Chad T. Jafvert works in environmental science, focusing on the fate and treatment of chemical pollutants in water, soil, and waste systems. Recent work spans topics like recycling materials from used lithium-ion batteries, removing contaminants from water using membranes and nanoparticles, predicting how organic chemicals partition between water and other materials, and studying river water quality and wastewater treatment. His research often combines laboratory experimentation with modeling to understand and address water and materials-related environmental problems.
