He teaches classes on Physical and Chemical Treatment Processes, Water Reuse, and Fundamentals and Applications of UV Processes in Environmental Systems. Dr. Linden’s research has focused on efficacy of alternative technologies in water treatment and water reuse such as UV irradiation for inactivation of microbial pathogens, and the use of advanced oxidation for the degradation of environmental pollutants. His current research is funded by the American Water Works Association Research Foundation (AWWARF), the WateReuse Foundation (WRF), the USDA, the NIEHS, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). He has guided over $5M in externally funded research and authored over 75 peer-reviewed publications.
