Dr. Tanapon Phenrat is an assistant professor and a principal investigator of Research Unit for Integrated Natural Resources Remediation and Reclamation (IN3R), Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Naresuan University, Phitsanulok. Also, he serves as the Deputy Director of Center of Excellent for Sustainability of Health, Environment, and Industry (SHEI), Faculty of Engineering, Naresuan University. He has 13-year experience in conducting research and professional work in the field of remediation of contaminated sites. He has published 36 peer-reviewed research articles in international journals including several highly-cited research articles in nanoscale zerovalent iron applications. He is also a pioneer in remedial engineering in Thailand and has worked collaboratively as a consultant for affected communities, government agencies, and potentially responsible contaminated site owners. He investigated more than 40 contaminated sites and successfully remediated 6contaminated sites using soil vapor extraction, in-well treatment with chemical oxidation, colloidal carbon injection, colloidal iron oxide injection, magnetic-assisted soil washing with zerovalent iron, and phytoremediation. Dr. Phenrat was awarded with 15 research awards (6 international awards) in the field of environmental remediation.
