ARUP SENGUPTA

Senior Research Scientist and Professor Emeritus

About

For well over three decades, Arup K. Sengupta's research has encompassed nearly every aspect of water science and technology: from drinking water treatment to desalination to municipal wastewater reuse to resource recovery. SenGupta is internationally recognized for advancing and expanding the field of ion exchange science and technology, and applying it for development of sustainable technologies and new materials. He is the inventor of the first reusable, arsenic-selective hybrid anion exchanger nanomaterial (HAIX-Nano), which has provided arsenic-safe water to over two million people globally. SenGupta's current research addresses critical issues related to the water-energy nexus and strategies to mitigate the adverse impacts of climate change. He has received numerous awards for his contributions, including the International Ion Exchange Award and the Grainger Challenge Silver Award. As a professor emeritus, he has taught various courses in environmental engineering and has been instrumental in developing degree programs in this field at Lehigh University.
