Research Foci

Microbial diversity in activated sludge plants: correlation between species diversity and process performance:

Demonstrate that in a complex system with multiple species, competition among species under specific conditions is expected to increase species diversity, and within this increase, the functional stability and the performance of the process will also increase.

Mater thesis

Evaluation of wastewater treatment technologies applied at a decentralized hospital: cost-efficiency analysis and environmental risk assessment
