Introduction to the Municipal Engineering Program

1. Theories of Healthy Water Circulation: Focuses on the comprehensive utilization and management of water resources, urban water supply safety technologies, and the integrated utilization of rainwater and reclaimed water.

2. Water Treatment Theories and Technologies: Includes research on urban wastewater treatment technologies, urban drinking water treatment technologies, and new materials for water treatment.

3. Urban Water Supply and Drainage Engineering: Covers the optimization of design and operation of water supply and drainage projects, theories and technologies for the design of water supply and drainage pipe networks, research on urban solid waste, and urban water-saving technologies.

4. Sponge City and Urban Waterlogging Prevention Technologies: Involves the research on planning methods and applications of urban drainage and waterlogging prevention systems under the sponge city framework, the establishment and effect evaluation of rain-flood models, the construction of urban ecological rainwater systems, and the design of green rainwater systems in residential communities and the evaluation of runoff control effects.

1. Research on Safety Guarantee Technologies for Urban Water Supply: The team has investigated the genotoxicity of organic pollutants in the Ganjiang River and analyzed their spatio-temporal distribution characteristics. A comprehensive evaluation of the genotoxicity of organic pollutants in the Ganjiang River was conducted through the detection of multiple genotoxicity endpoints combined with physical and chemical analyses. This research provides a solid theoretical basis for the study of genotoxicity of organic substances in the Ganjiang River and technical references for the treatment of urban domestic drinking water. Based on the characteristics of urban water resources and water environment, the team has also explored the evaluation index system and comprehensive evaluation method for the healthy circulation of urban water use.

2. Technologies for Removing Trace Pollutants in Water with New Adsorbent Materials: The research includes the preparation and performance characterization of new adsorbent materials, as well as the modification of ion-exchange fibers and activated carbon. Taking arsenic and trichlorophenol as target pollutants, static and dynamic experiments were carried out to study the removal performance and mechanism of the adsorbent materials for target pollutants. The optimal operating conditions for the reaction process and the regeneration methods and effects of the materials were also explored.

3. Research on New Water Treatment Technologies: The research focuses on ultrafiltration membrane treatment technology and high-voltage discharge plasma advanced oxidation technology. In addition, combined with the national pilot work of water-saving society construction, the team has conducted research on the theories and practices of water-saving societies, as well as studies on water-saving indicators and the evaluation system for water-saving societies.
