11. Innovative treatment technologies for PFAS-contaminated water - Utilizing foam partitioning and exploring electrochemical oxidation
Sammanfattning : The presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the aquatic environment has become a global cause for concern. PFAS are persistent anthropogenic chemicals, and certain PFAS are known to be mobile, bioaccumulative and toxic. LÄS MER
12. Halogenated organic matter in precipitation
Sammanfattning : Deposition in rain and snow plays a crucial role in the regional and global redistribution of a great variety of substances. This thesis is devoted to chemical characterisation and identification of the halogenated organic compounds that are most widespread in rain and snow. LÄS MER
13. Improved analytical methods for perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) and their precursors – a focus on human dietary exposure
Sammanfattning : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances are a large group of global environmental contaminants. They can be divided into two sub-groups, 1) perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) and 2) so called precursors, i.e. compounds that can potentially be transformed to form PFAAs. LÄS MER
14. Long-term changes of mercury, lead and persistent organic pollutants in arctic environments
Sammanfattning : The Arctic represents a huge area with poor infrastructure contributing to limited possibilities to establish monitoring and research programs. From the investigations that have been performed we know that the arctic environment is affected by anthropogenic emissions from lower latitudes, but knowledge about underlying transport processes, the arctic pollution extent and the rates of changes are limited.

15. Changes in ocean geochemistry across the K-Pg boundary interval
Sammanfattning : The Cretaceous - Paleogene boundary (K-Pg, 66 Ma) was a time interval with dramatic changes in the Earth’s climate and the ocean environment. It was characterized by severe disruptions of marine biogeochemical cycles due to a meteorite impact during a time of active volcanism. LÄS MER
