About

I am interested to develop resource recovery-based, low-cost, and chemical and energy-neutral processes for the treatment of water and wastewater and other environmental application. I have significant research and teaching experience through my regular position in India, previous postdoctoral positions at Princeton University, Princeton, USA, and current as a Marie Curie Fellow at Rey Juan Carlos University, Spain, I have my independent research group, 25 master's degree theses (TFM), and Two Ph.D. (sole supervisor) completed under my supervision and five Ph.D. students are still pursuing under my supervision. I have published 96 scientific articles in journals, books, and conferences. My cumulative impact factor ( Web of Science's Journal Citation Reports) of published is 506.57 and average impact factor of each paper is 9.04. I am the innovator of a new domain of hybrid technology known as microbial fuel cell integrated constructed wetlands (CW-MFC). I have had multiple international collaborations and published 20 research papers with international collaboration spreading in eight countries. I am the corresponding author of 23 research articles and 18 book chapters. I also work as an associate editor of an international journal and acted as a guest editor in an international journal. I led eight research projects as principal project leader, three as CO- principal project leader, and another two interactional projects as a principal investigator. I edited 1 book with Elsevier publication and filed four patents. My h-index is 28 with more than 2800 citations. I got numerous awards including Marie Curie Fellowship, Spain; Boyscast Fellowship at Princeton University, USA, Indo-American Research Professorship at Princeton University, USA (American Society of Microbiology); Four times winner of the Erasmus Mundus Scholar Awards for teaching and research in universities in Germany, Poland, Sweden, and Portugal; Winner of VLIR scholarships of Belgium; and Nuffic fellowship of the Netherlands. Besides this, I am also working as an adjunct senior lecturer at the University of Tasmania, Australia. I designed and installed various field-scale constructed wetlands to serve the society. (https://www.telegraphindia.com/odisha/artificial-wetland-route-to-sewage-treatment/cid/1475181). Recently we have designed an innovative public toilet system based and a design patent is applied for this design and demonstrated this toilet facility to a stakeholder meeting (https://almondvirtex.s3.ap-south1.amazonaws.com/virtex/0729487001658325308.pdf). I believe that the outcome of the research must be disseminated to the various stakeholders, thus I regularly updated my research outcome at open accessed website-https://akyadav-immt.weebly.com and our social media channel on YouTube https://youtu.be/FEEOo4-djPY. I regularly participate in skills development program through our regular program https://www.immt.res.in/hrd-skill-development.
