Dedicated and accomplished Environmental Engineering professional with a Ph.D. in Environmental
Engineering & Science from Clemson University and a strong focus on Biological Process Engineering. I
bring over 25 years of pedagogical expertise, having served as a Professor at Yildiz Technical University
and as Rector and Professor at the International University of Sarajevo. My research endeavors include
serving as Project Coordinator for various investigations, such as the treatment of innovative technologies
in dye-containing wastewater and the biodegradation of aromatic compounds under mixed electron
acceptor conditions. I have published extensively in prestigious journals and am well-versed in areas like
membrane bioreactors, biodegradation of emerging pharmaceuticals, and treatment of textile industry
wastewater. My career statement reflects a commitment to sustainable development, green energy, and
environmental engineering. I have a proven track record as a Co-Principal Investiga
