Dr. Mohamed Gamal El-Din is a Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Alberta. His research focuses on the fundamentals of advanced and innovative treatment approaches for water and wastewater (municipal and industrial such as oil and gas). Since 2011, he holds an NSERC Senior Industrial Research Chair (IRC) in Oil Sands Tailings Water Treatment. He is also one of the Theme Leads of the Future Energy Systems (FES) theme on Resilient Reclaimed Land and Water Systems, a 75-million multidisciplinary research from the Canada First Research Excellence Fund. Because of his contributions in the area of oil sands process water treatment/reclamation, in 2017, Dr. Gamal El-Din received the Alberta Science and Technology Leadership (ASTech) Foundation Award for Innovation in Oil Sands Research. His research work has resulted in important advancements in the area of advanced oxidation and ozone treatment, membrane separation and biological processes. Another part of his research program has centered on the development of new materials and their applications in water and wastewater treatment. Dr. Gamal El-Din’s research program also focuses on the development of cost-effective and simple, yet highly efficient treatment systems for rural communities in both industrialized and developing countries. Over the period from 2001 to 2019, Dr. Gamal El-Din has supervised 28 postdoctoral fellows, 34 Ph.D. students, 63 Master’s students, 9 research assistants, 6 research associates, 5 technicians, and 20 summer students. Dr. Gamal El-Din’s research has resulted in more than 216 refereed journal papers, 94 refereed conference papers, 333 conference and workshop presentations, 32 technical reports, 7 book chapters, and a number of other articles. Currently, Dr. Gamal El-Din’s h-index is 48 (7683 citations) as per Google Scholar.

A Step Towards Sustainable Ecosystems: From Active to Engineered Passive Treatment/Reclamation Approaches for Municipal and Industrial Wastewater
讲座简介:
Multiple phases of energy production and electricity generation such as oil and natural gas use water. Conversely, water and wastewater treatment plants require energy to provide water of appropriate quality for diverse human uses. Energy and water systems have been developed, managed, and regulated independently. However, the complexity at the energy-water nexus demands a coordinated and integrated effort to interconnect energy and water resources. Taking into consideration the energy-water nexus for the effective management of water and energy, wastewater treatment and reclamation strategies have been switched from active approaches (i.e., high-energy requirements) to engineered passive or referred to as semi-passive treatment approaches (low-energy requirement) or a combination of the two.
Actives approaches such as high pressure-driven membranes and advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have been found to be effective to remove ionic species and dissolved organics, respectively. The drawback of these treatment approaches is the energy requirements.
As an example of engineered passive reclamation systems, solar-driven in-situ advanced oxidation processes can play a major role in enhancing the reclamation of industrial process water. In addition, hydrogen peroxide can be generated in-situ by using sludge-based biochar, showing promising results for the degradation of organic contaminants.
New materials applicable to the treatment/reclamation of industrial wastewater have also been developed with different textural and chemical properties such as carbon xerogel that was proved to be an excellent alternative to activated carbon due to their mesoporous property and well controlled pore size. In addition, sludge-based biochars are being developed to tailor their physical and/or chemical properties in order to optimize their performance for specific applications such as adsorption and catalytic advanced oxidation processes.
This presentation will give an overview of the main advantages and drawbacks of some of the active and engineered passive wastewater treatment/reclamation approaches.

Facultative Quorum Quenching Consortiums for Membrane Fouling Control in Anaerobic MBR
讲座简介:
Anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) technology is being recognized as an appealing strategy for wastewater treatment. However, severity of membrane fouling inhibits its widespread implementations. This study engineered novel facultative quorum quenching consortiums (FQQs) coping with membrane fouling in AnMBRs with preliminary analysis for their quorum quenching (QQ) performances. Three FQQs, namely, FQQ-C6, FQQ-C8 and FQQ-C10, were harvested after anaerobic screening of aerobic QQ consortiums (AeQQs) which were isolated by enrichment culture, aiming to degrade C6-HSL, C8-HSL and C10-HSL, respectively. The performance of FQQ-C6, FQQ-C8 and FQQ-C10 to alleviated extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) production and their effectiveness in controlling membrane fouling in a lab-scale AnMBR shall be presented and discussed.
