Research
Objectives
Our research aims to study and evaluate processes which contribute to improving freshwater sustainability, protecting environmental flows, improving recycling of industrial process streams, and municipal wastewater reuse.The goal of my research is defining performance in terms of contaminant removal, energy consumption, and engineering systems to increase the source and quality of freshwater supplies by assess technology readiness levels (TRLs) for novel materials and applications in water treatment, desalination and selective separation, as well as provide benchmark testing with real waters for collaborators and industry partners to investigate real-world scenarios and define scientific impact for future engineering professionals.
Projects
PFAS Destruction in Saline Water Using a BN Enabled Photocatalytic Reactor Pilot
The proposed PFAS Destruction in Saline Waters Using a Boron Nitride-Enabled Photocatalytic Reactor Pilot project (Project) seeks to increase water supplies by reducing the cost, energy consumption, and/or environmental impacts of treating impaired and otherwise unusable waters.
