Introducing Eva Steinle-Darling... (recent graduate)

My research interests are at the intersection of the current work in the Reinhard group, specifically looking at the rejection of trace organic contaminants by reverse osmosis and nanofiltration. Please see my thesis abstract for more details. Thesis "Rejection of Trace Organics - Nitrosamines, Perfluorochemicals, and Others - via Reverse Osmosis and Nanofiltration" submitted in May 2008 Abstract: Reverse osmosis (RO) and nanofiltration (NF) are increasingly used to treat recycled water due to their general efficiency at removing organic and inorganic contaminants as well as their value as an absolute barrier to pathogens.
