My research focuses on environmental geochemistry, groundwater contamination, and sustainable remediation technologies, with particular emphasis on developing targeted in-situ treatment approaches for geogenic fluoride contamination in groundwater. My doctoral research investigates the application of calcium- and phosphate-based amendments to promote fluoride immobilization through fluorapatite precipitation, offering a potentially sustainable approach to groundwater remediation.
