Water Chemistry meets Nanomaterials & Electrochemistry

The Greenlee Research Group

Welcome. Our group works on problems of societal importance at the nexus of water, food, and energy. We tackle science and engineering questions with expertise in water chemistry, electrochemistry, nanomaterials, and characterization tools. We invite you to explore our current research projects and think about how you look to solve the world’s problems.

Research Program Overview

Our research activities include laboratory and field studies on wastewater treatment, water treatment, nutrient recovery, and electrochemical and electrocatalytic processes. We conduct experiments focused on electrode engineering, nanomaterials synthesis, chemical and morphological characterization, and (electro)catalyst materials performance.

Water

How can we utilize materials science and engineering technology to enable water sustainability?

Food

What are the water and energy challenges for food production, and how can we use engineering to support a resilient food supply?

Energy

How can we use materials and system design to achieve energy efficiency?
