Professor Daniel W. Smith has established himself as one of Canada’s preeminent environmental engineers and an internationally acknowledged water and wastewater treatment, and cold regions researcher. Dr. Smith’s dedicated research and resulting practical applications for water related issues have proven invaluable both at home and abroad. This has occurred as governments and the general public increasingly seek assurances regarding the safety and reliability of water supplies. Dr. Smith’s discoveries and their applications have extensive implications for the natural environment, urban infrastructure and sustainability of key resource industries. In addition, his published findings related to cold regions are still widely referenced information sources. Professor Smith has received numerous honours and has disseminated his important findings through more than 300 publications and the guidance of approximately 142 graduate students (35 Ph.D.). In 2013 he was elected an Officer of the Order of Canada.
