About

Daniel Gingerich earned his PhD in Engineering and Public Policy from Carnegie Mellon University in 2017. His PhD work involved developing methods to integrate life cycle air emissions from chemical manufacturing and energy generation and into regulatory decision making for water and wastewater policies. His thesis also examined ways to reduce air emissions through the use of waste heat driven water treatment technologies. After his PhD, Gingerich was an Oak Ridge Institute for Science Education Postdoctoral Fellow with the National Energy Technology Laboratory and a visiting postdoc at Carnegie Mellon and Stanford University. He is currently an Assistant Professor at The Ohio State University, where he has appointments in the Department of Civil, Environmental and Geodetic Engineering and the Department of Integrated Systems Engineering and is a Core Faculty member of the Sustainability Institute.
