Facilitator :

Mickael Le Bechec (mickael.lebechec @ univ-pau.fr)

Objective:

Spectroscopy, Treatment and Metrology of Water and Air Pollutants

Research actions :

  • Characterization and dynamics of volatile pollutants
  • Reactivity and remediation of gaseous and aqueous phase pollutants
  • photo-induced oxidative processes
  • Development of pilots and industrial processes

Available techniques :

  • Characterization of the spectral absorbance (UV - visible - near infrared) of solid materials in suspension or in solution (spectrophotometers, spectrofluorometers).
  • Identification and analysis of VOCs in the gas phase (ATD-GC-MS, SIFT-MS, GC)
  • Analysis of organic compounds and measurements of reactive species in aqueous phase (HPLC UV Fluo)
  • Gaseous or liquid phase photoreactors, gas generation and gas mixing
  • Continuous light sources and their characterization (radiometer, spectroradiometers)
