Dr. WAN NAZWANIE WAN ABDULLAH

Senior Lecturer

Hello.I am Dr Wanie. My interests are conducting research related to heavy metal, industrial waste utilization, environmental pollution treatment and catalysis. Currently, I am passionate about converting industrial waste to value added products such as catalyst and energy. My research group also focus on green initiative such as application of catalyst combined with the development of safe chemicals and industrial waste for various reaction and processes.
