Matthew Landsman
Assistant Professor, School of Sustainable Engineering and the Built Environment
Matthew Landsman is an assistant professor of environmental engineering in the School of Sustainable Engineering and the Built Environment. Before coming to ASU, he held a two-year postdoctoral fellowship at the Advanced Light Source at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, where he used synchrotron X-rays to characterize and advance new technologles for water purification. Landsman’s teaching and research interests revolve around water quality and treatment as well as physical and chemical processes within natural and engineered systems.
Ready to mentor
My group designs and studies new materials (e.g., membranes, sorbents) for water purification and resource recovery. Our work combines water chemistry, polymer science, and engineering design. Researchers will gain hands-on laboratory experience in making materials, characterizing their properties, and evaluating their performance in real-world applications.
