Civil & Environmental Engineering Labs

Contaminant Fate & Transport Lab

Director: Dr. Erica McKenzie

Dedicated to the investigation of physicochemical processes, environmental chemistry, remediation, and fate & transport, our lab performs experimental research on societally and environmentally relevant issues, and our research addresses both natural and engineered treatment systems. Our approaches include laboratory up to field scale, and the results contribute to society’s understanding of processes that affect pollutants in our environment.

Water & Environmental Technology Center

Director: Dr. Rominder Suri

The WET Center is a National Science Foundation Industry (NSF) and University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC), led by Temple University with partner sites at the University of Arizona and Arizona State University, that specializes in overall water purity and health. The Center has been developing a platform of water treatment technologies and scientific information systems that apply to a wide variety of industrial sectors such as defense, pharmaceuticals, consumer products, food and beverage, mining, municipal water and wastewater utilities and treatment, unconventional oil and gas, and other industries. The Center’s core work deals with water reuse, drinking water and wastewater treatment, water for use in industrial manufacturing, source water protection, stormwater management, environmental studies, risk assessments, sustainability, analytical methods development, and real-time sensors for water quality monitoring and process control.
