Aims & Scope

The journal «Micropollutants and Emerging Contaminants» will focus on the study, detection, behavior, and impact of micropollutants and emerging contaminants on the environment and human health.

Its scope includes:

  • Sources and types of micropollutants, such as pharmaceuticals, personal care products, microplastics, pesticides, and industrial chemicals.
  • Transport, transformation, and degradation mechanisms in water, soil, air, and biological systems.
  • Innovative detection and quantification methods, including advanced analytical techniques and sensor technologies.
  • Treatment and removal technologies, such as advanced oxidation processes, membrane filtration, and bioremediation.
  • Environmental and toxicological risk assessment of contaminants and their by-products.
  • Regulatory and policy developments for pollution control and sustainable management.

 

The journal aims to promote interdisciplinary research and support science-based decision-making for a cleaner and safer environment.
