Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Environmental chemistry

Loretta Y. Li spends much of her time researching Environmental chemistry, Environmental engineering, Soil contamination, Leachate and Mineralogy. Loretta Y. Li has included themes like Contamination, Biodegradation, Pollutant and Pollution in her Environmental chemistry study. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Water pollution, Health risk assessment and Heavy metals.

Her Heavy metals research integrates issues from Bioremediation and Biochemical engineering. Loretta Y. Li combines subjects such as Soil classification, Mercury and Environmental remediation with her study of Soil contamination. The Mineralogy study which covers Settling that intersects with Bayer process and Hematite.

Her most cited work include:

  • Phytoremediation Technology: Hyper-accumulation Metals in Plants (558 citations)
  • Multivariate statistical analysis of heavy metals in street dust of Baoji, NW China. (319 citations)
  • Heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons: pollution and ecological risk assessment in street dust of Tehran. (269 citations)

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

Loretta Y. Li mainly focuses on Environmental chemistry, Environmental engineering, Leachate, Soil water and Bentonite. Her research integrates issues of Organic matter, Polybrominated diphenyl ethers, Pollutant, Sorption and Contamination in her study of Environmental chemistry. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Metal pollution and Pollution.

Her research in Soil water intersects with topics in Extraction and Agronomy. The study incorporates disciplines such as Hydraulic conductivity, Mineralogy, Clay minerals and Permeability in addition to Bentonite. Loretta Y. Li studied Soil contamination and Environmental remediation that intersect with Desorption and Kaolinite.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (43.45%)
  • Environmental engineering (21.38%)
  • Leachate (13.10%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Environmental chemistry (43.45%)
  • Sludge (8.97%)
  • Leachate (13.10%)

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

Her main research concerns Environmental chemistry, Sludge, Leachate, Activated carbon and Soil organic matter. Her Environmental chemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Contamination, Pollutant and Sorption. In general Contamination, her work in Environmental remediation is often linked to Cycling linking many areas of study.

Her Environmental remediation research incorporates themes from Soil contamination and Pulmonary surfactant, Triton X-100. Loretta Y. Li has included themes like Hydraulic conductivity, Fluorotelomer, Leaching and Permeability in her Leachate study. Her work in Soil water addresses issues such as Polybrominated diphenyl ethers, which are connected to fields such as Bentonite.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Review of the fate and transformation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in landfills (65 citations)
  • Adsorption of organic stormwater pollutants onto activated carbon from sewage sludge (60 citations)
  • Role of wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in environmental cycling of poly- and perfluoroalkyl (PFAS) compounds (21 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Groundwater

Loretta Y. Li mostly deals with Environmental chemistry, Pollutant, Sludge, Soil water and Activated carbon. Her research integrates issues of Contamination, Biodegradation and Landfill gas in her study of Environmental chemistry. Her Contamination study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Aeration and Environmental engineering, Effluent, Surface water.

Her work carried out in the field of Pollutant brings together such families of science as Waste management, Stormwater and Sewage sludge treatment. Loretta Y. Li has researched Sludge in several fields, including Pyrolysis, Biochar, Nitric acid and Sorbent. The various areas that she examines in her Soil water study include Bentonite, Fluoranthene and Kaolinite.
