Summary
As a science student, I completed a Master's in Chemistry, focusing on converting agricultural waste into industrial products. Building on this foundation, I pursued an MS in Environmental Sciences from IESE, NUST, where I advanced my research by transforming poultry waste into effective adsorbents for wastewater treatment. My academic journey then took me to the USA for a PhD, where I specialized in developing natural flocculants for sustainable water and wastewater treatment solutions. My work reflects a strong commitment to environmental sustainability, emphasizing waste valorization and innovative approaches to address water pollution challenges
