I am currently a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Alabama, focusing on the identification and remediation of PFAS contamination in the water systems. I have completed my B.Sc. and MS from the Department of Geology, Faculty of Earth and Environmental Science, University of Dhaka. I completed my PhD graduation (October 2023), majoring in Environmental and Energy Engineering. I have been a graduate teaching assistant (GTA) for the past 4 years, instructing graduate and undergraduate students in emerging organic contaminants (PFAS, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, heavy metals), environmental chemistry, in-situ chemical oxidation processes (ISCO), the synthesis of carbon-based materials from waste materials for organically contaminated soil, and groundwater remediation. I have multidimensional expertise, including geology (BS and MS) and environmental engineering (PhD and postdoc).
My area of specialization centers on developing sustainable carbon materials, notably biochar, derived from a diverse range of waste sources, including municipal, industrial, and agricultural waste, as well as char-based waste from plastics. I also have expertise in synthesizing nanomaterials and developing carbon-based composite materials. My work extends to soil and groundwater remediation, wastewater treatment, employing catalytic advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). A significant focus of my research is directed towards the remediation of organic pollutants, such as PFAS, polycyclic a
