About
I am Dr. Abdur Rashid, currently working as an Assistant Professor visiting at Hazara University, Mansehra, Pakistan. I also worked as a special Research Assistant at the Institute of Urban Environment, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Xiamen, in July 2024. I have also worked as a special Researcher at the National Centre of Excellence in Geology, University of Peshawar, Pakistan, from 2016 to 2019.
• My research interests include inorganic and organic pollutants, aquatic chemistry, groundwater pollution, isotope geochemistry, and remediation.
• My research interests extend to Arsenic, and Fluoride co-occurrence, understanding of ion exchange processes, geochemical modeling, biogeochemical cycles, groundwater recharge, and discharge mechanisms.
• Hands-on experience with various analytical laboratory instruments.
