About this webinar
Environmental contamination often involves multiple potential sources, making it difficult to determine where pollutants originate and how they move through air, water, and soil systems. This webinar explores how isotopic techniques such as Carbon-14 can be used to trace contamination sources, characterize environmental processes, and support remediation, monitoring, and regulatory investigations.
What you’ll learn:
– Introduction to environmental isotope tracing
– Isotopic tools for pollution source and process identification (14C, B, Sr, Pb)
– Case studies in air, water, and soil contamination
– Multi-isotope approaches for environmental forensics
– Analytical services and reporting
– Q&A
