Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Samuel D. Hodges' research investigates the chemical processes related to environmental monitoring and water quality. His work has focused on understanding the decomposition products of inorganic chloramines, such as the chloronitramide anion. Hodges has also studied diffusion models, specifically non-steady-state Fickian diffusion models, to reduce uncertainty in measurements obtained from diffusive gradients in thin-films passive samplers. This research extends to the quantitation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) using these passive samplers, aiming to capture time-weighted average concentrations for compliance purposes. His publications include work on anion chemistry, diffusion in gels, and PFAS analysis in water. Hodges has collaborated with researchers Julian L. Fairey, Michael B. Howland, Margaret K. Bozarth, and Duong Duc Thien, all from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
