Dr. Satheesh Krishnamurthy Fellow of Royal Scoeity of Chemistry (FRSC) and Chair Professor of Energy Technology at the School of Engineering and Innovation, STEM at The Open University. He is also vice president of Indian chamber of Youth Entrerepneurs (indiancye.org) Prior to joining the faculty in 2012, he was a Research Fellow at Dublin City University (2008-2012) and Trinity College Dublin, Ireland between (2004- 2008) and he received his Ph.D. degree from the University of Newcastle upon Tyne in 2004. He is currently reviewer of high impact factor journals such as Physical Review B, Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology.
Research in the Krishnamurthy’s lab is primarily funded through grants from the European Union, Indo-Ireland, Enterprise Ireland, which is focused on commercializing low cost commercial viable nanomaterials, devices for energy harvesting and storage. In recent years, Dr. Krishnamurthy has received the Overseas Research Scholarship Award for doing PhD (2001-2004). He was invited by former president of India Dr. A.P.J Kalam in the year 2007 to discuss about Nano initiatives in India and societal impacts. Dr. Krishnamurthy’s work on gold nitride, entitled Scientists create substitute for gold, came as special issue in BBC. Dr. Krishnamurthy also represented Ireland in Eu-India research and Innovation Forum and led several delegations to India to forge tangible scientific and Innovation partnership with India.
Dr. Satheesh Krishnamurthy is a material and surface scientist, involved in preparation and characterisation of various nanostructured films and metal nitrides and oxides for electronics, optical and Energy applications. His research focuses on the materials science and engineering of several technologies that will impact our society in the future. He is currently working on a multidisciplinary research team.
He is committed to changing the world through discoveries and developing the science and technology by bottom up approach.
He has produced 40 international journal publications of high scientific impact journals such as Nature Nanotechnology, Advanced Materials etc., he has 2 international patents and 2 more pending approval. He has delivered 25 invited talks at several international conferences and has delivered Inspirational Lecture series for school students.

As water becomes a limiting resource in densely populated regions of the world, effective treatment of industrial wastewater not only becomes necessary for safe recycling of the resource but also is essential for the survival of the industry. The textile industry consumes about 140 L of water / kg of finished product, and dying is one of the most polluting of the chain of activities it conducts. The current treatment methods for textile wastewater involve sedimentation, biological treatment and various tertiary treatments like reverse osmosis, ultra-filtration or nano-filtration to remove the various contaminants and making water safe for reuse or disposal into water bodies. These processes consequently generate voluminous sludge for disposal and hazardous membrane rejects. To overcome these expensive processes and hazardous waste generation we have explored the possibility of employing a plant-microbe system (Mohanapriya et al., under review). The salient advantage of this process is its low power requirement and elimination of toxic byproducts from breakdown of aromatic compounds present in textile mill effluents. The proposed project will address the following questions to develop a comprehensive solution to the textile mill wastewater treatment: a. can we use a photocatalytic process to quickly decolorize azodyes in high concentration in waste streams? b. can we develop an integrated system to detoxify and depollute the wastewater? c. what are the mechanistic basis for such a treatment process? d. how do we translate these findings for the benefit of the industry? The collaborators bring in their unique expertise for solving these problems. The beneficiaries will be the textile processing industries, the participating academic institutions for the range of experiences on offer for their faculty and students, and the industrial partner to reach out to and expand its customer base with new and effective solutions.
