15th EuCheMS International Conference on Chemistry and the Environment – ICCE 2015
Summary
This is a conference proceedings summary for the 2015 EuCheMS International Conference on Chemistry and the Environment, covering topics including microplastics, emerging contaminants, water quality, and air pollution chemistry. It is a conference report rather than original research.
TROPOS, Germany: 'Atmospheric chemistry: Recent findings in gas phase, aerosol and multiphase studies' During three weekdays of plenary and parallel sessions, 116 lectures and 220 posters were presented.The sessions were introduced by 15 invited speakers covering the following themes: -Emerging contaminants -Analytical methods for trace analysis -Water quality, wastewater treatment and reuse, drinking water -Microplastics -Air pollution chemistry -Soils and bound residues -Multimedia partitioning, transport and modelling -Isotope techniques and applications -Predicting compound properties and effects -Biological effects of chemicals -Human exposure and toxicity -Chemical risk and regulatory issues -Metals, metalloids and elemental speciation -Nanomaterials: from characterization to risk assessment -Tropospheric multiphase and heterogeneous chemistry -Biodegradation of chemicals in natural and man-made ecosystems Nine companies presented their recent developments and services in the field of environmental and analytical chemistry.The participants' responses were very positive.ICCE 2015 was considered a great success, enabling the exchange of a lot of very valuable information through a high-level scientific programme and many fruitful discussions that helped to significantly enlarge scientific and personal networks.
