- VersaWater Collaborative focuses on small community water systems that weather the storm – no electricity required and can treat muddy stormwaters.
- Wastewater plant retrofits for resource recovery
- Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket reactors for sewage treatment
Microbial Hazards detection
-
- Waterborne pathogens detection tools
- Impact of sanitation practices on drinking water microbes (pathogens and indicators)
- Effectiveness of AguaClara treatment process on pathogen removal
- Detection of Harmful Algal Blooms via inexpensive microscopy and onsite qPCR tools for field analysis of environmental DNA
- Bloom toxicity assessment via accessible image analysis (microcystis screening)
- Great Lakes environmental DNA (eDNA) integrated monitoring of Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs), fecal pollution, and priority Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS)
