Biography
Nashita Moona is a PhD student at the division of Water Environment Technology. Her project focuses on developing methods to evaluate the affectivity of drinking water treatment plant barriers under normal and stressful conditions. Additionally under her project, optimization of these treatment plant barriers performances will be investigated. Methods that will be used are: surrogate microorganisms, fluorescence spectroscopy for development of models to evaluate barriers effectiveness and for hydraulic modelling.
