Research Interests
Our research emphasizes a strong link to societal needs and real-life environmental challenges. We strive to advance our fundamental knowledge and develop low-carbon engineering solutions to actualize Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We perform interdisciplinary and translational research in natural and engineered systems:
​
-
Value-added utilization of food waste, wood waste, agro-waste, sludge, and CO2
-
Environmental assessment and green remediation of contaminated soil/sediment
-
Stormwater harvesting and industrial wastewater treatment for resilient water cycles
