Nicholas Gray (PhD, ScD, C.Biol, FIBiol, FLS, DWM, FTD) is a founding member of the Environmental Sciences Unit (1979), Ireland’s first center for postgraduate research and training in environmental science and technology. Renamed the Centre for the Environment in 1998, it acts as a research hub within Trinity College, University of Dublin, and hosts a diverse team of postgraduate and postdoctoral researchers. The Centre has been pivotal in developing environmental policy and management in Ireland, including the establishment of the Environmental Protection Agency. Gray is an internationally known environmental engineer who has worked in water pollution and both water and wastewater treatment for over thirty years. He has written a number of books, most recently Water Technology (Elsevier, 2010), Drinking Water Quality(Cambridge University Press, 2008), Biology of Wastewater Treatment (Imperial College Press, 2005), and over 150 research papers. Apart from wastewater treatment process design and operation, he has been carrying out research for the past two decades on sustainability, and more recently on carbon-footprint analysis.
