Industrial wastewater reclamation utilizing an engineered membrane with disparate wetting ability Kalam, Sifat

Description

Sifat Kalam was a semi-finalist in the 2022 UBC Three Minute Thesis (3MT) competition. Sifat presented their research, "Industrial wastewater reclamation utilizing an engineered membrane with disparate wetting ability.” They are exploring the engineering of a membrane with abilities to prevent fouling & wetting during the membrane-based distillation desalination process separating the hot wastewater from the cold clean water with the goal of making production of clean water become more efficient. Sifat Kalam is completing their PhD in Civil Engineering in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of British Columbia under the supervision of Dr. Jongho Lee.
