Lineas de investigación

El objetivo general de mis investigaciones hasta la fecha ha sido estudiar la dinámica de contaminantes orgánicos en el medio para generar información útil en el desarrollo de estrategias efectivas, ambientalmente sostenibles y de bajo coste para prevenir y proteger el suelo y agua frente a la contaminación puntual y difusa originada por contaminantes orgánicos, especialmente plaguicidas.

Los estudios específicos realizados se enmarcan dentro de las siguientes líneas de investigación:

• Estudio de los procesos físicos, químicos y biológicos que controlan el destino, transporte y los riesgos ambientales de contaminantes orgánicos clásicos y emergentes incluyendo, plaguicidas, PCBs, DDT, PBDEs, PAHs y productos farmacéuticos y de cuidado personal.
• Biodisponibilidad de contaminantes orgánicos, análisis biomiméticos mediante el uso de herramientas químicas aplicadas al campo de la ecotoxicología.
• Monitoreo de contaminantes orgánicos ambientales. Esta línea de investigación engloba el desarrollo de métodos analíticos para el análisis de contaminantes orgánicos a niveles traza en distintas matrices ambientales y la elaboración de mapas de riesgo en base a unidades toxicológicas.

Desarrollo y evaluación de estrategias sostenibles de prevención y biorremediación para la protección del suelo y agua frente a contaminantes orgánicos favoreciendo el reciclaje y la valorización de residuos orgánicos procedentes de la agroindustria.
