Research Overview
Dr. Malley has over twenty years experience in the environmental engineering field including physical and chemical treatment of drinking water, domestic and industrial wastewater and hazardous and solid wastes. Both Dr. Malley's MS and Ph.D. research were in the area of physical/chemical treatment of drinking water. Dr. Malley is a national and international advisor to water utilities in the areas of coagulation, dissolved air flotation, and disinfection using UV irradiation, chlorine, chloramines, chlorine dioxide or ozone.
Dr. Malley has directed numerous pilot plant studies on disinfection of waters to minimize disinfection by-products (DBPs) and control protozoan (Giardia and Cryptosporidium) cysts, viruses, Legionella and other bacteria. Since 1992, Dr. Malley has received about $5.3 million dollars in research funding to study and optimize alternative disinfection technologies for drinking water that minimize disinfection by-products and optimize inactivation of cysts and viruses. Dr. Malley is a technical advisor on disinfection processes to the USEPA, AWWA, AWWARF (ten projects), WERF, EPRI and NSF International.
In April 1999, Dr. Malley was elected Chairman of the Steering Committee for the creation of the International Ultraviolet Association (IUVA) and became the founding President of IUVA at the AWWA Conference in Chicago, IL, June 1999. During his two year term, the IUVA has grown from twenty to three hundred members representing fifteen countries.
Dr. Malley has been the invited key note speaker at Enviro 2000, April 2000 in Sydney, Australia, WasserBerlin - Oxidant Sessions, October 2000 in Berlin, Germany and will provide keynote addresses for the IWA-UK Section Conference in June 2001 Leeds, United Kingdom and the First IUVA Congress in June 2001 in Washington, D.C.
