Straub Research Group at our 2024 winter retreat

Straub Research Group (winter retreat, 2024)

Water, Energy, and the Environment

Our group works on challenges at the intersection of water, energy, and the environment

Harvesting sustainable energy

Harvesting sustainable energy from waste heat with membrane systems

Membrane materials

Membrane materials with high hydrophobicity and permeability

Energy consumption in emerging desalination systems

System-scale analysis of energy consumption in emerging desalination systems

Environmental Technologies at the Water-Energy Nexus

Our research focuses on emerging technologies for advanced water treatment and power generation. Much of our interest lies in utilizing membrane-based processes, which offer advantages in efficiency, size, and scalability. We use a variety to research methods in our investigations including materials fabrication, laboratory proof-of-concept testing, and full-scale theoretical simulations. More information about our ongoing research projects is available on our Research Page.

Our group is led by Prof. Anthony Straub in the Environmental Engineering Program and Materials Science and Engineering Program at the University of baby直播app Boulder. Information on our group members, including Prof. Straub, can be found on the People Page.
