Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Mineral
  • Metallurgy
  • Redox

Rafael Pérez-López focuses on Environmental chemistry, Acid mine drainage, Waste management, Fly ash and Leaching. The concepts of his Environmental chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Lessivage and Dissolution. His primary area of study in Acid mine drainage is in the field of Iberian Pyrite Belt.

His Iberian Pyrite Belt study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Oil shale and Environmental remediation. The Fly ash study which covers Coal combustion products that intersects with Hazardous waste, Bottom ash, Lime and Calcium carbonate. The various areas that Rafael Pérez-López examines in his Carbonation study include Calcium oxide and Calcium hydroxide.

His most cited work include:

  • Mineral sequestration of CO2 by aqueous carbonation of coal combustion fly-ash (262 citations)
  • Mineral sequestration of CO2 by aqueous carbonation of coal combustion fly-ash (262 citations)
  • Changes in mobility of hazardous elements during coal combustion in Santa Catarina power plant (Brazil) (157 citations)

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

Rafael Pérez-López spends much of his time researching Acid mine drainage, Environmental chemistry, Iberian Pyrite Belt, Phosphogypsum and Mineralogy. His Acid mine drainage research incorporates themes from Geochemistry, Sulfate, Sulfide and Dissolution. His Environmental chemistry research includes elements of Leaching, Metal and Pyrite.

His Iberian Pyrite Belt research incorporates themes from Tailings, Water pollution and Water quality. In his study, Coal combustion products and Chemical engineering is inextricably linked to Fly ash, which falls within the broad field of Mineralogy. His Waste management research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Carbonation and Carbonatation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Acid mine drainage (60.00%)
  • Environmental chemistry (50.48%)
  • Iberian Pyrite Belt (42.86%)

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

  • Environmental chemistry (50.48%)
  • Phosphogypsum (26.67%)
  • Acid mine drainage (60.00%)

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

Environmental chemistry, Phosphogypsum, Acid mine drainage, Leachate and Weathering are his primary areas of study. His Environmental chemistry research integrates issues from Gypsum, Sulfate and Geochemical modeling. The Iberian Pyrite Belt research he does as part of his general Acid mine drainage study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Precipitation, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Iberian Pyrite Belt, concentrating on Environmental protection and frequently concerns with Water resources. In his study, Fly ash, Industrial waste and Pulp and paper industry is strongly linked to Effluent, which falls under the umbrella field of Leachate. His research investigates the link between Weathering and topics such as Sulfide that cross with problems in Biogeochemical cycle.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Valorization of wastes from the fertilizer industry: Current status and future trends (33 citations)
  • Validation of the BCR sequential extraction procedure for natural radionuclides. (24 citations)
  • Characterization of the role of phosphogypsum foam in the transport of metals and radionuclides in the Southern Mediterranean Sea. (19 citations)

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

  • Mineral
  • Metallurgy
  • Redox

His main research concerns Phosphogypsum, Environmental chemistry, Leachate, Weathering and Extraction. His Phosphogypsum studies intersect with other disciplines such as Harmonization, Environmentally friendly, Order, Natural resource economics and Environmental impact assessment. The concepts of his Environmental chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Marine pollution, Dolomite, Dispersion and Gypsum, Halite.

Other disciplines of study, such as Seawater, Sorption and Low mobility, are mixed together with his Leachate studies. His Weathering research includes themes of Sulfide, Sulfate, Sulfur and Pyrite. His Extraction research incorporates a variety of disciplines, including Radionuclide, Uranium, Fraction, Isotopes of thorium and Polonium.
