Welcome. We at Environmental Engineering are a vibrant group of faculty, students and scientific officers, working closely with one another in the pursuit of academic excellence. We are committed to employing scientific methodology and knowledge as a means of preserving nature from human pollution. Our research spans the treatment of water and wastewater, through to air quality modeling, to solid waste management. Our undergraduate and graduate students work in a state-of-the-art laboratory, exploring exciting questions related to the acidification of surface waters, to discharges of waste gases from thermal power plants, to the composting of water hyacinth. We strive to provide our undergraduate students with the requisite tools to predict the behaviour of pollutants in natural systems and to design appropriate remediation technologies. We train our graduate students to view nature with the eyes of an environmental engineer and to think and work independently. Our faculty thoroughly enjoy working with young minds in the effort to solve problems that require answers right now.

Environmental Engineering laboratory is equipped with most of the sophisticated instruments such as Atomic Absorption Spectrometer for heavy metals analysis in ppb levels Gas Chromatographs, Ion Chromatograph and a high performance liquid chromatograph for analyzing organic and inorganic compounds. The laboratory is also equipped with UV-Visible Spectrometer, particle size analyzer.

The division has a well equipped micro-biology laboratory to enrich, isolate, and identify micro-organisms. The UG / PG laboratory is equipped with all the instruments for air quality, water quality and wastewater analysis, solid waste and hazardous waste characterization.
