SUMMARY:EWC Seminar by Francis de los Reyes (NCSU): An Engineer Talks About Poop
DESCRIPTION:Environmental\, Water Resources\, and Coastal Engineering Seminar Series \nFitts-Woolard Hall 2331 \nAn Engineer Talks About Poop (Alternatively\, Challenges and Opportunities in Global Sanitation) \nAbstract: Most people don’t think about or don’t want to think about what happens to human waste- fecal material. Where do we poop\, where does it go? This is a big\, global problem: 2020 WHO/UNICEF data show that 3.6 billion people- 46% of the global population- don’t use a toilet or latrine where the fecal material is safely treated and disposed. This is a wicked problem that touches on engineering\, public health\, social and cultural dimensions\, and has economic impacts in less developed countries. This presentation will discuss a systems view of the sanitation “value” chain- from the user interface\, the toilet or latrine\, to the collection and transport of fecal material\, to treatment and disposal. Key factors for addressing this global challenge will be discussed\, including how to re-think sanitation technologies. \nOne major project is developing a hygienic and dignified way of emptying pit latrines. Every day\, pit latrines receive an estimated 0.6 billion kg of faeces and 2.1 billion kg of urine from 1.77 billion people around the world. Once pits are full\, fecal sludge has to be removed\, before being transported and treated/reused. Manual emptying of pit latrines using buckets and shovels still exist today – a high-risk\, unsanitary\, and undignified job. One of the biggest challenges in this field is developing a single pit emptying technology that can empty trash-filled pits at a competitive cost. Our NC State University team has developed the innovative pit-emptying device\, the Flexcrevator. This device removes fecal sludge even in the presence of trash in pits. The Flexcrevator system has been developed over 6 years with extensive field testing in South Africa\, Zambia\, Malawi\, Kenya\, and India\, with funding from the Bill & Melinda\nGates Foundation\, and has recently been patented. Our overall goal is to demonstrate how the Flexcrevator can scale-up to meet global demand for hygienic and profitable pit emptying\, thereby improving sanitation practices and access world-wide. The presentation includes the design evolution of the trash exclusion head\, lab testing results with faecal sludge simulants and trash\, and field testing results from Zambia\, Kenya\, Madagascar\, and Rwanda. The challenges and lessons learned in designing this technology will be discussed. \nBiography: Francis de los Reyes is the Glenn E. and Phyllis J. Futrell Distinguished Professor #2 of Civil\, Construction\, and Environmental Engineering\, Alumni Distinguished Undergraduate Professor\, and University Faculty Scholar at North Carolina State University. He is also an Associate Faculty of Microbiology and Training Faculty of Biotechnology. He has also worked in water and sanitation issues in developing countries\, and has collaborations in the Philippines\, India\, China\, South Africa\, Pakistan\, Ghana\, and Malawi. Current and past research projects include: competition between filaments and floc-formers in activated sludge\, ecophysiology of nitrifiers and denitrifiers in microbial floc\, N removal from swine waste\, fate of bioagents in landfills\, microbial characterization of landfills\, molecular techniques for groundwater remediation sites\, foam control methods\, factors affecting fats\, oils\, and grease deposits in sewers\, wastewater treatment for rural areas\, water reuse systems\, novel molecular techniques for detecting denitrifiers\, energy from co-digestion\, and solutions for pit latrine emptying problems.

