Technical Interests: Research interests include surface and colloidal chemistry, environmental chemistry and engineering, green chemistry and engineering principles, and nanotechnology and sustainable engineering approaches for solving environmental problems. Much of my research focuses on the impact of surface and interfacial properties on transport and transformation processes of environmental contaminants. Objectives of on-going projects include molecular-scale investigations of surface chemical properties and transformation processes, the synthesis and optimization of nanoparticles for groundwater remediation, the development of reduced iron materials for permeable reactive barrier systems, and the design of novel petroleum free metal working fluids.
