Associate Professor Santanu Mukherjee from the MS Swaminathan School of Agriculture<\/a>, Shoolini University, has received the Nanjing Award for Distinguished Scientists. His research has also been selected for presentation at t he 23rd World Congress of Soil Science (WCSS 2026) in Nanjing, China. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The World Congress of Soil Science is among the largest global platforms in the discipline, bringing together over 4,000 scientists, policymakers, and experts. The event will feature more than 120 scientific sessions and around 1,000 research presentations focused on advances in soil and environmental sciences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Assoc Prof Mukherjee\u2019s<\/a> research addresses pharmaceutical pollution in soil and water systems, particularly in emerging economies. His work focuses on developing biochar from Himalayan pine needles, used as a supersorbent to remove contaminants such as antibiotics. The study presents a waste-to-wealth approach and contributes to circular economy practices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The research has been selected for presentation in a specialised session on soil remediation and environmental sustainability. It focuses on solutions to tackle soil degradation and emerging contaminants, while aligning with key Sustainable Development Goals, including clean water, climate action, and sustainable ecosystems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nanjing Award for Distinguished Scientists, conferred by the Soil Science Society of China and the WCSS organising committee, recognises outstanding scientific contributions. The award also includes financial support for participation in the congress. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Assoc Prof Mukherjee\u2019s participation in WCSS 2026 is expected to strengthen global academic engagement and expand opportunities for international collaboration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
