Engineering Researchers Develop Advanced Technique for Water Purification
(February 20, 2008) Shankar Chellam, professor of environmental engineering at the UH Cullen College of Engineering, and environmental engineering graduate student, Appala Raju Badireddy, have demonstrated a new technique that reduces the biological fouling of water purification filters caused by the growth of bacteria colonies and the formation of biofilm. Featured on the cover of the February issue of Biotechnology & Bioengineering, Chellam’s findings may lead to more advanced methods of treating membrane filters.
