Analysis of degradation of the micropollutant amoxicillin by photolysis and evaluation of the degradation products

(Corresponding) Hoehne L., Vettorello G., Ethur E., Kuhn D., Freitas E., Steffens C.
Topic: 
Emerging pollutants
Emerging micro pollutants are substances that have recently been identified in environmental matrices, of which information on environmental permanence and toxicity is still scarce. Because of their chemical structure, antibiotics are more stable and require more complex processes for degradation...Read more

"Reliable in-Situ Sensing of Water Quality Parameters Using Low Cost Autonomous Analysers - Opportunities and Challenges"

Donohoe A., Hazel C., McCluskey P., McCaul M., (Corresponding) Diamond D.
Topic: 
Process understanding through innovative sensors and remote sensing
The delivery of platforms that can provide access to good quality analytical information on the chemical/biological status of water at an acceptable cost remains a formidable challenge, despite considerable efforts from the research community over many years. The relatively high cost of autonomous...Read more
