Research Interests:
I am studying resource recovery from wastewater and food waste using anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs). I would like to understand the effects of different operating conditions on the effluent profiles of AnMBRs digesting wastewater and food waste. I am interested in optimizing this effluent profile for valorization downstream of the AnMBR.
