#05 EU researchers tackle pollution

Abstract:

Pollution affects us all, from the air we breathe, to the water we drink, to the food we eat. Pollution is the largest environmental cause of multiple mental and physical diseases, as well as premature deaths. In this episode of CORDIScovery, three EU-funded researchers discuss innovative solutions to tackle this health and environmental scourge:-

• Rosa Arias is a chemical engineer with a background in odour pollution.  Rosa is involved in the D-NOSES project that gives people the tools they need to record data from one of the most sensitive sensors we have, our noses!
• Fabio Galatioto explains how he and his colleagues through the APA project have developed disruptive technology to shake up our approach to air purifiers at home, work and on our streets.
• Ioannis Dontas, a physicist whose focus is on material and surface sciences, discusses how the IMPRESSIVE project is using drones and earth observation data to protect the environment.
