Paul Walker Announced as Speaker at the Scottish Contaminated Land Forum 2024
SOCOTEC is delighted to announce that our very own Microplastics expert, Paul Walker, will be presenting at the 13th annual conference on advances in land contamination assessment and remediation on Friday 13 September 2024, which aims to facilitate sharing of knowledge and expertise in the land contamination sector, while providing opportunities for face to face networking.
As the call to test for microplastics in our environment grows louder, it becomes increasingly important to standardise our testing methods. By understanding the various strategies available for testing, we can ensure that the results are not only accurate but also provide actionable data.
During his talk, Paul will discuss:
- What are microplastics
- Sampling considerations
- Preparation overview
- Analysis techniques
- What each technique can/cannot provide
- Which one to choose
- Microplastics as vectors research work overview
- What ISO/CEN are working on
