Straub 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Group at our 2024 winter retreat

Straub 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Group (winter retreat, 2024)

Water, Energy, and the Environment

Our group works on challenges at the intersection of water, energy, and the environment

Harvesting sustainable energy

Harvesting sustainable energy from waste heat with membrane systems

Membrane materials

Membrane materials with high hydrophobicity and permeability

Energy consumption in emerging desalination systems

System-scale analysis of energy consumption in emerging desalination systems

Membrane technologies for water, energy, and the environment

Our research focuses on emerging technologies for water purification, carbon capture, resource recovery, and energy . Much of our interest lies in utilizing membrane-based processes, which offer advantages in efficiency, size, and scalability. We employ a variety of research methods in our investigations including materials fabrication, advanced characterization techniques, laboratory testing, and simulations.ÌýMore information about our ongoing research projects is available on our 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Page.

Our group is led by Prof. Anthony Straub in the Environmental Engineering Program and Materials Science and Engineering ProgramÌýat the 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó. Information on our group members, including Prof. Straub, can be found on the People Page.
