Thermal degradation of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA)

(Corresponding) Stockenhuber S., Weber N., Dixon L., Lucas J., Grimison C., Bennett M., Stockenhuber M., Mackie J., Kennedy E.

Topic:

Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation

Per - and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of environmental contaminants, that are dispersed throughout the world. A number of areas have been affected by their persistence and biomagnification. PFAS remediation of contaminated material requires extensive knowledge of the species...Read more

Thermal Decomposition of Chlorpyrifos - an Experimental Investigation

(Corresponding) Weber N., Stockenhuber S., Dixon L., Lucas J., Grimison C., Stockenhuber M., Mackie J., Kennedy E., Benhelal E.

Topic:

Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation

Organophosphate compounds are a group of chemicals that are commonly used in pest control. One widely used organophosphate is chlorpyrifos (CPF), which has been associated with acetylcholinesterase inhibition (AChE), an acute neurotoxin. Further, under thermal decomposition conditions, such as...Read more

Reductive Debromination of 1,2-dibromoethane and tribromoethylene by a Shrimp-Shell Biochar and Green Rust Composite

(Corresponding) Lindhardt J., Holm P., Lu C., Hansen H.

Topic:

Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation

Simple brominated ethanes and ethylenes like 1,2-dibromoethane (DBA) and tribromoethylene (TrBE) are widespread, toxic contaminants and able to persist in soil and groundwater. Some of these compounds are used as intermediates in the production of resins and as wood preservatives. Previous uses...Read more
