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.
