Jeff Wood

Jeff Wood is an Associate Professor at the MESA+ Institute, University of Twente. His research focuses on ion transport phenomena, electrokinetic processes, and hybrid unit operations. He holds a PhD from Queen's University Kingston (2012), specializing in spatially non-uniform electric fields for colloidal assembly.

Research Interests:

• Ion transport in electric-driven processes
• Membrane-based separation technologies
• Electroconvective instabilities
• Particle manipulation via AC electrokinetics
• Bubble dynamics in electrochemical systems

Recent work emphasizes sustainable water treatment solutions (PFAS removal, electrodialysis optimization) and novel membrane functionalization techniques. Collaborations span material science, environmental engineering, and microfluidics. Over 74 publications since 2006 highlight contributions to electrokinetics, nanochannel dynamics, and colloidal assembly.

Teaching includes advanced courses on colloids, fluid dynamics, and computational methods. Active in presenting at international conferences (2018–2023), focusing on electrochemical system design and process intensification.
