Assessing Quality and Remedial Performance for Contaminated Sediments

Daniel Reible, Smith Chair of Environmental Health Engineering, University of Texas in Austin

Dr. Reible is the Bettie Margaret Smith Chair of Environmental Health Engineering in the Department of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering and the Director of the Center for Research in Water Resources at the University of Texas in Austin.  He received his MS and PhD in Chemical Engineering in 1979 and 1982, respectively, from the California Institute of Technology after a BS in Chemical Engineering in 1977 from Lamar University, Beaumont, TX.   He is a Board Certified Environmental Engineer, a Professional Engineer (LA) and in 2005 was elected to the National Academy of Engineering for the “development of widely used approaches for the management of contaminated sediments”.  He is a Fellow of the American Association of the Advancement of Science and the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE).  He received the L.K. Cecil Award from AIChE in 2001 and the Malcolm Pirnie Frontiers in Research Award from the Association of Environmental Engineering and Science Professors in 2011.  In 2012 he helped found and currently chairs the International Society of Water Solutions, a group within the AIChE focused on water management, particularly to meet industrial needs.  His research is focused on the fate and transport of contaminants in the environment, particularly the applications to the assessment and remediation of contaminated sediments and the sustainable management of water resources.
