Join us this Friday, November 15th, 2025, at 10:00 CET for a special ATHENA Talk! We are honored to welcome Professor Danae Venieri, Vice-Rector of the Technical University of Crete and a Chemical and Environmental Engineering faculty member.
Professor Venieri’s talk, “Photocatalytic Applications for Disinfection Purposes,” will explore how light sources and semiconducting materials are transforming environmental remediation. Discover the latest in photocatalytic disinfection using sunlight—an exciting, sustainable approach to managing microbial populations in water.
Topics will include:
- Advances in photocatalytic materials, like modified titania for visible light
- Factors affecting disinfection kinetics: reactor design, water matrix, and microbial selection
- Mechanisms of Microbial Destruction and the future of Scaling up this technology
