I am very happy to share that I’ve been recognised as one of the Royal Society of Chemistry’s 2022 Outstanding Reviewers. May I never become reviewer 2! #RSCPeerReview Royal Society of Chemistry

Our recent article on the mechanism of #Lithium ion #battery #recycling using deep eutectic solvents has been highlighted on the cover page of ACS Sustainable Journals. Thankful to Mario E. Norton Fondren Library for the wonderful artwork. ACS for Authors #MyACSCover Rice Materials Science & NanoEngineering

Excited to share our latest perspective in ACS Nano on unconventional fabrication approaches for #2D #semiconductor devices. Thanks to Sathvik Ajay Iyengar @SoumyabrataChem & Prof. Ajayan Rice Materials Science & NanoEngineering & Nick Glavin Dr. Ajit Roy Air Force Research Lab - AFRL . pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Moving Day!! One last meeting in Prof. Ajayan's old office before we all move to the stunning new O'Connor building.

The sun-moon conundrum

Thrilled to share that I have received Rice Engineering and Computing 's Outstanding #postdoc Research #AWARD.Many thanks to Prof.Ajayan Rice Materials Science & NanoEngineering for his support & the committee that found me worthy.Humbled to be recognized alongside such amazing co-awardees engineering.rice.edu/news/school-en…

A wonderful enriching experience visiting and speaking at Air Force Research Lab - AFRL some time back about our work on #Lithium ion #battery #recycling .Added bonus was the visit to the National Museum of the US Airforce. Can't thank Dr. Ajit Roy enough for the invitation and his hospitality.

Our recent review on emerging green processes for #Lithium ion #batteryrecycling encompassing hydrometallurgical & direct recycling is out in Small Wiley in research . Do give it a read. Soumyabrata Roy Rice Materials Science & NanoEngineering onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/sm…

Our recent work in Adv. Funct. Mater. shows #microwave assisted non-thermal activation of Choline chloride in a Deep Eutectic Solvent yields ultrafast selective #Lithium extraction. Do read. Rice Materials Science & NanoEngineering Wiley in research onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

A ton of hard work from a bunch of amazing people went into the writing of our latest review on 2D #TMD s for #EnergyStorage & conversion. Now out in Chemical Reviews Do give it a read. Rice Materials Science & NanoEngineering Soumyabrata Roy Anand Puthirath pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Thank you Rice University News for covering our latest work on ultrafast selective #lithium recovery in deep eutectic solvent using microwave during #lithiumbattery #recycling published in Adv. Funct. Mater. Wiley in research Rice Materials Science & NanoEngineering Ajayan Research Group

Lithium is the "white gold" of clean energy. At Rice University, Sohini Bhattacharyya and Salma Alhashim have found a faster, cleaner way to extract #lithium from battery waste using a microwave-based process that boasts a 50% recovery rate in 30 seconds. Read more: news.rice.edu/news/2024/rice…

Our latest review on 2D #TMD for #EnergyStorage & conversion has been highlighted in the cover page of Chemical Reviews This very cool artwork has been made by the amazing Mario E.

Amazing speaking to students on a panel for the #BeNiceToYourDevice campaign at Tech Fest Live ! Discussed the importance of #BatteryRecycling for a sustainable future. Raising community awareness is key to protecting critical resources & the environment.

Wrapped up 2024 by speaking on #BatteryRecycling at the Symposium on Green Energy, Recycling & AI in Kolkata! Sharing my work at Science City, a childhood favorite, was a special moment. Here’s to a more sustainable 2025 with greater public awareness and action! #Sustainability

Our recent work published in Adv. Energy Mater. points out areas of improvement for new Deep Eutectic Solvent formulations for #battery #recycling based on their life cycle analysis considering their efficiencies. Do read.
