个人简介
Prof. Bamidele Olu-Owolabi’s work is focussed on the development of low cost sustainable alternative materials for remediation of contaminated/polluted water and soil. There is a strong need for clean water in Sub-Sahara Africa and clean-up of contaminated/polluted land as a result of indiscriminate disposal of waste. Her work has both national and international significance.
Professor Olu-Owolabi has successfully exploited clays and modified clays for the removal of both organic and inorganic pollutants from aqueous solution. She has synthesized grahene oxide covalently bonded to Iron to produce a magnetic nanomaterial which efficiently removed Mercury from aqueous solutions. She has also prepared a hybrid material from Graphene oxide and Tripolyphosphate for the removal of cationic dyes from aqueous solutions.
One of the innovative materials she prepared in collaboration with other researchers was a material made from locally sourced kaolinite clay and carica papaya seeds. This hybrid material was found to have very unique capacity to reduce even very low concentrations of micropollutants. The preparation of the hybrid material was economical and eco-friendly; far cheaper than commercial ion-exchange resins currently used in treatment of water. This work has been patented at the National Office for Technology Acquisition and Promotion (NOTAP) in Nigeria.
Furthermore, her research group has extensively worked on and are still working on environmental monitoring, modeling and remediation with the application of fuzzy logic which is an emerging global concept to interpret the result. She has also worked on the modification of starch from underutilized seed legumes in Nigeria for various uses in the industry.
As a mentor she has supervised to date over 100 master’s thesis, one (1) MPhil and twelve (12) Ph.D students. She is also a regular peer reviewer for several Elsevier Journals.
