The 'Sustainable Environment' research group focuses on the dissemination and impact of metals and emerging pollutants (nanomaterials, pharmaceutical compounds, etc.) on the chronic degradation of soil and water in relation to their use, as well as than on the valorization (agricultural recycling, critical metals, etc.) and the treatment of waste and wastewater. Whatever the system studied (soil, water, biota, materials), we share a common goal of a multi-scale systemic approach to understanding bio-physico-chemical processes and reaction mechanisms controlling the emission, transfer, accumulation, treatment and impact of contaminants and organic matter in our Environment.
