RESERACH LINES
- Study of methodologies for the analysis of persistent organic pollutants (dioxins and furans, PCBs, flame retardants, PFCs, DP, etc.) in environmental and food matrices.
- Degradation and elimination of persistent organic pollutants.
- Presence and evolution of persistent organic pollutants in ambient air.
MEMBER OF:
School of Engineering
Engineering and Simulation of Environmental Processes Group
Its activity focuses on environmental engineering and molecular and process simulation to respond to current societal challenges: climate change, water scarcity, and population growth.
MANAGER:
Environmental Laboratory
Laboratory specialised in the analysis of dioxins and other persistent organic pollutants in environmental matrices (atmospheric emissions and immissions, water, ash, waste, soil, etc.) as well as in products for human and animal food.
Accredited by ENAC according to UNE EN ISO 17025.

Doctoral thesis
Predicting Dioxin and Furan Emissions
15/06/2023
Dr Damià Palmer recently defended his doctoral thesis at IQS, in which he built a mathematical model capable of predicting dioxin and furan emissions in urban waste incineration processes, making it possible to control the emissions problems associated with these processes.
