Abstract:
The Micro- and Trace Analysis Centre (MiTAC) of the University of Antwerp was founded in 1980. The MiTAC’s Environmental Analysis group performs both fundamental and methodological research related to micro- and trace analysis with applications in the environment, cultural heritage conservation and material science. The main topics are: the atmospheric deposition of nutrients and heavy metals in the North Sea (e.g. air pollution from ships); aerosols in remote areas; the damage to historical buildings and medieval glass windows by sea salt and polluted air; aerosols in museums and most importantly churches; the relationship between aerosol concentration and health problems, etc. The group is also involved in projects regarding the development and testing of new analytical instruments and techniques for micro trace analysis and surface analysis.
