About

I design circular economy solutions for the most pressing waste management challenges, especially in developing economies.

As a faculty member in Environmental Engineering with over a decade of experience, my work bridges research, education, and implementation—helping cities, industries, and policymakers tackle waste challenges with data-driven, scalable approaches.

My research has quantified how developing countries can address problems of municipal solid waste management by improving collection and segregation measures, supported by a well-designed methodology for setting sanitary landfills, including appropriate siting, design optimisation, and risk assessment, which are outcomes of better engineering.

MY CONTRIBUTION TO INDIA'S GOALS:

Contributing to Vision 2070, Mission 2047, Mission 2030, and SDGs through:

→ Research on waste-to-resource systems

→ Training next-generation environmental engineers

→ Technical consulting for municipal and industrial projects

→ Knowledge translation from global research to Indian contexts

CORE EXPERTISE:

- Solid waste management systems & landfill engineering

- Industrial ecology & circular economy pathways

- Waste-to-energy technologies & biomethanation

- Wastewater treatment & resource recovery

- Environmental data analytics & AI/ML applications

-ESG & sustainability reporting (BRSR compliance)

CURRENT FOCUS:

Bridging the gap between laboratory research and municipal implementation—working with policymakers, utilities, and industries to deploy proven waste management solutions at scale.

CONTRIBUTIONS:

- Published in leading peer-reviewed international journals

- Regular analyst of the latest research from Nature, Elsevier, and global platforms

- Technical consultant on municipal solid waste projects

- Reviewer for international environmental journals

- Faculty training the next generation of environmental engineers on data literacy, policy awareness, and field-grounded problem-solving

I believe the future of environmental engineering lies at the intersection of rigorous science, pragmatic policy, and scalable technology.

📌 Let's connect if you're working on:

→ Urban waste management innovation

→ Industrial symbiosis & circular economy

→ Climate mitigation through waste-to-resource systems

→ Sustainability consulting & ESG frameworks

→ Research partnerships addressing environmental challenges

Always open to research collaboration, speaking opportunities, and knowledge exchange with practitioners solving real-world environmental challenges.
