AWARDEE BIOGRAPHY

    Purnendu K. (Sandy) Dasgupta is Jenkins Garrett Professor of Chemistry at the University of Texas at Arlington. A native of India, Dasgupta’s contributions to separation sciences have been both esoteric (chromatography on ice as a stationary phase, chiral separations through a chirally doped soap bubble) and practical: Principles and applications of ion chromatography, he is credited with the development of electrodialytic suppressors, eluent generators and postcolumn reagent introduction devices. His contributions to the use of ion chromatography in environmental analysis have been particularly important, from the discovery of the ubiquitous presence of perchlorate in mother’s milk to near real-time gas/aerosol composition analyzers.
