Innovations toward sustainable anaerobic membrane bioreactor centered process for resource recovery, permeate quality and fouling controls

Dr. Jeonghwan Kim is a full professor in Department of Environmental Engineering at Inha University, Republic of Korea. He received his Ph.D. in Department of Environmental Sciences and Engineering from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (2005). Before joining Inha University in 2008, he worked as Post-doctoral Research Associate in Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Michigan State University. His research interests are anerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) and its centered processes for wastewater treatment and resource recovery. Specifically, his research areas on the AnMBR technology include fouling control and modelling tailored for reactor configuration, process intensification for methane production and permeate quality control as well as developing hybrid AnMBR system for high valued products and sustainable wastewater management.
