MEEHAN, Barry - Associate Professor

Barry and his group carry out research at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels looking into strategies to recover wastes (mainly water and biosolids generated in water treatment). They also look at the effects of these wastes on the environment when reused. For instance they have looked at the impact of grey water and reclaimed water on the productivity of soils. All of these activities are related to responses to lower rainfall and the urgent need to better manage freshwater resources in the face of changing climates.
