Micro and nano plastic in agriculture: interactions with pesticide residues and bioaccumulation in plants

Author(s): Harshit Sahai (Author), María Dolores Hernando Guil (Supervisor), Amadeo R. Fernández-Alba (Co-Supervisor), Ester Heath (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2024

Type: Doctoral dissertation

A large body of data now exists demonstrating the influence of micro and nano plastics (MNPs) on living systems, and their detection has been documented across various ecosystems, including organisms that form part of the human diet. Nevertheless, up till now, a substantial portion of that research has been confined …

Optical emission spectroscopy as a tool for monitoring cold atmospheric pressure plasma processes

Author(s): Andrea Jurov (Author), Uroš Cvelbar (Supervisor), Nataša Hojnik (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2021

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Non-equilibrium atmospheric pressure plasmas are used in many areas, such as food and agriculture, plasma medicine, plasma surface modification, material synthesis and deposition. Because of their versatility, many plasma setups have been developed. Of greater interest are those that operate at atmospheric pressure, like atmospheric pressure plasma jets (APPJs). Regarding …
