معرفی
Dr. Dominique Claveau-Mallet is an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil, Geological and Mining Engineering at Polytechnique Montréal. She holds a Tier 2 Canada Research Chair in Water Treatment in Decentralized or Small-Scale Facilities and serves as Co-Director of the Environmental Engineering Laboratory. Her affiliations include membership in the Center for Research, Development and Validation of Water Treatment Technologies and Processes (CREDEAU) and the Geothermal and Hydrogeology Research Group.
Her research focuses on innovative solutions for water treatment challenges, with emphasis on:
- Decentralized wastewater systems and small-scale treatment facilities
- Microplastics capture and pollution mitigation strategies
- Phosphorus removal technologies using reactive filters
- Membrane filtration processes and hydraulic performance optimization
- Hydrogeology of contaminants in groundwater systems
Analysis of her recent publications reveals strong research trends in microplastics characterization (capture methods, environmental fate, citizen science approaches), advanced filtration systems (reactive filters, membrane technologies), and sustainable wastewater treatment solutions for decentralized applications. Her work frequently combines experimental research with practical implementation studies.
Awards & Recognition:
- Tier 2 Canada Research Chair (2020-present)
- Recipient of federal/provincial research grants including NSERC Discovery Grants
She actively supervises graduate students, having recently directed 2 doctoral theses and 5 master's theses on topics spanning membrane filtration, phosphorus removal, and microplastics mitigation. Her research receives significant media coverage for its environmental impact, particularly regarding microplastics capture technologies and septic system management.
Dr. Claveau-Mallet leads interdisciplinary teams at the Environmental Engineering Laboratory and collaborates extensively with municipal partners and citizen science initiatives. Current investigations focus on developing next-generation filtration systems and optimizing existing water treatment infrastructure for climate resilience.
