Kimberly A. Gray

Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering

Professor Gray's work is motivated by commitment to protecting and improving the environment, and a drive to solve interesting problems in science and engineering. She joined the faculty of Northwestern University in fall of 1995, where she teaches courses in environmental science and engineering, and conducts research in a number of environmentally relevant areas, including photocatalysis and contaminant transfer.

Research in the Gray lab can be roughly divided between two groups. The Photocatalysis Group studies the synthesis of TiO2 and its application to environmental systems. Current work in this group utilizes solution-gelation chemistry and physical vapor deposition techniques to create novel catalysts. These catalysts are tested in both gaseous and liquid systems. The Natural and Engineered Systems Group has encompassed a wide variety of research projects, from rivers to wetlands to urban gardens. Currently, research in this group is focused on contaminant transfer in food webs and the effects of different types of residential planning on greenhouse gas emissions.
