization
Environmental/Analytical/Aquatic/Surface Chemistry
Water Quality Monitoring, Modeling, Assessment and
Remediation
Remediation and Encapsulation of Priority Pollutants from water
Development of low cost adsorbents/magnetic adsorbents/magnetic
nanosorbents/magnetic nanoparticles
Assessment and Remediation of Arsenic, Fluoride,
Nitrate, Iron, Pharmaceuticals from water/wastewater
Biorenewable Resources:
Bio-oils/Biorefineries
Environmentally benign wood preservatives
Current
R&D/S&T Activities and Research Interests
The current emphasis of my research involves
Water/wastewater
monitoring, assessment, modeling and remediation using physicochemical
treatment methods (adsorption, ion-exchange, flocculation, froth flotation,
filtration etc.)
Tailoring
of activated carbons during activation and reactivation for the remediation and
encapsulation of trace toxic metals and organic micro-pollutants from water
Novel
routes for the preparation of Magnetic Activated Carbons (MACs) possessing high
surface area, high sorption capacity and rapid reaction kinetics capable of
removing Priority Pollutants from water
Surface-engineered magnetic nanoparticles for
the removal of organic/inorganic pollutants
from water
Biosorption
of heavy metals from water
Reuse
of industrial solid wastes and byproducts (fly ash, red mud, lignite coal,
blast furnace slag) for wastewater treatment
Surface
chemistry of activated carbons and/or alternative adsorbents (physical and
chemical properties),
Removal of arsenic, fluoride, nitrate, iron,
pharmaceuticals from water/wastewater
Acid
mine drainage (AMD) treatment and control, deinking of pulp and paper
Chemometric
analysis
Biomass fast pyrolysis for the development of Bio-oils (bio fuels) and Biochars, Bio-oils fractionation, Biorefineries
Development
of environmentally friendly wood
preservatives, polymerization of bio-oils
We
are also interested in the transfer of basic research to the private
sectors/industries/organizations/NGOs for commercial development to aid the
poor peoples who cannot afford the sophisticated costly water treatment
methods. This research can range from applied to fundamental basic research.

by times higher education. Data provided by Thomson Reuters from its
Essential Science Indicators database, 1 January 1999-31 August 2009.
(Hot
papers are defined as those published within the past two years that, for their
field and age (in terms of bimonthly cohorts), have been exceptionally highly
cited (ranking in the top 0.1 per cent by citations received). Typically, if a
paper is cited at such frequency so quickly after publication, it tends to
continue to receive citations and goes on to qualify as a highly cited paper. In
other words, the citation momentum continues.
