DPhil Student In my DPhil research, I am investigating the dynamics of arsenic adsorption and desorption on biogenic iron manganese binary oxides. While previous studies have extensively explored these processes on abiogenic iron oxides and iron manganese binary oxides, there is a growing interest in understanding how biogenic minerals, influenced by iron- and manganese-oxidizing bacteria, interact with toxic elements like arsenic. My focus is on uncovering the role of biofilms in biogenic iron manganese binary oxide systems, as this area remains largely unexplored yet holds immense potential for understanding the complexities of arsenic interactions in natural environments. Through my work, I aim to shed light on the complex dynamics of arsenic adsorption and desorption in these settings.
My DPhil project is funded by The Commonwealth Scholarship Commission in the UK. |