SUMMARY:Seminar: Waves Through Aquatic Vegetation: Flow-Vegetation Hydrodynamics and Sediment Transport
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Aquatic vegetation alters the flow and sediment mobility within and around them\, shaping coastal environments in the long term. Improved sediment transport relations for vegetated flows become fundamental for predicting sediment transport rates through aquatic coastal ecosystems. We investigate suspended sediment transport under flow-vegetation hydrodynamics in oscillatory boundary layers. We conduct experiments in a U-shaped oscillatory tunnel using optical techniques\, including 2D and 3D particle image velocimetry. We explore how aquatic plants change the near-bed and in-canopy hydrodynamics from the single-plant scale to the vegetation patch scale. For a single plant\, we study the effect of vegetation morphology (shape and biomechanics) on the turbulence characteristics. We focus on the vegetation drag at the canopy top and near the bed to explore the flow-vegetation hydrodynamics. For sediment experiments\, we evaluate the impact of vegetation on the suspended sediment transport mechanisms. These various boundaries inform for a better assessment of the role of aquatic vegetation as eco-engineers in wave-dominated environments. \nJorge San Juan is a postdoctoral associate at St. Anthony Falls Laboratory in the Department of Civil\, Environmental\, and Geo-Engineering at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities. His research focuses on coastal eco-hydraulics\, eco-morphodynamics\, and experimental methods. Dr. San Juan completed his B.S. (2012) at the University of Cartagena (Colombia) in civil engineering. He received his M.S. (2016) and Ph.D. (2021) from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in Water Resources Engineering and Science in Civil and Environmental Engineering. He is one of the co-founders of the Latinx/Latin American Academic (LLAmA) Talks initiative and an active member of Geolatinas.

SUMMARY:Shaw Lecture with Dr. Julian Agyeman (Tufts University)
DESCRIPTION:Shaw Lecture: Just Sustainabilites in Policy\, Planning and Practice with Dr. Julain Agyeman\n\nIn his talk\, Julian will outline the concept of just sustainabilities as a response to the ‘equity deficit’ of much sustainability thinking and practice. He will explore his contention that who can belong in our cities will ultimately determine what our cities can become. He will illustrate his ideas with examples from urban planning and design and the ‘Minneapolis Paradox’.\n\nJulian Agyeman Ph.D. FRSA FRGS is a Professor of Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning at Tufts University. He is the originator of the increasingly influential concept of just sustainabilities\, the intentional integration of social justice and environmental sustainability. He centers his research on critical explorations of the complex and embedded relations between humans and the urban environment\, whether mediated by governments or social movement organizations\, and their effects on public policy and planning processes and outcomes\, particularly in relation to notions of justice and equity. \nHe believes that what our cities can become (sustainable\, smart\, sharing and resilient) and who is allowed to belong in them (recognition of difference\, diversity\, and a right to the city) are fundamentally and inextricably interlinked. We must therefore act on both belonging and becoming\, together\, using just sustainabilities as the anchor\, or face deepening spatial and social inequities and inequalities. \nHe is the author or editor of 13 books\, including  Just Sustainabilities: Development in an Unequal World (MIT Press\, 2003)\, Cultivating Food Justice: Race\, Class and Sustainability (MIT Press\, 2011)\, and Sharing Cities: A Case for Truly Smart and Sustainable Cities (MIT Press\, 2015)\, one of Nature’s Top 20 Books of 2015. In 2018\, he was awarded the Athena City Accolade by KTH Royal Institute of Technology\, Stockholm\, Sweden\, for his “outstanding contribution to the field of social justice and ecological sustainability\, environmental policy and planning“. \nFor a full biography please visit: https://julianagyeman.com

SUMMARY:EWC Seminar: Following the Microbes in Maputo\, Mozambique: The Maputo Sanitation Trial
DESCRIPTION:Following the Microbes in Maputo\, Mozambique: The Maputo  Sanitation Trial  \nSpeaker: Drew Capone\, Ph.D.\, Post-Doc\, Department of Environmental Sciences and Engineering\, UNC-Chapel Hill \nSummary: The Maputo Sanitation (MapSan) Trial is a controlled before-and-after evaluation of a shared onsite  sanitation intervention in urban Maputo\, Mozambique. Intervention compounds (i.e.