About me
Welcome to my webpage. I'm Hsiang-Yang (Gary) Shyu, a Ph.D. candidate under the guidance of Dr. Daniel Yeh in the Membrane Biotechnology Lab at the University of South Florida's Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering.
Our research is at the forefront of developing advanced wastewater treatment technologies for non-sewered sanitation. I play a key role in the NEWgenerator™ project, an innovative onsite wastewater treatment system that not only treats but repurposes wastewater into valuable resources like water, nutrients, and energy.
My research includes enhancing membrane-based separation technologies, creating advanced adsorbents for nutrient recycling, and analyzing data from our South Africa field test to develop models optimizing water, nutrient, and energy cycles. Additionally, I've integrated machine learning to improve treatment efficiency, developing soft sensors for real-time water quality monitoring.
Before my Ph.D., I earned a Master’s in Environmental Engineering from USF, focusing on flotation microalgae bioreactors for aquaponics and wastewater treatment.
