Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Ecology
  • Law

Christoph Ort focuses on Wastewater, Sewage, Sewage treatment, Environmental engineering and Effluent. His study brings together the fields of Sanitary sewer and Wastewater. His study in Sewage is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Illicit drug and Waste disposal.

His studies in Illicit drug integrate themes in fields like Ecstasy, Per capita, Cannabis and Environmental health. His work focuses on many connections between Sewage treatment and other disciplines, such as Pollutant, that overlap with his field of interest in Surface water. The concepts of his Environmental engineering study are interwoven with issues in Sampling, Statistics, Population density and Drug consumption.

His most cited work include:

  • Elimination of organic micropollutants in a municipal wastewater treatment plant upgraded with a full-scale post-ozonation followed by sand filtration. (575 citations)
  • Sampling for Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products (PPCPs) and Illicit Drugs in Wastewater Systems: Are Your Conclusions Valid? A Critical Review (324 citations)
  • Comparing illicit drug use in 19 European cities through sewage analysis. (308 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Wastewater, Environmental health, Environmental engineering, Illicit drug and Sewage treatment. Christoph Ort has researched Wastewater in several fields, including Environmental chemistry, Sampling, Effluent and Sewage. The various areas that Christoph Ort examines in his Environmental health study include Cannabis, Ecstasy, MDMA and Drug.

His research in the fields of Sanitary sewer overlaps with other disciplines such as Risk assessment. He combines subjects such as Drug consumption and Per capita with his study of Illicit drug. His study looks at the intersection of Sewage treatment and topics like Pollutant with Surface water and Environmental planning.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Wastewater (70.00%)
  • Environmental health (39.37%)
  • Environmental engineering (32.50%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Wastewater (70.00%)
  • Illicit drug (23.13%)
  • Environmental health (39.37%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Wastewater, Illicit drug, Environmental health, Wastewater based epidemiology and Scale are his primary areas of study. His studies deal with areas such as Per capita, MDMA, Sewage and Sewage treatment as well as Wastewater. His Sewage treatment research focuses on Drainage basin and how it connects with Environmental engineering.

His Environmental engineering study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Sampling. His Illicit drug research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sample and Standard solution. His Environmental health research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Legalization and Cannabis.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Enantiomeric profiling of chiral illicit drugs in a pan-European study (53 citations)
  • Spatio‐temporal assessment of illicit drug use at large scale: evidence from 7 years of international wastewater monitoring (52 citations)
  • Mass spectrometric strategies for the investigation of biomarkers of illicit drug use in wastewater (52 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Statistics
  • Ecology
  • Law

His primary areas of study are Wastewater, Illicit drug, Per capita, Amphetamine and Methamphetamine. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Environmental chemistry and Stimulant. The Environmental chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Drug consumption, Mass spectrometric and Biochemical engineering.

His research on Stimulant frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Environmental health. His study ties his expertise on Sample together with the subject of Illicit drug. His research integrates issues of Environmental engineering, Effluent, Drainage basin, Population data and Census in his study of Per capita.
