Treatment plants and other key locations of the public sewage system are suitable for its use, allowing for the detection of illegal dumping. You can read about Soluciones Espectroscópicas and other spin-off initiatives from the University of Oviedo and other Asturian organizations in El Comercio
Dr. Jonatan Fandiño has successfully defended his PhD Thesis, «New instrumentation based on atmospheric pressure and low pressure plasmas with detection by optical and mass spectrometry: application to direct analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs)». Due to the current COVID-19 outbreak, his dissertation took place remotely, following the University’s guidelines. Congratulations!!! Congratulations Dr. Fandiño!
Former GELP member César Álvarez-Llamas has been recognized by the editorial team of the Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry (JAAS) as an Outstanding Reviewer for the journal in 2018. Álvarez-Llamas is currently part of ICB Laboratory. Congratulations César!
