From Nanobubbles and nanomaterials to reverse osmosis systems, Prof. Marina Freire-Gormaly’s research group is always looking for elegant solutions to wicked problems. Our team is invested in clean energy, water and environmental sustainability. We aim to understand how to improve existing systems and minimize their degradation by using recent developments in machine learning, advanced manufacturing and enhanced in-situ visualization. Furthermore, we aim to develop new instrumentation and techniques to address emerging areas to improve the sustainability of the systems we rely on for our daily life, such as for power generation and clean drinking water.
What's New
