Abdalrahman Badr Al-Deen

I’m Abdalrahman Badr Al-Deen, an undergraduate student at MIA majoring in Biotechnology, with studies focused on nanotechnology and environmental science.

I currently work in my university’s laboratory under the supervision of my professor, Dr. Fouad, who also serves as the official advisor for this project and endorsed the research proposal. Through this work, I’ve gained hands-on experience designing and conducting experiments involving eco-friendly iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs).

My research centers on developing magnetic nanoparticles capable of binding and removing plastic pollutants from water. In my experiments, these IONPs removed 100% of microplastics and 90% of nanoplastics using only a simple permanent magnet — a promising step toward accessible and sustainable water purification technologies.

My goal is to advance affordable green nanotechnology that can help protect communities and ecosystems from the increasing threat of plastic pollution.
