Research interests

Dr. Peters works in the areas of environmental chemistry and geochemistry. Her work focuses on the environmental challenges of subsurface energy technologies such as geologic sequestration of carbon dioxide, geothermal energy production, and hydrofracking for shale gas extraction. She applies a range of approaches to solving these problems, including laboratory experiments for experimental investigation, imaging via X-ray spectroscopy and electron microscopy, and mathematical modeling for reactive transport simulations. Dr. Peters has a collaborative research style, working with colleagues at numerous other universities and national labs. Her research has been funded by the National Science Foundation, the Department of Energy, and the Environmental Protection Agency. Dr. Peters is the Editor-in-Chief of?Environmental Engineering Science, and is on the Advisory Board for?Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology?(Wiley Journals). She is a past President of the Association of Environmental Engineering and Science Professors.
