Owing to vast reactivities of nanostructured materials, their applications as appropriate adsorbents for dye and heavy metals remediation comprising synthesis and surface functionalization were described in articles 13, 14, 15. Article 16 revealed the temperature-dependent synthesis and characterization of hydroxyapatite sorbent from periwinkle shell. The articles (17 and 18) were on synthesis of biogenic adsorbents for remediation, suggesting adsorption technique as best option. This research area has contributed commendably in reputable journals (Q1 and Q2) with high impact factors. Article 19 was on detoxification of Azadirachta indica seed cake by alcoholysis and its inclusion in animal feed formulation as an alternative source of protein. Article 20 involved adsorption of rhodamine-B dye on functionalized hydroxyapatite-chitosan-titanium dioxide nanoparticles.
Recently, my research focus in analytical and environmental chemistry has delved into green synthesis, characterization and applications of nanoparticles and nanostructured materials.

My research areas in Analytical and Environmental Chemistry have contributed significantly to knowledge and have impacted positively on humanity. It involves analysis of water, wastewater, soil, food samples and vegetables for heavy metals, proximate, phytochemical and functional properties analysis. It also covers synthesis, characterization and application of biogenic wastes for the treatment of industrial wastewaters. It also involves the use of nanosized materials for remediation of water, wastewater and soil contaminants.
