Management and Assessment of Contaminants Research Lab
PI: Dr. Jun-Ray Macairan
Our goal is to understand the impacts of emerging pollutants on our environment and health. We are a dedicated team of researchers committed to investigating the effects and potential solutions to contaminants such as metals, organic pollutants, micro- and nanoplastics, among others.
Our work is rooted in the development of sustainable materials, with a particular emphasis on carbon dots and cellulose. These materials are not only environmentally friendly but also highly effective in the detection and remediation of emerging pollutants.
Join us as we explore, innovate, and strive to make a significant difference in the world. We invite you to learn more about our team, our research, and our commitment to sustainability.
Located in beautiful Peterborough, Ontario, Trent University offers a vibrant research environment with state-of-the-art facilities and a strong focus on sustainability.
