About
Wael Elamin is an analytical and environmental chemist whose research sits at the intersection of green chemistry, automation, and wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE). His work focuses on developing innovative, sustainable, and high-throughput analytical methods for detecting a broad spectrum of environmental contaminants — including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), illicit drugs, pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs), and steroid hormones — in water and wastewater matrices. Elamin's most recognized contribution is the development of the Small Volume Ethyl Acetate Liquid-Liquid Extraction (SVEA-LLE) method, coupled with Atmospheric Pressure Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry, which has garnered 9 citations since its 2024 publication. More recently, he has pioneered the integration of robotic automation — particularly the Biomek i7 Workstation — into WBE workflows, enabling simultaneous analysis of up to 123 illicit drugs, 69 PPCPs, and 27 steroids with improved sustainability and practicality. His methods are consistently evaluated for eco-friendliness and practicality, reflecting a commitment to greener science. Collectively, his growing citation record signals rising influence in environmental monitoring, offering the research community faster, cleaner, and more scalable tools for public health surveillance through wastewater analysis.
