Ranjan Singh

Dr. Ranjan Singh is an environmental scientist and researcher at Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Lucknow, India. His interdisciplinary research integrates algal biotechnology, environmental remediation, and data-driven modeling for sustainable ecosystem management. Dr. Singh's experimental work focuses on exploring the tolerance mechanisms, photosynthetic efficiency, and lipid accumulation potential of microalgae under environmental stressors such as salinity (NaCl) and ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Through advanced techniques including UV-Visible spectrophotometry, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), chlorophyll fluorescence induction kinetics (OJIP curve), and Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), his studies demonstrate the dual-functional role of microalgae in bioremediation and bioresource production, particularly lipids for sustainable biofuels. In addition to laboratory research, Dr. Singh is actively engaged in applying machine learning and artificial intelligence for environmental forecasting. He utilizes convolutional neural networks (CNN) and other deep learning techniques to predict water pollution trends, enabling more effective monitoring and management of water resources. His work contributes significantly to the advancement of nature-based and data-driven approaches for tackling environmental challenges, particularly water pollution.
