My PhD study focused on understanding and optimising the nanostructure of graphene oxide membranes for enhanced transport and separation performance. I'm also experienced with membrane techologies, colloidal systems, surface chemistry, sensors and solar-desalination.
I'm currently working with Prof. Jason Ren and Prof. Claire White, aiming at developing novel materials and processes to achieve carbon-neutral/negative treatment of nontraditional waters and resource recovery.
