OVERVIEW
I am an environmentalist and green technologist-related researcher. My primary interest is converting scientific knowledge into a non-scientific method that can easily be understood by the user and communities. My current research focuses on utilizing organic wastes from agro-based industry and sugar refinery industry in producing green products. My research interest is in "Greenhouse Technology". I'm trying and struggling to open greenhouse technology education center in UUM for research purpose.
