Goutam Banerjee are reflected and substantiated in several publications as many as 68 in international and regional journals as well as in conference seminar workshop proceedings. Research Activities After joining The UWISt.Augustine September2013 onward At The UWI Professor Banerjee is primarily engaged in post- graduate MSc and Diploma programmes in Environmental Engineering Water and Wastewater Services Management and Civil with Environmental Engineering as well as in undergradu- ate programmes BSc. in Civil and B Sc in Civil with Environmen- tal Engineering through teaching research design and labora- tory training. The research interest of Prof. Banerjee is mainly centred on cost-effective treatment of municipal and industrial wastes of various origins with emphasis on reuse and recycling water resources development and conservation. His current research interest include soil pollution in the fragile coastal environment of the Caribbean Region especially in Trinidad and Tobago. In undergraduate level research studytertiary treatment of secondary effluent from wastewater treatment plant WWTP has been attempted using combination of dual-media filtration and adsorption with the ultimate objective of cost-effective recycling and reuse. The study was fairly successful though remained incomplete due to time constraints. In other undergraduate research projects environmental assessment of oil refining activities in Trinidad toxicity-based tariffing of wastewater discharges using bioassay testslow-cost management of municipal landfill leachate and evaluation of ambitious flood control project activities of the Trinidad and Tobago Government were carried out. Such types of scientific studies are very important indeed for Caribbean Islands especially in a fairly industrialized island like Trinidad in order to insure proper governance for conservation and protection of the fragile coastal environment. At the Masters level considering the urgent need of cost- effective industrial wastewater management in Trinidad two real-life potential research studies have been embarked upon viz. 1 treatment of effluent from chemical process industries located at Point Lisas Industrial Estate 2 management of produced water generated profusely in oil refinery units of Trinidad.In the study of treatment of methanol-based industrial effluent physico-chemical processes have been attempted. Management issues are being looked into towards the environment-friendly operation of oil refineries. In the MPhil research programme the effectiveness of different coagulants primarily poly-electrolytes and coagulant aids are under study for the removal or reduction of fatsois and grease FOG from eatery effluents prior to their discharge into the public sewerage system. This study is seeking to recom- mend some suitable materials and viable methods for minimiz- ing the oil contamination problems facing the operation of the existing WWTPs in Trinidad and Tobago. The passion of Professor Banerjee for research work is reflected in the following recent publications all of which have contributed immensely to the scientific knowledge base across the world in addressing local and global challenges relating to environmental conservation and water resources development protection and management. 67
