WELCOME

Hello, welcome to my personal website.
You can find info regarding me in these pages.

MY RESEARCH

I focus on developing technologies that utilize waste as a resource and provide sustainable solutions for multiple environmental problems such as clean water production, wastewater treatment, and energy recovery.

The focus is mainly on:

  • Microbial Fuel Cells for the synchronized removal/recovery of heavy metals and energy production;
  • Electrodialysis as a cleaner production concept for electroplating industry;
  • Electrochemical treatment technique for the removal of fluoride from groundwater;
  • Advanced oxidation process for water and wastewater treatment.
