Biography
I work as a post doctoral researcher in the Department of Separation Sciences in the Mikkeli regional unit of LUT University. The main focus of my research is on microplastics and their assessment in a way that this new group of pollutants could be recognized and removed more efficiently from different types of wastewaters. In addition, I coordinate the Master's Programme in Water Technology.
