Sustainable remediation, emerging contaminants and prevention towards zero pollution

a.  Low carbon emitting technologies for historical large-scale pollutions (e.g. landfills, mine wastes) using sustainable resources and energy

b.  Novel technologies to treat emerging contaminants, such as chlorinated solvents, halogenated compounds, antibiotics and antimicrobial resistance, Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS), pesticides, etc.

c.  Management and policies for prevention of emissions of persistent, emerging and other contaminants to soil and water.
