Peter R. Jaffé is the William L. Knapp '47 Professor of Civil Engineering and Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Princeton University. He holds concurrent appointments as Associated Faculty at the High Meadows Environmental Institute, the Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment (ACEE), and the Princeton Institute for the Science and Technology of Materials (PRISM). His educational background includes: B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Universidad Simón Bolívar, Caracas, Venezuela (1977) M.S. in Environmental and Water Resources Engineering from Vanderbilt University (1980) Ph.D. in Environmental and Water Resources Engineering from Vanderbilt University (1981) Professor Jaffé's research centers on biogeochemical processes governing pollutant transport and transformation in the environment, with a focus on remediation of contaminated systems. Key areas include the Feammox process (ammonium oxidation under iron-reducing conditions) for ammonium removal and co-metabolical degradation of PFAS, nanoparticle-enhanced bioremediation , and dynamics of trace metals and radioisotopes in sediments and groundwater. His work integrates laboratory and field experiments with mathematical modeling to develop novel biological waste treatment processes, particularly for urban nitrogen cycling and PFAS defluorination. His distinguished contributions have been recognized with several awards: Excellent International Cooperation Project Award for "Application of Feammox Process in Wastewater Treatment" from the Guangzhou Association of Industrial Environmental Protection (2017) Election as Fellow of the American Geophysical Union (2012) Board Certified Environmental Engineering Member (BCEEM) of the American Academy of Environmental Engineers (AAEE) by Eminence (2008) Professor Jaffé actively mentors graduate students, with several of his advisees receiving prestigious awards. Notable examples include Matthew Sima and Mauricio Pereira, who received the School of Engineering and Applied Science Award for Excellence; Jinhee Park, winner of the Geosyntec 2023 GWAG Student Competition first prize; and Chiara Smorada, recipient of an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship. His research is supported by projects that blaze new trails in water, climate, and energy research, as evidenced by Dean for Research Innovation funding. While specific lab names are not detailed, Jaffé leads research groups focused on biogeochemical processes, particularly investigating the Feammox process and its applications in wastewater treatment. His team collaborates across multiple Princeton institutes, including the High Meadows Environmental Institute and ACEE, to address challenges in sustainable water treatment and environmental remediation.
