Title: Senior assistant
Suresh Kumar Pandey is a passionate researcher specializing in materials and environmental chemistry. He completed his Master's degree (M.Sc.) in Chemistry from the University of Allahabad, India, in 2017, before moving on to the Indian Institute of Technology (BHU), Varanasi, to persue his Ph.D. His doctoral research, titled "Synthesis of Metal Oxides Based Photocatalysts for the Removal of Organic Pollutants from Waste Water" culminated in the award of his Ph.D. on August 31, 2022.
Pandey's work focused on developing advanced photocatalytic materials to address environmental pollution, specifically targeting the removal of contaminants of emerging concerns (CECs) from waste water. His research aims to provide sustainable and efficient solutions for water purification, a critical global challenge in the face of growing industrialization.
