Project 2-3-01-05/06: Soil washing biosorption technology for the remediation of POPs

Project Leader: Dr Albert Juhasz

Duration of Project: TBC

Project Summary

This project aims to determine the feasibility of combining cosolvent soil washing and fungal biosorption as a potential remediation strategy for the clean up of POP-contaminated soil. Specifically, the project seeks to address sites contaminated with DDT and high molecular weight polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).
