Utilizing the research I have collected, two doctoral candidates at École Nationale Supérieure des Industries Chimiques (ENSIC) in Nancy, France, are prepared to further their studies. Their main goal is to improve the design of activated-sludge based reactors for better fluid dynamics, achieved through detailed modeling using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. Additionally, they are focused on addressing urgent environmental issues like antibiotic-resistant bacteria and micropollutants. By conducting rigorous experiments and employing innovative methods, these candidates aim to develop new approaches for sustainable wastewater treatment, ensuring public health and ecological preservation for the future.
