Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Dr. Muhammad Saqib Khan's research focuses on the development and application of nanomaterials for environmental remediation and biological studies. His work involves the synthesis and characterization of various photocatalytic materials, including metal-doped titanium dioxide (TiO2) and graphene quantum dot-modified TiO2, for the degradation of organic pollutants such as azo dyes. He has investigated the influence of synthesis parameters, calcination temperatures, and elemental composition on the efficiency of these photocatalysts under visible light.

In addition to photocatalysis, Dr. Khan has explored the use of activated carbon derived from plant biomass for the adsorption and recovery of hazardous heavy metals like Cr(VI). His research also extends to the evaluation of nanomaterial performance in in vitro antibacterial studies. He has a significant publication record, with approximately 50 peer-reviewed articles, and one of his publications was recognized as the most cited in the Chemical Engineering Journal in 2012. His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 17, with over 1,000 citations from his 77 publications.

Dr. Khan has also contributed to the scientific community as a section editor for the Journal of Multidisciplinary Applied Natural Science and as a reviewer for multiple journals. He has teaching experience across a range of undergraduate and graduate courses in environmental science, chemistry, and biomedical instrumentation.
