Remediation Using Novel Magnetic Sorbents and Magnetically-Enhanced Separation Methods

Principal Investigator Philip Gschwend


We seek to develop novel nano-materials and devices which will facilitate accurate and cost-effective delineation of the spatial extent of contamination in sediments of concern. In this project we will focus on the in situ accurate determination of the local activity of the contaminants and then of the development of strategies to remove these contaminant in the most non-invasive way possible.
