Biography:
Noor Ul Afsar (born 1984) is a Pakistani physical and applied chemist and a postdoc fellow with prof. Wu Liang at the department of chemistry University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, Anhui Province PR China. Noor obtained his MS and Ph.D. from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) under the supervision of prof. Xu Tongwen. Noor’s research focuses on synthesizing ion-selective membranes for efficient ion separations. His main academic accomplishments are; developing cost-effective membranes for acid-base recovery by utilizing environment-friendly materials. He has established a facile protocol for ion-exchange membranes and is used for acid-base and lithium recovery via diffusing dialysis and electrodialysis processes.
