Research Interests

Research Themes

Primarily focused on low temperature aqueous geochemistry and microbial geochemistry, with emphasis on trace element speciation and cycling of trace elements in the environment. Recent research work focuses on construction and demolition waste recycling, industrial wastewater reuse and recycling potential and brick kilns’ emission on the surrounding area’s soil quality. Research work is based on both field and laboratory studies.
