Profile

My research protects public health and well-being by ensuring the quantity and quality of our drinking water and the resilience and sustainability of our water supply.

Professor Joby Boxall


Professor Joby Boxall is Chair of Water Infrastructure Engineering.

He is a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, and of the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management.

He trained as a civil engineer, specialising in hydraulics. His PhD was in mixing and transport of pollutants in natural river channels.

Joby’s research is concerned with urban water (with a focus on water supply, distribution pipe networks in particular), and helps to protect public health and well-being through ensuring the quantity and quality of that supply. His research is challenge driven and involves close collaboration and trusted partnerships across the water sector.

He takes a multidisciplinary approach to ensuring the provision of sustainable water services in the face of global grand challenges such as population growth and increasing density, climate change and ageing infrastructure. Joby’s research focuses on the operation and management of water distribution systems, ranging from leakage, to water quality and asset management.

His core expertise is in hydraulic engineering, but he is known for integration and application of other disciplines to address major challenges. His interdisciplinary work ranges from applied microbiology to computer to social science. His leadership of the EPSRC Water Grand Challenges consortium is a flagship example of this.

Close up of Twenty65

His long-running Prediction of Discolouration in Distribution Systems research is a leading example of world leading research delivering real world impact and change. It has and continues to help water companies and their supply chain to deliver substantial service improvements in the supply of safe and wholesome drinking water through ageing pipe infrastructure, while delivering multi-million-pound efficiency savings.

He looks at the conditions inside our water pipes, including the biofilms in our water systems to ensure they don’t harbour harmful bacteria. He also investigates contaminant ingress, where dangerous contaminants can enter pipes through leaks and be transported through the pipe network.

Water contamination research

Joby’s research aims to understand our hydraulics systems’ behaviour by modelling networks and using data, modelling and AI to better understand and predict where failures might occur and to inform proactive decision making.

His research on leakage ranges from fundamental understanding of fluid structure ground iterations to novel artificial intelligence based software for leak detection that has been commercialised.

Joby has taught a range of modules, from specialist masters levels modules on modelling water distribution systems, to core undergraduate modules on open channel flow and principles of hydraulics. He pioneered innovative ‘self-teach’ open-channel flow laboratory classes.

Joby has held a number of important roles in the Department including being Head of Department from 2017 until 2021. He was also Departmental Director of Research from 2009 to 2014, where he led the 2014 Research Excellence Framework submission.
