Working Experience
Presently working as Postdoctoral position at Biofuels Institute, Jiangsu University, P.R. China. My ongoing research, mainly focused on pretreatment of waster or wastewater to obtain maximum fermentable sugar production for the enhanced production biohydrogen using Dark and photo fermentation from bacteria and algae. Having published more than 4 peer reviewed scientific papers as a first author and also published one book chapter.
Research interests
- Energy and Environment
- Bioconversion of waste biomass resources for the production biofuels, such as Bio hydrogen, Bioethanol and Biomethane.
- Waste to wealth concepts
