Research interests

  • Reactions and speciation of simple inorganic and organic molecules in the interface aqueous solution-air.
  • Speciation of metals in natural systems as natural waters and soil in Sweden and in developing countries in Africa
  • Structural and dynamics studies of inorganic ions in aqueous solution
  • Removal of arsenic from drinking water
  • Chemical reactions and mechanical properties of archaeological wood, in particular the historic Swedish warship the Vasa.
  • Synchrotron light based research
  • Structure determination of advanced inorganic materials as metal-organic frameworks

My research has been externally funded through grants with a turnover of ca 3 million SEK annually. I have close collaboration with Uppsala and Stockholm University with shared Ph.D. students.
