Research interest
My research interests lie in the area of water treatment, particularly in the use of natural treatment systems such as Nature based solution. Specifically, I am interested in developing innovative water treatment technologies that not only effectively remove contaminants from water, but also incorporate principles of sustainable design and resource efficiency. I am interested in further exploring the potential of Nbs for treating wastewater, and in developing new design approaches to optimize their performance. Through my research, I aim to contribute to the development of more sustainable and efficient water treatment systems, and to help ensure access to clean, safe water for all.
