Awais Ahmad s/o Muhammad Aslam Haral is working as Researcher at Departamento de Quimica Organica, Universidad de Cordoba, Edificio Marie Curie (C-3), Ctra Nnal IV-A, Km 396, E14014 Cordoba, Spain Under supervision of Prof Rafael Luque. He done his graduation from Government college University Faisalabad under supervision of Khalid Mahmood Zia. After that he done his master's degree from University of Lahore under supervision of Dr Muhammad Pervaiz, and Co-Supervisor was Dr Ikram Ahmad. During his research Career till yet he Published 60 SCI papers with accumulative impact factor of > 230. His research on nanomaterials, composite materials, coated materials, heterogenous catalysis, MOF, self-sacrifice MOF, single atom catalysis, photocatalysis, and electrochemical sensor formulations. He used these materials for wastewater treatment, removal of heavy metals, degradation of organic pollutants, CO2 conversion, supercapacitors, dye sensing solar cells, gel electrolyte, sensing of hazardous metals in wastewater, Conversion of hazardous gases into useful product, nitrogen fixation, Catalysis for organic transformation, Li-S batteries, GCE nafion fiber, and water splitting. He has excellent understanding in designing of composite material, HRTEM, SEM, FT-IR, GC with photo reactor, UV-Vis., EDS, XRD, CV, DSC, XPS, TGA. Have handful expertise in Origin-8, Sigmaplot and Chemdraw. Dr. Ikram Ahmad is an assistant professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Sahiwal, Pakistan.
