1. Environmental applications of Advance Oxidation Technologies (AOTs): Removal of toxic chemicals, such as MTBE (a common fuel oxygenate) from water and computer simulation of kinetic processes for commercial applications of the technologies (in collaboration with Prof. W.J. Cooper of University of California, Irvine, CA).
2. Removal of harmful compounds from water using radiation chemistry, such as pesticides, POPs and THMs (disinfection’s by-products) from drinking and wastewater using Advance Oxidation Processes (AOPs), Experimental kinetics and computer kinetic modelling for pollution control in industrial effluents.
3. Assessment of environmental pollution due to industrial and other wastes (using analytical methods GC, HPLC, IC, AA etc.) and their treatment using radial or photochemical methods,
4. Development and standardizations of new analytical methods for the detection of irradiated foods (TL method, ESR, DNA Comet Assay and PSL methods).
5. Development and calibration of Radiation Dosimetry systems (for Food Irradiation, Radiation Processing, Low dose radiations etc.),
6. Radioactive contamination of foods, soil and environmental samples using gamma spectroscopy.
7. Kinetics and radiation and photochemistry chemistry of aqueous solutions.
