Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Julian L. Fairey's research focuses on the chemical processes within drinking water distribution systems, particularly concerning disinfection byproducts and water quality. His work investigates the formation, decomposition, and quantification of various chemical species that impact water safety and treatment efficacy. Fairey has published on the reaction pathways of dichloramine decomposition, identifying the formation of reactive nitrogen species and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA). He has also explored the kinetics of chloramine reactions and the generation of disinfection byproducts such as chlorite, chlorate, perchlorate, and chloronitramide anion.
His research also extends to analytical methodologies for detecting and quantifying these substances. This includes work on mitigating interferences from natural organic matter when quantifying nitrite and developing methods for chloronitramide anion quantitation in tap water using ion chromatography. Fairey has received federal funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) for both equipment acquisition, including a high-resolution mass spectrometer, and for an I-Corps project focused on developing a fluorescence sensor for early detection of nitrification in drinking water. His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 13, with 34 total publications and 717 citations.
