Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen
  • Ecology

Themistokles D. Lekkas mainly investigates Environmental chemistry, Wastewater, Chromatography, Nonylphenol and Sewage treatment. The concepts of his Environmental chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Haloacetic acids and Water treatment. His Wastewater study introduces a deeper knowledge of Environmental engineering.

His Chromatography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Trihalomethane and Volatile organic compound. His research investigates the connection between Nonylphenol and topics such as Effluent that intersect with problems in Contamination and Biodegradation. His Gas chromatography study incorporates themes from Sludge, Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry and Solid phase extraction.

His most cited work include:

  • Simultaneous determination of the endocrine disrupting compounds nonylphenol, nonylphenol ethoxylates, triclosan and bisphenol A in wastewater and sewage sludge by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. (276 citations)
  • Occurrence and fate of endocrine disrupters in Greek sewage treatment plants. (196 citations)
  • Contribution of primary and secondary treatment on the removal of benzothiazoles, benzotriazoles, endocrine disruptors, pharmaceuticals and perfluorinated compounds in a sewage treatment plant (141 citations)

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

His main research concerns Environmental chemistry, Chromatography, Haloacetic acids, Environmental engineering and Wastewater. His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Organic matter, Surface water, Chlorine, Adsorption and Water treatment. The Trihalomethane research Themistokles D. Lekkas does as part of his general Water treatment study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Adverse health effect, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

In his research, Solid phase extraction is intimately related to Sludge, which falls under the overarching field of Chromatography. His research investigates the connection between Environmental engineering and topics such as Water quality that intersect with issues in Pollution and Emission limit. His work carried out in the field of Wastewater brings together such families of science as Nonylphenol and Sewage treatment.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (55.88%)
  • Chromatography (27.94%)
  • Haloacetic acids (23.53%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2019)?

  • Environmental chemistry (55.88%)
  • Sewage treatment (14.71%)
  • Wastewater (22.06%)

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

Themistokles D. Lekkas mainly investigates Environmental chemistry, Sewage treatment, Wastewater, Nonylphenol and Chromatography. The study incorporates disciplines such as Raw water, Surface water and Desorption, Freundlich equation, Adsorption in addition to Environmental chemistry. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Energy consumption, Carbon footprint and Effluent.

His Wastewater study combines topics in areas such as Renewable energy and Greenhouse gas. The Nonylphenol study combines topics in areas such as Contamination, Secondary treatment, Biodegradation and Activated sludge. His Chromatography research focuses on Sludge and how it relates to Matrix, Gas chromatography, Derivatization and Solid phase extraction.

Between 2009 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Contribution of primary and secondary treatment on the removal of benzothiazoles, benzotriazoles, endocrine disruptors, pharmaceuticals and perfluorinated compounds in a sewage treatment plant (141 citations)
  • Fate of selected pharmaceuticals and synthetic endocrine disrupting compounds during wastewater treatment and sludge anaerobic digestion (136 citations)
  • An analytical method for the simultaneous trace determination of acidic pharmaceuticals and phenolic endocrine disrupting chemicals in wastewater and sewage sludge by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (87 citations)

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

  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen
  • Ecology

His primary areas of study are Wastewater, Sewage treatment, Nonylphenol, Environmental chemistry and Naproxen. Specifically, his work in Sewage treatment is concerned with the study of Activated sludge. He has researched Activated sludge in several fields, including Secondary treatment, Effluent, Contamination and Biodegradation.

His Naproxen study spans across into areas like Ketoprofen, Bisphenol and Triclosan. Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry is a primary field of his research addressed under Chromatography. His study in Solid phase extraction extends to Derivatization with its themes.
