Expertise

Ecology

My research aims to delineate the geo-microbiological fate of toxic metals and organic pollutants (plastic, its derivatives, persistent SOCs), its clean-up pertaining to water-energy nexus. Besides, I aim to develop microbial technologies and metabolic engineering routes for waste to wealth/circular economy.
