Research interests: metal speciation and catalysis, water quality
Current research: Understanding the interactions between iron and hydrogen
peroxide and its implications for the remediation of contaminated aquifers.
I am researching the mechanisms responsible for the decomposition of
hydrogen peroxide and pollutants in the presence of iron oxides so that the
remediation process can be optimized.
