Dr. Balamurugan Panneerselvam is a Postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering, University of Naples Federico II, via Claudio 21, 80125, Naples, Italy. His current research interests include groundwater quality assessment for drinking, irrigation and human health risk associate with major contaminants such as nitrate and fluoride in arid and semi-arid region and also related to groundwater related issues. He extended his research interest in the flied of wastewater treatment using moving bed bioreactors, performance evaluation of bioreactor in biogas unit. He received his Doctoral degree from the Anna University Chennai in 2019. His thesis was based on the groundwater quality assessment using GIS techniques in Salem district, India. He has published more than 50 papers in international and national journals. He is privileged to act as Technical Reviewer in journals in the platform of Springer, Elsevier and MDPI. With his immense interest in multidisciplinary research, his recent investigations are focused on parameter estimation using machine learning algorithms, innovative floating structures, and GIS-based potential assessment of photovoltaic systems in India.
