  Research expertise includes the use and fouling of microfiltration and ultrafiltration membranes for potable water production

  fouling of reverse osmosis membranes when used for tertiary wastewater treatment for reuse applications

  selective recovery and beneficial use of salts and minerals from desalination concentrate

  increasing the recovery of reverse osmosis by minimizing scaling

  and removal of pharmaceuticals during tertiary wastewater treatment using ozone/biofiltration.\n\nThe Center for Water and the Environment is focused on cutting-edge research into technological and engineering-based solutions to problems with water and the environment

  in a framework that considers the social

  economic

  policy

  and legal implications. Practical solutions to problems related to water availability and quality in arid environments and in times of drought

  and problems associated with energy development and consumption are particularly relevant to the Center's mission.

  Dr. Howe was involved in many aspects of water treatment engineering including treatability studies

  facility evaluations

  master plans

  pilot studies

  predesign

  detailed design

  construction management

  and plant startup. He was the lead project engineer for the design and construction of a 100 mgd conventional water treatment plant in Tulsa
