AboutAbout the lab
Exploring sustainability through water and the environment.
Fujii Lab explores what a sustainable society should look like, through the lens of water and the environment.
The lab conducts research in environmental engineering, including watershed environmental conservation, biogeochemical cycling, and water use and treatment.
It combines this with challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and sustainable development, and carries out research that crosses disciplinary boundaries.
In addition to experiments, the lab uses theoretical calculations such as AI, data science, and quantum chemistry.
Key terms
- Biogeochemical cycling
- The flow of substances such as carbon, nitrogen, and iron as they move through nature via water and living organisms
- Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)
- A collective name for fluorine-containing compounds that resist breakdown and persist in the environment
- Anthropocene
- A term for the present era, in which human activity has greatly changed the Earth's environment

ResearchResearch themes
In addition to environmental engineering research on watershed environmental conservation, biogeochemical cycling, and water use and treatment, the lab conducts interdisciplinary research that incorporates climate change, biodiversity loss, the globalization of society, and sustainable development. In addition to experiments, the lab also uses AI, data science, and theoretical calculations.
*Illustrative imageWater environment assessment technologies
Beyond organic pollution and eutrophication, the extent of contamination by trace organic substances, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), and microplastics has also become clear in recent years. The lab develops new technologies for assessing water quality and ecosystem health, and proposes watershed land use that enables desirable cycles.
*Illustrative imageWater treatment technologies
Delivering safe drinking water and treating wastewater without burdening the environment are important social responsibilities of water infrastructure. The lab develops water treatment technologies with low environmental and energy burdens, with the aim of achieving sustainable water use in both developed and developing countries.
*Illustrative imageSustainability assessment
To address the challenge of the "transition to a sustainable society" that humanity faces in the Anthropocene, the lab pursues interdisciplinary research that integrates all fields. Its work includes assessing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on progress toward the SDGs.
