Dr. Quanrud joined The University of Arizona''s Office of Arid Lands Studies in 2002. Born in Rochester, Minnesota, he earned his B.S. in geology from Iowa State University and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in hydrology from the University of Arizona in 1995 and 2000, respectively.
His research includes projects in the areas of water reclamation and water conservation. Current projects are investigating presence and fate of emerging contaminants, including endocrine disrupting compounds, in wastewater and reclaimed water during treatment in natural and engineered systems. The presence and fate of emerging contaminants in biosolids during land application is an expanding area of research. He was previously involved in studies on the use of constructed wetlands for the treatment of wastewater and the removal of contaminants from wastewater in multi-species constructed ecosystems. A research program testing evapotranspiration-based irrigation control technology is underway at parks in Pima County.
