Center
for Experimental Study of Subsurface Environmental Processes
The Center for Experimental Study of Subsurface Environmental
Processes (CESEP) was established in 2001 with the central mission to
enhance environmental quality through innovative research of subsurface
remediation techniques for the clean-up of environmental contaminants
leading to improved methodology and decision-making. This center emphasizes
the multi-disciplinary nature of subsurface remediation technologies by
integrating the fundamental sciences of chemistry, biology, geology, hydrology
and physics with applied geotechnical, civil and environmental engineering
sciences. The Center currently has a number of university and industry
collaborators from US and abroad.
AQWATEC
AQWATEC is a new research center at the Colorado School of Mines. The center was established in 2006 to support the advancement of the campus' thrust areas of water and renewable energy. The Mission of the Center is to advance the science of emerging water treatment processes/hybrids enabling sustainable and energy efficient utilization of impaired water sources for potable and non-potable water supplies.
