Research Interests
My research interest is in the area of “Organic Waste-to-Resource Recycling via Bioconversion Processes”. The recent and current research projects have the major goal of substantially reducing secondary emissions from the organic waste recycling processes and the resulting products, thus improving the long-term sustainability of waste management. The research projects may be sub-divided into the following bioenvironmental engineering processes and systems, with the multiple purposes of resource recovery and protection of soil, water and air quality.
Composting and biofertilizer production
Odor monitoring/Biofiltration for odor control
Anaerobic fermentation for bioenergy production
Our research involves laboratory-scale and pilot-scale experiments, field studies and modeling of aerobic and anaerobic processes. Please check out the Research Page for more specific information.
