Welcome
Welcome to the Christie Research Group at Louisiana State University! Our research focuses on developing better water reuse technologies. Climate change and population growth are challenging our fresh water resources (i.e., lakes and rivers), and efficient water reuse technologies are required to sustain industrial manufacturing, public health, and environmental health. Our goal is to expand water reuse capacity by investigating the materials and fundamental mechanisms involved in separations processes.
