Dr Dionysiou, professor of Environmental Engineering and Science at the University of Cincinnati, will present examples of his work on the treatment of contaminants of emerging concern for applications related to drinking water treatment and water reuse applications. He will present details on the mechanism of degradation of cyanotoxins, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, sunscreen ingredients and other contaminants of concern using heterogeneous (i.e., semiconductor photocatalysis, photo-Fenton-like, dark-based catalytic) and homogeneous (UV/H2O2, UV/persfulfate, UV/chlorine) advanced oxidation processes.
The welcome speech will be provided by Prof. Sean Wellington, Principal Vice Chancellor, Executive Dean of Science & Technology of Middlesex University.
The lecture will be followed by wine reception.
