Integration of the Humanities, Science, and Engineering Aspects of an Undergraduate Engineering Research Experience

2024
Dorothy W. Skaf, Vito L. Punzi

Summary

This paper integrated humanities, science, and engineering perspectives in an undergraduate research experience focused on water treatment, including sustainable separation processes applicable to drinking water, industrial wastewater, and hazardous waste remediation. The interdisciplinary curriculum aimed to prepare students for addressing complex environmental challenges.

Study Type Environmental

One of his ongoing research areas is the theoretical and applied aspects of traditional chemical engineering separation processes that can be used in drinking water, industrial wastewater, and hazardous waste treatment, including applications such as: the use of sustainable (non-chemical) additives derived shellfish wastes for the removal by coagulation of nanoparticulate matter the use of sustainable (no-chemical) additives for the purification and disinfection of potential drinking water sources. the removal of microplastics from surface water and groundwater that could potentially be used as a drinking water source.
