Dr. Farooq Sher is a Senior Lecturer in Sustainable Energy Engineering at Nottingham
Trent University (NTU), UK, specialising in sustainable energy and environmental
technologies for the transition towards net zero. His expertise encompasses carbon
capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS), renewable and alternative fuels,
waste-to-energy systems, resource recovery, low-carbon processes, and functional
materials for energy and environmental applications.
His research takes an interdisciplinary approach to developing practical solutions
for decarbonisation, resource efficiency and cleaner energy systems. A growing
dimension of his work involves integrating artificial intelligence, digitalisation
and data-driven approaches with energy technologies to enhance process performance,
support optimisation and enable more effective pathways towards industrial
decarbonisation.
Dr Sher is actively engaged in international and interdisciplinary research
collaborations addressing major challenges associated with climate change
mitigation, energy security, circular economy and environmental sustainability. He
contributes to research initiatives that connect fundamental scientific
understanding with engineering innovation and real-world applications, with
particular emphasis on scalable solutions capable of supporting cleaner, more
resilient and resource-efficient energy systems. His broader academic activities
include research leadership, postgraduate supervision and the development of
collaborative networks across energy and environmental engineering.
