Rosa Busquets

Rosa Busquets is a Professor in the Department of Environmental and Geographical Sciences at Kingston University, School of Science. She is an active researcher with a prolific publication record in environmental chemistry, focusing on microplastics, water pollution, emerging contaminants, and nanomaterials for remediation. Her work spans analytical method development, environmental monitoring, and policy-relevant assessments, including contributions to UNEP reports.

Her research interests include:

• Microplastics and nanoplastics in aquatic and terrestrial systems
• Remediation of heavy metals and organic pollutants using advanced materials
• Nanotechnology applications in food and environmental safety
• Analysis of heterocyclic amines and other foodborne contaminants
• Environmental impacts of UV radiation and climate change

Her recent publications reveal a strong trend toward interdisciplinary environmental research, combining materials science, analytical chemistry, and ecotoxicology. She frequently collaborates with international teams and contributes to high-impact journals and UNEP assessments. Her work on coagulation, cryogels, biochar, and MXene composites highlights innovation in water treatment technologies.

Rosa Busquets has served as an editor for books on nanotechnologies in food science and has contributed chapters on advanced analytical methods. She has collaborated with numerous researchers and students, though formal advisees are not listed. Her involvement in projects on smart beehives and acoustic monitoring also indicates interest in environmental sensing technologies.
