A research opportunity is available at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Office of Research and Development (ORD), Center for Environmental Solutions and Emergency Response (CESER), Land Remediation and Technology Division (LRTD) located in Cincinnati, Ohio.
The primary focus of the research will be on environmental transformations of metals that affect their transport and toxicity along with remediation of metal-contaminated sites. This research project will develop a study of pyrite oxidation to determine how much it affects groundwater quality and the use of sulfate-reducing bioreactors in the remediation of mining-impacted water. Secondary focus of this research project will be on the transformation of engineered nanomaterials that are released to the environment and remediation of contaminated sites.
