William Groves

William Groves is an Associate Professor in the John and Willie Leone Department of Energy & Mineral Engineering at the Pennsylvania State University, part of the College of Earth and Mineral Sciences. His work bridges environmental engineering, occupational health, and sensor technology, with a strong focus on exposure assessment and instrumentation.

His research interests include development of sensors for organic vapors, breath analysis, physiologic monitoring, and mining safety. He has pioneered methods involving surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor arrays, physiologic sampling pumps, and real-time exposure assessment tools. His work supports safer workplaces and better environmental monitoring.

The recent publications reflect a consistent trajectory in environmental sensing, respiratory protection, and occupational exposure modeling. Key trends include the use of machine learning for ventilation prediction, low-cost particulate sensors, and advanced modeling of traffic and mining-related risks.
