Microplastics – Analytics
Speaker
Fan Liu
In this interactive online seminar series, we take a closer look at the wicked problem of plastic pollution and microplastics. Our speakers are experts in plastic pollution and have diverse backgrounds in academia, policy making, civil society and beyond. They provide unique perspectives on the causes and impacts of the problem and discuss solutions.
About the speaker:
Fan Liu is a Postdoc at Aalborg University, Denmark. Her research focuses on the occurrence and fate of microplastic pollution in urban water environments. Currently, Fan is working on the improvement of extraction and analytical methods for microplastics in complex matrixes (e.g. sediments) applying µFTIR imaging, aiming to provide a profound method to address and quantify the source, fate, and mitigation of microplastics in the freshwater environment.
