Carmen Teodosiu is Professor Emeritus at \u201cGheorghe Asachi\u201d Technical University of Ia\u0219i (TUIASI) and Director of CERSUS. Her career combines environmental engineering research, academic leadership and collaboration with industry, with a particular focus on sustainable water management, advanced wastewater treatment and resource recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her research connects the development and optimisation of environmental technologies with the assessment of their sustainability. Through interdisciplinary research and international cooperation, she advances solutions for water reuse, waste valorisation and pollution prevention, supporting the transition towards a circular economy and circular bioeconomy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prof. Teodosiu leads CERSUS in bringing together research teams working on water management, materials and waste valorisation, and the circular bioeconomy. As Director of the CERSUS Centre of Excellence, she provides scientific leadership and oversees the coordination of its eight partner institutions. She guides the shared research agenda, supports collaboration across the project\u2019s work packages, and ensures that their results contribute to the Centre\u2019s goals. Her role also includes mentoring young researchers and strengthening links between the consortium\u2019s research and its practical applications.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Research and academic background<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

She graduated in Chemical Engineering from the Polytechnic Institute of Ia\u0219i, now TUIASI, in 1981. She subsequently completed a postgraduate programme in Environmental Science and Technology in 1995 and a Master of Science in the same field in 1996, both with distinction, at the International Institute for Hydraulics and Environmental Engineering, now IHE Delft Institute for Water Education, the Netherlands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1998, she obtained her PhD in Chemistry at TUIASI, with a thesis on the optimisation of advanced wastewater treatment for the removal of non-biodegradable organic pollutants and suspended solids. She became a Professor in 2002 and received the title of Professor Emeritus in 2022. She has supervised doctoral research in Chemical Engineering since 2005 and Environmental Engineering since 2009.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her research brings together environmental engineering, water treatment and sustainability assessment. She has authored or co-authored 222 articles, including 128 papers in international ISI-ranked journals, and has contributed to 38 books and book chapters. Her work has received more than 5300 citations in Scopus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her principal research areas include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
