Prior to his career at RTI, Dr. Kondash studied Earth and Ocean Science at Duke University where he ran complex chemical analyses to measure trace metals, common anions and cations, stable isotope ratios, and radionuclides. He applied this analytical expertise to topics including oil and gas production, powerplant water use, environmental contamination, and groundwater quality to investigate how water can be efficiently reused, treated, and managed. AJ has compiled a rich portfolio of high impact publications, many of which explain complex scientific concepts in a way the general public can understand. His 2015 study, Water footprint of hydraulic fracturing, was published in Environmental Science and Technology Letters, and was selected as one of the most read articles for the journal in 2017.
