Main current Research interests:
- Sustainable Chemistry - Development of Environmentally Friendly Processes under the Principles of Green Chemistry
- Biomass as raw material
- Cellulose as a key building block for functional materials, e.g. biodegradable films
- Applied photocatalysis - use of photocatalysis for current environmental problems
- Photocatalytic membrane systems - development of the membrane, construction of a closed system
- Application in developing countries
