Davide Vione
Professor of Chemistry, University of Turin, Italy
"Photodegradation of organic pollutants in surface waters"
Event: 25th European Meeting on Environmental Chemistry (EMEC25). Chania, Greece.
Partner Organisation: Association of Chemistry and the Environment (ACE)
Date: 23-25 November 2025
Davide Vione’s research is focused on photochemistry of surface and atmospheric waters, heterogeneous photocatalysis and other advanced oxidation processes for water treatment. He is the author of two books: Photobiogeochemistry of Organic Matter: Principles and Practices in Water Environments, and Surface Water Photochemistry. He also developed a software, named APEX (Aqueous Photochemistry of Environmentally-occurring Xenobiotics), which predicts half-life times and phototransformation kinetics of pollutants as a function of water chemistry and depth, including the photochemical formation of intermediates.
