The first Associated International Laboratory of the CAP 20-25 project is on!
The creation of Laboratory of Environmental Processes and Remediation (LEPR), certified Associated International Laboratory (AIL) is the acknowledgement of the collaboration, since almost 15 years, between the research teams from the University of Clermont Auvergne and the University of Wuhan. This international laboratory is completely integrated in objectives of CAP 20-25 project, and particularly those in the Challenge 1 entitled “Sustainable agroecosystems in a context of global change”.
Context:
This project of LEPR is situated within the wider concern of environment quality contaminated by the use of chemicals in industrial production and agricultural. The presence of chemicals in environment compartment (water, soil and air) has an impact on human and environment health. The laboratory, through the outcomes of research, will allow a better understanding of these phenomena and the set-up of remediation processes.
Date:
Official launch of the AIL LEPR: Decembre, 11th 2020.
Key words:
Environmental remediation - processes for the decontamination – pollution of environmental compartment (soil, water, air) - Associated International Laboratory – Sino-French collaboration.
Location:
The Laboratory of Environmental Processes and Remediation Sino-French will be physically housed at the University of Wuhan.
Prospect:
Through their research, the laboratory would like to bring a better understanding of the degradation of contaminants released by humans or animals to create an effective protection of environmental compartments and his resources. The Laboratory of Environmental Processes and Remediation has a vocation to developing remediation tools for contaminants in air, water and soil. These outcomes of the researches could become a support for strategic decision for the environmental management.
