Aradhana Singh

About

I am working in Water and Environment Engineering Group at University of Southampton (Southampton, United Kingdom). I am working on the Urine-tricity project, funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Before this, I have also worked at Department of Sustainable Energy Engineering at IIT Kanpur where my research was focussed on catalytic and microalgal CO2 conversion to usable formate. I have obtained PhD from Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, New Delhi. The objective of my PhD was the optimisation and development of Microbial Fuel Cell for electricity generation and wastewater treatment.
