Dr. David Freedman has been featured in Chemical & Engineering News for his work exploring how microbial communities adapt and even help clean up heavily contaminated environments. Here is a snip of what the article presents: “Dehalococcoides species “use chlorinated solvents as their electron acceptor, the same way that you and I use oxygen,” says David Freedman, […]

Muzan Williams Ijeoma Muzan Williams Ijeoma is a rising star in Environmental Engineering, specializing in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Techno-Economic Evaluation of Sustainable Building Materials. He is considered one of the top 21 Professionals influencing LCA landscapes. Currently pursuing a PhD at Clemson University, his research focuses on comparing timber, steel, and concrete structures to […]

Lakes and ponds aren’t just scenic—they’re dynamic ecosystems. A new study reveals that rising temperatures are extending summer stratification, leading to oxygen loss in deep waters. This triggers the release of elements like arsenic, iron, and manganese from sediments—sometimes increasing levels by up to 5,000x. EEES researchers found these changes in a South Carolina reservoir once used for […]

Students for Stewardship was founded by Biosystems Engineering students Andrew Evans and Paige Farral to unite students from all backgrounds around a shared mission of ecological restoration, sustainable design, and hands-on land stewardship. Their primary project is the Hunnicutt Food Forest (HFF), a growing biodiversity park near Kite Hill on Clemson University’s campus. The group […]
