Environmental Nanotechnology Lab
In our research, novel visualization and detection techniques are used to study a wide range of phenomena related to particle and contaminant transport in the subsoil and groundwater. The equipment in the Environmental Nanotechnology Lab (Envinanolab) includes instrumentation for the assessment of particle properties (stability, mobility, reactivity, size, concentration and slurry viscosity) and the identification of sedimentation processes for nanoremediation techniques.
