'''Asim Bhaumik''' is an Indian chemist and materials scientist who has worked in the design of novel porous materials for energy and environmental applications.<br />
<br />
== Education ==<br />
In 1997, Bhaumik earned his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the [[National Chemical Laboratory]], Pune, India. Upon completing his doctoral studies, he worked as a JSPS postdoctoral fellow at the [[University of Tokyo]], Japan between 1997 and 1999, and then served as an Associate Researcher at [[Toyota Central R&D Labs]], Japan from 1999 to 2001.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Asim Bhaumik; Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science |url=https://www.rsc.org/people/asim-bhaumik?utm_source=chatgpt.com |website=The Royal Society of Chemistry}}</ref><br />
<br />
== Academic career and research ==<br />
He later joined the [[Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science]] in [[Kolkata]], where he currently serves as a senior professor. Within the Department of Materials Science, he served as Senior Lecturer from 2001 to 2005, Associate Professor from 2005 to 2009, and Professor from 2009 to 2014. From 2014 he is a Senior Professor.<ref name=":2">{{Cite web |title=Asim Bhaumik |url=https://iacs.res.in/athusers/index.php?navid=0&userid=IACS0014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250321174744/https://iacs.res.in/athusers/index.php?navid=0&userid=IACS0014 |archive-date=2025-03-21 |access-date=2025-08-11 |website=iacs.res.in |language=en |url-status=live }}</ref><br />
<br />
In April 2025, he was appointed Associate Editor of ''[[Green Chemistry (journal)|Green Chemistry]]''.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Ojeda-Porras |first=Andrea Carolina |title=Introducing our new Associate Editor: Asim Bhaumik, Green Chemistry Blog |url=https://blogs.rsc.org/gc/2025/06/20/introducing-our-new-associate-editor-asim-bhaumik/ |access-date=2025-08-11 |language=en-US}}</ref><br />
<br />
His research focuses on developing novel organic, inorganic, and organic–inorganic hybrid porous materials for energy and environmental applications, creating heterogeneous catalysts for CO₂ fixation into fuels and fine chemicals, and advancing [[green hydrogen]] technologies. He has published over 540 research papers and filed 16 patents. Bhaumik's publications have received over 29,000 citations, with an [[h-index]] of 94 as of August 2025.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Google Scholar |url=https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=l1XNgxoAAAAJ&hl=en |access-date=2025-08-14 |website=scholar.google.com}}</ref><br />
