About

I am Dr. Saran Sarangapany currently working as a Principal project associate in the NEERI project site at Kodaikanal Tamilnadu for the Mercury remediation project. I have successfully completed my 3 years Post Doctoral Research from Centre for Environmental, Indian Institue of Technology Guwahati. I have completed my PhD from the Department of Ecology and Environmental Sciences, Pondicherry University. I have nearly 8 years of research experience in chemical and green synthesis of nanomaterials for catalytic and photocatalytic applications. Apart from that 10 years of hands-on experience in the physical, chemical, microbial and heavy metal analysis of water, wastewater, soil, hazardous materials etc. Currently, I am looking for Post doctoral or laboratory manager position.
