SUSTAINABLE ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY LAB

Our current research interest lies in 1) applying reductive and oxidative treatment technologies (e.g., catalyst-based, radical-based AOPs and ARPs) to transform contaminants of emerging concern (CEC) to environmentally benign products, 2) advancing sensing technologies and monitoring systems for better management of contaminants of emerging concern in water environment, and 3) developing novel processes and materials that can supplant current environmental technologies with alternatives that have a lower environmental footprint and recover embedded resources.

RESEARCH TOPICS

1. Treatment of CEC using reductive and oxidative treatment technologies

•Heterogeneous metal-based reduction and oxidation of CECs

•UV-based advanced reduction process and advanced oxidation process for treatment of PFAS and halogenated compounds

2. Sensing technologies and monitoring system for CECs in water environment

•Aptamer-based sensor technologies for PFAS

•Toxicity assessment of fluorinated pharmaceuticals

3. Environmental technologies with lower environmental footprint and/or resource recovery

•Catalyst-assisted thermal production of hydrogen from wastewater-originated ammonia

•Synthesis of "low environmental footprint" catalyst
