Research Interests

Recent research:
Across a body of work focused on Environmental Science, Water, Waste & Circular Economy, the researcher advances understanding of solid waste management and circular strategies to reduce environmental and health impacts. The studies collectively diagnose waste generation and composition, emphasize source separation and efficient collection, and propose systemic solutions—from prevention, recycling, and reuse to policy-oriented approaches such as waste-to-resource pathways (including tire retreading and aluminum can recycling). Several publications analyze sector-specific waste streams (construction paints, textiles, tires, and aluminum cans) and their regulatory contexts, while others explore practical interventions (vermicompost systems, household organic waste processing, and community-level drinking water treatment education). The work demonstrates a methodological mix of descriptive assessments, case studies, and experimental tracking of parameters (pH, moisture, C:N ratios) to optimize biological processing and material recycling. The overarching impact is to inform national or regional waste management frameworks, promote pollution reduction, and advance sustainable practices through education, awareness, and practical reuse strategies.
