Nanoengineering for enhanced toxic metals adsorption: Nanoengineering for Enhanced Toxic Metals Adsorption: From Synthesis to Biorecognition

Author(s): Allwin Mabes Raj (Author), Aleksandra Lobnik (Supervisor), Aleš Lapanje (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2025

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Environmental contamination by toxic metals—such as Pb²⁺, Cr³⁺, and Hg²⁺—and organometallic species like monomethylmercury (MeHg) presents one of the most persistent global challenges due to their bioaccumulation, long-term toxicity, and resistance to degradation. This thesis addresses this critical issue through a multidisciplinary approach combining nanotechnology, environmental chemistry, biosensor engineering, and …

Inactivation of viruses in water by cold atmospheric plasma

Author(s): Arijana Filipić (Author), Jana Žel (Supervisor), David Dobnik (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2021

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Access to clean water is a key requirement for a good quality of life. However, due to climate change, population growth and lack of proper water treatment, the availability of clean water is in constant decline. Among the many waterborne contaminants, viruses present an increasing concern. Human waterborne viruses infect …
