Abstract

Majid Peyravi is presented for consideration for the Innovative Research Award based on a documented scholarly profile associated with Babol Noshirvani University of Technology, Iran. The supplied record reports 152 documents, 4,192 citations, and an h-index of 39. His publications include research addressing membrane modification, nanoporous membrane fouling, landfill leachate treatment, adsorption, nanofiltration, and related environmental engineering challenges. These studies demonstrate sustained engagement with applied membrane and water-treatment research, including experimental investigation and process modelling. Selected publications report approaches for improving membrane functionality, analysing fouling mechanisms, and integrating biological, adsorption, and membrane processes for complex wastewater treatment. The publication record therefore provides a relevant academic basis for assessing research activity, technical contribution, and potential suitability for an innovation-focused recognition programme.
