About Me
I hold a tenure position as Associate Professor at IEA. I obtained my PhD in Industrial Automation (at IEA) in May 1996 after defending my thesis entitled "Modelling Aspects of Wastewater Treatment Processes". My professional fields of interest are automation and control in general, and mathematical modelling, simulation, benchmarking and control applied to urban water and wastewater systems and wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) in particular. Lately, my research has been focussing on benchmarking of WWT plants (chairman of the IWA Task Group on Benchmarking), modelling of anaerobic digestion processes, energy efficiency and the water/energy nexus. Since 2010 I am also working within the national research cluster VA-kluster (water and wastewater cluster) Malardalen coordinated by prof. Bengt Carlsson at Uppsala University. As of January 1 2014, I am the deputy head of the newly formed department BME (IEA being one of three divisions). I am the national coordinator for EU COST Action Water_2020 and the national project leader for EU ITN project SANITAS since 2013. Moreover, I am an associate editor for the scientific journal Water Research since October 2009 and an IWA Fellow since 2012. Finally, I am chairing (together with prof. Krist V. Gernaey, DTU) the organisation committee for the upcoming IWA Watermatex2019 conference in Lund/Copenhagen.
