With 580 Research Papers, an exceptional h-index, and thousands of peer-citations, Prof. Yadav is recognized among the top 0.2% of scientists globally in physical chemistry and catalysis. His pioneering findings on tri-liquid phase transfer catalysis (PTC) and mesoporous superacid architectures (UDCaTs) have rewritten foundational design engineering principles. Under his single supervision, 117 Ph.D.s, 164 Masters (M. Tech), and 52 Postdocs have been mentored.
Author and contributor to fundamental reference engineering literature and monographs in green chemistry, catalysis, and clean chemical technologies.
Driven by the philosophy of translating lab discovery to factory floors, his work has resulted in 139 Granted Patents, 5 major Technology Transfers, and 45+ years of active industrial consultancy. Many of these architectures have been successfully licensed out and commercialized by leading multinational chemical manufacturing businesses.
