English Name: Laboratory for Environmental Technology

Location: Room D001 – VNUHCM-University of Science, Thu Duc Campus – Di An

  • Research on exhaust gas treatment: investigating methods to treat pollutants at source to minimize pollution and its impacts on humans and the environment.
  • Research on water treatment: wastewater treatment using biological methods and membrane technology; studying the structure and role of microorganisms in wastewater treatment using a biological model; applying algae to treat wastewater with high levels of N and P pollution; researching trace element treatment in tap water and wastewater using AOPs, MBR, and RO methods; and studying treatment process kinetics.
  • Research on clean water and environmental hygiene (Sustainable Development Goal 06 of the United Nations SDGs): identifying sources of pollution in clean water related to human activities (untreated greywater, inefficient septic tanks) and proposing measures to protect clean water resources.
  • Research on new materials for environmental treatment: researching the production of new biomaterials from readily available and cost-effective sources for the improvement, restoration, and treatment of the water and soil environment.
  • New materials for research on carbon-neutral energy, hydrogen production, conversion of CO2 into useful products, and treatment and conversion of solid waste and plastics into useful products.
  • Research on environmental microbiology, its application for water and soil treatment, and solutions for improving environments polluted by microorganisms.
  • Basic Research: Wastewater treatment
  • Applied Research: Advanced environmental treatment, aiming for water control and circulation.
  • Scientific and Technical Services:
  • The group has experience in operating wastewater treatment simulation models that comply with Vietnamese and international standards and regulations.
  • Skilled in using water analysis equipment.
  • Skilled in analyzing pollutants in surface water and industrial wastewater.
