Dr. Jin's research is in the general area of the water-energy nexus. Specifically her research interests focus on:
Developing novel membrane processes and anti-fouling membrane materials for sustainable water supply (e.g., surface water filtration, brackish/seawater desalination)
Novel application of nanomaterials for advanced water treatment (e.g., disinfection, biofilm control)
Municipal and industrial wastewater treatment and beneficial reuse
Clean technology and renewable energy (e.g., algae-based bioenergy, osmotic power, biogas)
Colloidal and interfacial processes in aquatic systems
