The latest issue of the Boletim da Sociedade Portuguesa de Química features two contributions from researchers at LSRE-LCM/ALiCE. This edition provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of chemistry in Portugal, explores the challenges faced by young researchers, and highlights the work being conducted by researchers in the field.
The first article, titled “Contaminantes Emergentes na Água: Presença de Antibióticos, e Agora,” authored by Ana M. Gorito and Ana Rita L. Ribeiro, addresses the research gaps related to the presence of emerging contaminants in the environment, highlighting the problematic of pharmaceuticals and specifically of antibiotics, a field that is being studied at LSRE-LCM under the framework of the ERC Starting Grant.
The second article, “Mecanismos de Mistura em Reatores Químicos 2D,” authored by Margarida Brito, offers an in-depth review of the research conducted at LSRE-LCM on mixing mechanisms in Confined Impinging Jets (CIJs), T-Jets, and Split-and-Recombine mixers.
