Innovative Materials for Water-Energy-Health Nexus
The Shuai Research Group specializes in catalysis, nanotechnology, water quality engineering, and material-biological interactions.

We aim to apply materials-based strategies for sustainable water purification, renewable energy production, and infectious disease prevention. Our current research focuses on advanced treatment technologies (e.g., oxidation, reduction, separation) for water purification with reduced energy and chemical footprint, production of renewable energy, and antimicrobial development for inactivating waterborne, foodborne, and airborne pathogens.
