Working on Biodegradable Polymers & interested in presenting at #SETACVienna?
Submit your abstract to our session 3.06 here: shorturl.at/yZ4mw
We are looking forward to a great session with you!

This ES&T study by @mtzumstein and team at @univienna @EDGE_Vienna explores the #biodegradation of water-soluble polymers by #wastewater microorganisms and examines the impact of protocol variations on process efficiency.
#OpenAccess: go.acs.org/awk
Very happy we could contribute to this great collaborative work lead by @MichiWagner4 and super excited to see the final outcome published in @Nature today!
A new substrate for #nitrification by #comammox microbes: #Guanidine
So glad to see this out in @Nature today – great collaborative effort from our @FWF Cluster of Excellence, @univienna, team @aalborg_uni, and @UFZ_de

very happy to see our work on water-soluble polymer biodegradation published in @EnvSciTech big congratulations @AKintzi on first phd publication! many thanks to collaborators, reviewers, and editor for all the support!
How to assess the biodegradation of water-soluble polymer by wastewater microorganism? Check out our new @EnvSciTech study on adapting standard biodegradation tests for water-soluble polymers.

MAJOR UPDATE: All planetary boundaries are assessed, and six are crossed.
For the first time ever, scientists have quantified all nine planetary boundaries. Six of them are already transgressed and we are increasing pressure on the others.

Can we design medically useful polyfluorinated chemicals that degrade in the environment? Our paper is a start -- aryl-F is key. Led by @fewill26 lab.

New @IPCC_CH Synthesis Report released
One of the most impressive figures relates to the fairness across generations. The generation of my kids born in 2010s will face substantially more heatwaves, heavy rainfall and droughts during an average lifetime than their grandparents.
