My husband is an "environmental engineer". He designs processes to clean up contaminated groundwater.

Ingeniero ambiental sounds like it to me. I work with an environmental agency in the Caribbean. Sounds like your husband is a good guy to know.

Perhaps... "ingeniero ambiental" ... ? The "environment" is el medio ambiente.
