Fab is investigating microbial ecosystems in biological processes for nutrients removal and resource recovery during water and wastewater treatment, with a focus on sustainability. 

His research draws from an interdisciplinary skillset including reactor operation, modelling, metagenome assembled-genomes and molecular biology tools.  He aims to contribute to the innovation of  new  technologies that  will  facilitate  (1) the  development  of sustainable  treatment  processes  and (2) environmental systems that protect public health.
