Dr. Kumar Presenting Paper at ASCE-EWRI
India 2010 - 3rd International Perspective on Current & Future State of Water Resources & the Environment
January 5-7, 2010, Chennai, India.

Dr. Nedunuri presented a paper on modeling of lead transport in phosphorus amended soils. Metal contamination of ground water is still a major environmental concern even though mining for metals has been abandoned in several places across the world. The leaching of lead to groundwater from the vadose zone was modeled as part of the study. The overall modeling involved solving multi-component transport equations for lead with the background ions in soil pore water when multiple solid phases of lead and phosphorus are either precipitating or dissolving. The choice of convergence algorithms to solve the resulting PDE, non-linear AE systems based on soil chemistry was found to be critical in solving these problems, particularly so when stability issues are confronted due to the presence of multiple solid phases controlling the composition of the pore water.

"Recycling Program Starts" by Bryan Smith
CSUWRC
Students assessed stream quality in situ by measuring parameters such as temperature, flow, dissolved oxygen, pH and conductivity. They also collected samples from the stream both upstream and downstream of the dam. The samples were analyzed in the laboratory for total carbonate, nitrite/nitrate and phosphate. The measurements were later compared with predictions using the theory of chemical equilibrium.

Environmental Engineers of the Future
Supporting students obtaining a Masters Degree in Environmental Engineering
http://www.engineeringmastersfunding.org/EMastersFunding/
Take advantage of a great opportunity for students in environmental engineering. Designed to encourage students to obtain a Masters Degree, and to increase the number of talented professionals with advanced degrees practicing in the United States, this program offers funding for students attending one of many outstanding Environmental Engineering programs across the nation, in return for a 2-year employment commitment.
Sponsored by premiere public agencies and private engineering firms, the program prepares students to practice in the municipal water, wastewater, and solid waste management fields. Since the start of the program in 2005, over $900,000 has been provided to students obtaining a Masters Degree in Environmental Engineering.

The International Center for Water Resources Management at Central State University was formally created by the State of Ohio by H. B. 171 in 1987. The law stipulated that the Center shall develop methods to ..”improve the management of water resources of Ohio and emerging nations” (Ohio Revised Code: 1987 Legislation, Page 504). This mission is directly linked to that of the University in offering programs with multi-cultural and global perspectives with particular emphasis on African and African American cultures; collaborating with other educational institutions, business organizations and government agencies to enrich learning experiences and educational opportunities for students; and in providing quality educational programs in the scientific technical fields where minorities have been traditionally underrepresented.
THE ACADEMIC PROGRAMS AT THE CENTER
The Center now contains four academic programs that are interrelated – environmental engineering (ENE), water resources management (WRM), geology (GEL) and geography (GEO). Students obtain baccalaureate degrees in these fields. It is now possible also to obtain a minor in water resources management. With these programs of study, the Center is the focal point for environmental related studies at Central State University. The Center offers an interdisciplinary minor in environmental science in cooperation with the Department of Natural Sciences (NSC).
Internally, the ICWRM is under Dean of the College of Business and Industry and works closely with the Manufacturing Engineering (MFE) and the Department of Natural Sciences (NSC) in research, course offerings and in the general development of the University. The program offerings at the ICWRM take advantage of related curricular strengths available at Central State. Central State University bears the distinction of offering the first ever undergraduate program in interdisciplinary water resources management in the United States. It is also the only Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) Institution to have an undergraduate program in water resources management.
