Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sewage treatment
  • Wastewater
  • Water pollution

His primary areas of study are Membrane bioreactor, Activated sludge, Fouling, Membrane fouling and Wastewater. His Fouling research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Environmental chemistry and Permeation. His research investigates the connection between Membrane fouling and topics such as Pulp and paper industry that intersect with problems in Filtration.

Thomas Wintgens's looking at Wastewater as part of his Waste management and Environmental engineering and Wastewater study. His research on Waste management frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Reverse osmosis. His research in Reverse osmosis tackles topics such as Raw water which are related to areas like Membrane technology.

His most cited work include:

  • State-of-the-art of reverse osmosis desalination (1214 citations)
  • Membrane bioreactor technology for wastewater treatment and reuse (340 citations)
  • Wastewater reuse in Europe (332 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Wastewater, Environmental engineering, Membrane technology, Nanofiltration and Effluent. His work carried out in the field of Wastewater brings together such families of science as Pulp and paper industry and Sewage treatment. His work focuses on many connections between Environmental engineering and other disciplines, such as Reuse, that overlap with his field of interest in Environmental planning and Water resource management.

The concepts of his Membrane technology study are interwoven with issues in Chromatography and Leachate. His study in Nanofiltration is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sludge, Reverse osmosis and Permeation. His Effluent study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental chemistry and Ultrafiltration.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Wastewater (41.67%)
  • Environmental engineering (35.00%)
  • Membrane technology (28.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Ultrafiltration (10.00%)
  • Nanofiltration (30.00%)
  • Wastewater (41.67%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Ultrafiltration, Nanofiltration, Wastewater, Effluent and Environmental engineering are his primary areas of study. His Nanofiltration research includes elements of Chemical engineering and Permeation. His studies in Permeation integrate themes in fields like Sludge, Layer by layer and Ultrafiltration.

His Wastewater study incorporates themes from Filter, Pulp and paper industry and Sewage treatment. The Effluent study combines topics in areas such as Chromatography, Portable water purification and Water supply. The various areas that Thomas Wintgens examines in his Environmental engineering study include Reverse osmosis, Forward osmosis and Membrane fouling, Fouling.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Comparison of two PAC/UF processes for the removal of micropollutants from wastewater treatment plant effluent: Process performance and removal efficiency (75 citations)
  • Detection of SARS-CoV-2 in raw and treated wastewater in Germany – Suitability for COVID-19 surveillance and potential transmission risks (55 citations)
  • Forward osmosis for the treatment of reverse osmosis concentrate from water reclamation: process performance and fouling control. (21 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Sewage treatment
  • Sustainability
  • Water pollution

Thomas Wintgens mostly deals with Sewage treatment, Wastewater, Ultrafiltration, Effluent and Transmission. Thomas Wintgens interconnects Reverse osmosis, Zero liquid discharge, Forward osmosis, Environmental engineering and Fouling in the investigation of issues within Ultrafiltration. His Effluent study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Chromatography and Pulp and paper industry.

His Transmission research includes a combination of various areas of study, such as Coronavirus, Infectivity, Polymerase chain reaction, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and Biotechnology.
