Happy to share our new publication from the #ClayHOC project: #Adsorption of the #hydrophobic organic pollutant #hexachlorobenzene to phyllosilicate #minerals in ESPR
https://doi.org/10.1007/s11356-022-24818-4
Results show relevant #adsorption of #HCB to natural #ClayMinerals. Cation-modification revealed dependence on type, radius, #hydration enthalpy of exchangeable #cations
Results support relevance of minerals for #EnvironmentalFate of #PersistentOrganicPollutants #POP in #soils #sediments

Btw, some info on the paper #Hydrodechlorination of #hexachlorobenzene in a miniaturized nano-Pd(0) reaction system combined with the simultaneous extraction of all #dechlorination products
We studied the elimination of #HCB and all 11 possible intermediate products by #dehalogenation with nanosized #palladium #catalyst

My current work is on "#ClayMinerals as sorbents for #HydrophobicOrganicChemicals - #ClayHOC" at #JLUgiessen together with my colleagues Martin Gerzabek, Daniel Tunega, and Peter Grancic from #BOKU Vienna.
Funding by #DFG and #FWF is highly acknowledged.

I am a soil and environmental scientist with an interdisciplinary focus on environmental pollutant fate.
Research focus: #adsorption processes, #bioavailability #bioaccumulation, and catalytic elimination processes of anthropogenic #contaminants.
Special interest in miniaturization of experimental approaches and analytical methods, especially solid-phase microextraction #SPME