\, clusters of  households) received a pour flush to septic tank system with a soakaway pit for subsurface infiltration  of aqueous effluent\, while control compounds continued using existing shared sanitation. During trial  baseline and the 12-month and 24-month follow-up periods we collected soils\, flies\, and fecal  sludges from the living environment of trial compounds. We evaluated samples using culture\,  microscopy\, and molecular methods to evaluate the impact of the intervention on environmental fecal  contamination and advance our understanding of the fate and transport of enteric pathogens in low income urban environments. We found that the intervention reduced the presence of some fecal  contamination in the domestic environment\, but pathogen detection remained prevalent 24 months  following the introduction of new latrines. Using quantitative microbial risk assessment\, we estimated  infection risk from exposure to fecally contaminated soils was high for infants and children. Modelling  source apportionment of fecal wastes suggested that the daily transport of small quantities of child  feces or infrequent transport of moderate amounts of fecal sludges could plausibly explain observed  fecal contamination in soils. Together\, these results suggest a sustainable environmental response to  the risks posed by fecal-oral pathogens in low-income urban settings will require policies and  strategies capable of achieving a nearly complete reduction in the feces transported to the living  environment. \nJoin in person at Fitts-Woolard Hall Room 2321 or virtually via Zoom: go.ncsu.edu/ewcseminar \n  \nThis is a joint presentation from Environmental Water Resources and Coastal Engineering Seminar NC State University Global WaSH Cluster Speaker Series

SUMMARY:EWC Seminar: Waves Through Aquatic Vegetation: Flow-Vegetation Hydrodynamics and Sediment Transport
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Aquatic vegetation alters the flow and sediment mobility within and around them\, shaping coastal environments in the long term. Improved sediment transport relations for vegetated flows become fundamental for predicting sediment transport rates through aquatic coastal ecosystems. We investigate suspended sediment transport under flow-vegetation hydrodynamics in oscillatory boundary layers. We conduct experiments in a U-shaped oscillatory tunnel using optical techniques\, including 2D and 3D particle image velocimetry. We explore how aquatic plants change the near-bed and in-canopy hydrodynamics from the single-plant scale to the vegetation patch scale. For a single plant\, we study the effect of vegetation morphology (shape and biomechanics) on the turbulence characteristics. We focus on the vegetation drag at the canopy top and near the bed to explore the flow-vegetation hydrodynamics. For sediment experiments\, we evaluate the impact of vegetation on the suspended sediment transport mechanisms. These various boundaries inform for a better assessment of the role of aquatic vegetation as eco-engineers in wave-dominated environments.\n\nBio: Jorge San Juan is a postdoctoral associate at St. Anthony Falls Laboratory in the Department of Civil\, Environmental\, and Geo-Engineering at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities.

SUMMARY:EWC Seminar by Liang Liu (CARB):  An overview of California’s 2020 mobile source strategy in the off-road sector
DESCRIPTION:Environmental\, Water Resources\, and Coastal Engineering Seminar Series \nVirtual seminar: https://ncsu.zoom.us/j/96075468552?pwd=RlZvb2x2YmM3c25KQWdRaXNEdVhUUT09 \n An overview of California’s 2020 mobile source strategy in the off-road sector \nAbstract: The California Air Resources Board (CARB) 2020 Mobile Source Strategy (MSS) is a strategy document that illustrates the technology mixes needed to reduce emissions from California’s transportation sector. This includes cars\, trucks\, trains\, ships\, aircraft\, and all other on-road and off-road equipment. The MSS explores technologies for California to meet its various clean air goals including federal ambient air quality standards\, community risk reduction\, and ambitious mid- and long-term climate change targets. This presentation focuses on the control strategy in the off-road sector. Off-road covers a wide range of sectors including locomotives\, ocean-going vessels\, commercial harbor craft\, construction and mining\, lawn and garden\, aircraft and many other industries. Off-road engines are significant sources of air pollutants such as nitrogen oxides (NOx)\, reactive organic gases (ROG)\, and diesel particulate matter (PM). Off-road has surpassed on-road vehicles as the largest source of statewide NOx emissions in 2017. As the regulations for off-road equipment tend to follow those for on-road vehicles by a few years\, the relative contribution of emissions from off-road equipment is expected to continue to grow\, absent additional controls. \nBiography: Dr. Liu received her bachelor’s degrees in environmental science and Economics from Peking University in Beijing. She went on to receive her master’s and Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering from the University of Illinois. Her Ph.D. work focuses on air emissions from mobile sources and the overall health and climate impacts from freight transportation. Dr. Liu currently works for the California Air Resources Board (CARB) in the Mobile Source Branch\, specifically in the Off-Road Diesel Analysis Section. Her work mainly includes development of off-road emission inventories and rule measures to support CARB’s air quality\, public health\, and climate goals.

