About Us
- Our lab at RUET focuses on solving challenges in energy, water, and sustainability by studying how tiny-scale phenomena can impact larger systems. We combine interfacial science, fluid mechanics, and soft matter physics to develop innovative solutions. Our experiments involve creating and testing advanced materials, operating small-scale fluid systems like microfluidic devices, and building tools that use microscopic effects to improve processes like phase changes and chemical reactions. By combining experiments with theoretical models, we aim to better understand how materials and fluids behave at the molecular and microscopic levels.
Our work is applied to areas like sustainable material design, resource recovery from waste, water purification, desalination, and addressing key issues in the energy-water nexus.
