An opportunity to contribute knowledge to the scientific community
After completing his Ph.D. in industrial chemistry in Nigeria, his home country, Dr. Ugochukwu Ewuzie worked as a laboratory scientist for a global energy company. Spending his days working on synthetic fuels and waste created by various refining processes, Ewuzie began to wonder not just how to reuse those waste byproducts but how to reuse them in a way that’s good for the environment. That’s where the road to Missouri S&T and his second Ph.D., this one in chemical engineering, began to pave itself in concrete—literally.

t is an uphill battle to extract pollutants such as heavy metals, hydrocarbons, and radioactive metals from industrial waste and water run-off. Researchers typically focus on cleaning and purifying wastewater to prevent those pollutants from entering the environment and damaging ecosystems. But a team of researchers from Missouri S&T have devised a way to not only clean up heavy metals from the wastewater, but also facilitate recycling the chemicals used and reusing the metals that are extracted.
