Expert in translational research where he takes concepts derived in the bench to fruitful industrial application. Three US Patents in water treatment and copy writes. Over 90 publications and counting: technical publications in water and wastewater treatment, and renewable energy, along with over 100 presentations at international technical conferences, workshops and academic institutions. Featured as a Technical Expert on international television and in journals and newspapers. Served as Technical Advisor to international agencies and companies on issues related to water and wastewater treatment. Over thirty years of experience on development of water, wastewater and renewable energy technology for municipal, industrial and agricultural applications. Mitigation of hazardous contaminants in aquatic and soil environments for the purpose of providing safe water, sanitation and renewable energy to communities. Highly focused by international and national media in his area of expertise. Of note is his pioneering work in arsenic mitigation and safe water supply with UNICEF in the early 2000. As the lead in formulating a integrated arsenic mitigation project in the worst affected regions of Bangladesh where all the wells were tested, marked, patients identified, and alternate safe water options provided, arsenic technology development in new Mexico, perchlorate fate and affect in agriculture in Arizona, and introducing anaerobic industrial wastewater treatment to the Subcontinent; has worked on projects in numerous countries of the world including, Canada, USA, Mexico, India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan, countries in Europe, Cambodia, Bhutan.
