Research Interest

Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs): MOFs have emerged as a fascinating class of porous materials with diverse applications. My research focuses on synthesizing and characterizing novel MOFs with tailored properties for applications in desalination and energy storage. I explore the design principles of MOFs to enhance their water adsorption capacity, selectivity, and stability, enabling efficient and sustainable water treatment processes.

Desalination Technologies: Access to clean and fresh water is a global challenge. I am deeply passionate about developing advanced desalination technologies that can provide a sustainable solution to address water scarcity. By harnessing the unique properties of inorganic materials, particularly MOFs, I aim to design membranes and adsorbents that can effectively remove salts and impurities from seawater, brackish water, and contaminated water sources.

Energy Storage Devices: As renewable energy sources become increasingly prevalent, efficient energy storage systems are crucial for their widespread adoption. I focus on integrating innovative materials, including MOFs, into batteries and supercapacitors to enhance their energy storage performance. By exploring the electrochemical properties and structural design of these materials, I aim to develop energy storage devices with improved capacity, stability, and sustainability.