SUMMARY:EWC Seminar by Kofi Christie (Princeton): Membrane distillation for high salinity brine management: Scaling and energy efficiency
DESCRIPTION:Environmental\, Water Resources\, and Coastal Engineering Seminar Series \nVirtual seminar: https://ncsu.zoom.us/j/96075468552?pwd=RlZvb2x2YmM3c25KQWdRaXNEdVhUUT09 \nAbstract: Membrane distillation (MD)\, a hybrid thermal-membrane desalination technology\, has recently received tremendous interest as a sustainable technology for the treatment of hypersaline brines. MD is tolerant to higher salinity than reverse osmosis (RO) and capable of leveraging low-grade thermal energy such as waste heat and geothermal energy. However\, several fundamental aspects need to be addressed to achieve resilient MD systems for industrial applications. In this seminar\, I will present and discuss two of such aspects from the perspectives of process optimization. First MD performance is constrained by inorganic fouling from mineral growth\, or scaling\, due to the increased concentration over time of sparingly-soluble feed water constituents. Accordingly\, careful control of the driving force for feed water concentration (i.e.\, the vapor pressure gradient across the hydrophobic membrane) has been used to improve the robustness of MD performance. Recently we discovered that an equivalent trans-membrane vapor flux (i.e.\, the rate of vapor transferred through the membrane per unit area) can be achieved at varying feed water temperatures by separately controlling the vapor pressure on the opposite side of the membrane. Such control has enabled the investigation of the thermodynamic state of the nucleating minerals at the interface between the feed water and the membrane. Second\, MD is highly competitive to RO when lowgrade thermal energy is applied efficiently. I will present findings that elucidate the nuanced variations in energy efficiency definitions when varying heat sources and operational configurations are applied. Our work highlights the importance of determining whether the integration of low-grade thermal energy will minimize the costly high-grade energy to maintain the process or maximize the usage of the greatest amount of latent heat upon feed recycling. At the conclusion of the seminar\, I will also discuss the prospects and research needs associated with MD to improve environmental sustainability at the water-energy nexus. \nBiography: Dr. Kofi Christie is a postdoctoral research associate in the Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment as well as the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Princeton University. Dr. Christie grew up in Atlanta\, GA and received his B.S. degree from Morehouse College in 2014\, and his M.S. and Ph.D. from Vanderbilt University in 2016 and 2020\, respectively. He worked with Prof. Shihong Lin for his doctoral dissertation\, where he sought to advance water treatment and desalination technologies for high-salinity wastewater. His thesis focused on expanding our understanding of membrane distillation through module-scale thermodynamic analysis and elucidation of the causes and effects of inorganic fouling on membrane surfaces. At Princeton University\, Dr. Christie is working in the WET (Water & Energy Technologies) Lab of Prof. Z. Jason Ren. Dr. Christie’s work explores the intersection of membrane separation and crystal nucleation to sustainably recover solid and liquid resources from wastewater streams associated with coal-fired power plants. Additionally\, Dr. Christie works under the mentorship of Rodney Priestley\, Pomeroy and Betty Perry Smith Professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering. He is the recipient of several academic and professional awards\, including the National Science Foundation (NSF) Innovation Corps Grant (2020)\, the Princeton Presidential Postdoctoral Fellowship (2020)\, the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship (2015)\, and the IBM-Vanderbilt Graduate Fellowship (2014).
