Current activities

Anne Kamau is currently a PhD student in Water Infrastructure and Resilience at Cranfield University School of Water, Energy and Environment.

Anne's research will look into the formation of nitrogenous disinfection by-products from organic compounds prevalent in different surface water sources during drinking water treatment. She will also investigate the impact of various treatment processes on the formation of the nitrogenous disinfection by-products. The findings will be used to contribute to the current knowledge of the mechanisms of their formation and provide opportunities for increased resilience in water quality management.
