My research lies at the interface of soil science, environmental chemistry, and sustainable agriculture, with a broad interest in understanding how organic amendments interact with soil systems to influence nutrient cycling, soil health, and ecosystem functioning. I am particularly interested in the fate and behavior of contaminants including heavy metals, persistent organic pollutants, and emerging contaminants in soil plant systems, and in the development of evidence based strategies to mitigate their environmental and human health impacts. A central theme of my work is the valorization of organic waste materials, particularly sewage sludge, as soil amendments within circular economy frameworks. This includes the critical evaluation of biological and chemical stabilization techniques such as composting and liming and their effectiveness in improving amendment safety, soil fertility, and crop performance while minimizing ecological risk.
