Description: The scientific mission of the Institute is to determine the effects of nano- and micro-particles (e.g., bacteria, natural organic matter, and mineral aggregates) on contaminant transport in geologic systems. The Institute blends the environmental science and engineering expertise and facilities of the university with those at Argonne, Sandia, and Oak Ridge National Laboratories, as well as at DuPont Engineering Technology. The Institute integrates traditional macroscopic and microscopic techniques with state-of-the-art molecular-scale approaches such as x-ray absorption spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and molecular dynamics modeling.
