Webinar cycle in Hydrogeology and Geochemistry: Reversible biotransformation pathway of Diclofenac in groundwater
A growing emphasis is nowadays given to xenobiotic chemicals and Pharmaceuticals, such asantibiotics and analgesics. Amongst these, Diclofenac poses major concerns due to its persistent nature and nowadays frequent detection in groundwater. Despite some evidence of...
Characterization of calcite dissolution rate from in-situ and real-time AFM imaging in a statistical framework
The topic of the seminar is the stochastic characterization of micro-scale calcite dissolution rate maps, obtained by means of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) imaging of crystal topography. In particular, we will discuss the principal methods to evaluate the dissolution...
