Research Interest

  • Development of sustainable materials for environmental protection and water quality improvement.
  • Water chemistry and remediation, including fluoridated domestic water sources and hydrochemical characterization of salt lakes.
  • Molecular imprinting technology for selective separation.
  • Sustainable materials for environmental applications, including cashew nutshell liquid-based materials, plastic waste, lignocellulosic materials, and geopolymers.
  • Metal corrosion and corrosion inhibition using bio-derived materials.
  • Environmental contamination assessment and remediation, with emphasis on pesticides, toxic elements in deposited dust, cosmetics, and aqueous systems using sustainable polymeric and bio-based materials.
