Environmental Chemistry is the study of sources, fate and impact of anthropogenic chemicals (e.g. pesticides, PFAS) or materials (e.g. micro- and nanoplastics) in the environment.
We are particularly interested in understanding diverse sources, transport and transformation pathways of legacy and emerging contaminants in agricultural, surface water and atmospheric systems using a combination of analytical, experimental and computational tools. Our research informs regulatory bodies and supports the transition towards increased circularity and the development of safe and sustainable-by design chemicals and products in line with the EU's Green Deal ambitions.
