The Civil and Environmental Engineering Dept. of the University of Cincinnati (UC) has intensive Research and Teaching activity in several Areas: including Environmental Nanotechnology; Advanced Oxidation Technologies; Drinking Water Treatment and Purification; Solar Photocatalytic Destruction of Organic Contaminants in Water; Environmental Sustainability, Preparation of TiO2 Photocatalysts, Ceramic Coatings and Inorganic Membranes; Colloids and Surfactants; Ionic Liquids in Environmental Applications.
The environmental engineering laboratories occupy approximately 16,000 sq ft of laboratory space. Laboratories are equipped with state-of-the-art equipment for analytical and environmental studies. In addition, there are several bench-scale and pilot-scale laboratory facilities to perform water and wastewater treatment studies, an aerosol and air quality laboratory, a gas pollution control laboratory, and a sate-of-the-art computational laboratory. All laboratories are integrated with lecture materials.
