Using monk seal faeces as a non-invasive technique to monitor the incidence of microdebris

(Corresponding) Hernandez-Milian G., Tsangaris C., Anestis A., Bundone L., Panou A.
Topic: 
Biodibersity conservation
required under the EU Marine Strategy Framework Directive to prevent any harm on marine ecosystems and their biota. Sampling to evaluate effects of marine litter, including microdebris, in top predators is difficult. Usually, microdebris is examined in the gastro-intestinal tract of stranded dead...Read more

Photoluminescence spectroscopy on commercially available plastic products

(Corresponding) Konde S., Brackmann S., Hüppe F., Koch M.
Topic: 
Case studies of macro- and microplastics pollution in coastal waters and rivers
Commercially available plastic products are produced for specific applications. They represent polymeric compounds, i.e. base materials mixed with various types of additives such as pigments. The identification of the plastic type is the key goal in microplastics analysis but also the key process...Read more

Determination of atmospheric amines in boreal forest using unmanned aerial drone with an integrated miniaturized air sampling system

Pusfitasari E., Ruiz-Jimenez J., Heiskanen I., Jussila M., Hartonen K., (Corresponding) Riekkola M.
Topic: 
Atmospheric chemistry and physics
Amines are ubiquitous in the atmosphere and their presence is considered important especially due to their hazard to human health and their contribution to new particle formation that can affect climate change. In this study, tailor-made mesoporous functionalized silica sorbents were used in in-...Read more

Retention potential of contaminants by (nano)magnetite in batch and microfluidic systems

(Corresponding) Papaslioti E., Tabuteau H., Vantelon D., Le Bouteiller P., Greneche J., Fernández Martínez A., Charlet L.
Topic: 
Water and wastewater treatment and reuse
(Nano)magnetite (Fe3O4) has been suggested to be a significant reductant for contaminants due to its great adsorption capacity and ability to retain metals on its high specific surface. Its use has become an emerging technology for the treatment of contaminated land and water with a great potential...Read more
