The Research Enterprise
Waste Management & Circular Economy
Developing sustainable segregation models and waste-to-energy solutions, including biogas production from kitchen waste and medical waste planning.
Climate Resilience & Adaptation
Leading projects on "Climate Smart Cities," utilizing machine learning for vulnerability modeling and creating adaptation plans for at-risk communities.
Geospatial Intelligence (GIS)
Applying advanced GIS and remote sensing to map social deprivation, land suitability, and environmental hazards for organizations like UNICEF and the UN.
Environmental Research: Advancing Sustainability Through Science
Embarking on the frontiers of ecological preservation, our research is a dynamic endeavor dedicated to unraveling the complexities of pollution, climate change, and public health. At the intersection of innovation and environmental stewardship, our researchers tirelessly explore, question, and innovate to shape the future of environmental management.
Pollution & Health Risk
Assessing exposure risks from heavy metals and microplastics, and their impact on human health and aquatic ecosystems.
Strategic Impact Assessment
Conducting Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA) and Strategic Environmental Assessments (SEA) to guide industrial and urban development.
Spatial Modeling
Utilizing drone technology and satellite imagery for precision agriculture and monitoring Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicators.
Exploration of Environmental Health
Delving into the intricacies of pollutant pathways, we seek to understand how waste and toxins affect public wellbeing. From decoding the spread of COVID-19 related waste to scrutinizing microplastic distribution, researchers illuminate the pathways to a cleaner environment.
Translating Policy to Action
Beyond the laboratory, our research is about translation. We assist national bodies in updating critical frameworks, such as the Bangladesh Medical Waste Management Rules, and implement pilot projects for waste treatment to ensure regulatory compliance and public safety.
Collaboration and Global Partnerships
In the spirit of progress, we thrive on global collaboration. Working with the World Bank, ADB, JICA, and UNICEF, our experts pool their knowledge to drive interdisciplinary projects that span from rural sanitation to urban climate resilience.
