2. Novel and applicable approaches for monitoring, evaluation and elimination of chemical pollutants and pesticides in water, soil and air including Arsenic, cadmium, chrome, aluminum, mercury, Asbestos, anti-boutiques Bis phenols A, hormones.
3- Chemical pollutants especially phenols in drinking water.
4- Screening of resources, distribution and environmental impact of all chemicals approved by Stockholm convention.
5- Management of pesticides, chemical pollutants and industrial wastes (Production, recycling, elimination).
6- Management of chemical wastes and modifies materials in all laboratories and industrials companies.
7- Management of safety in using chemical pollutants and pesticides.
8-Rapid and prompt detection of air pollutants in large cities including Data collection and report system, monitoring and mapping of pollutants " PEMsys", modeling procedure for control of distribution of pollutants.
9- New and novel model for risk reduction of all chemical pollutants and pesticides.
10- Environmental friendly compatible methods for reduction of chemical pollutants and pesticides.
11- Applicable methods for decomposition of pesticides and environmental pollutants in the nature.
12- Improvement of absorbents such as Nano composites, Nano magnetics, Nano composites for monitoring and evaluation of chemical pollutants and pesticides.
13- Localization for production of diagnostic kits for chemical pollutants and pesticides.
14- Providing up-to-date models for monitoring and evaluation of risk factors National comprehensive project on:
· Mapping of current usage,
· Distribution of all chemical pollutants and pesticides in the occupational compartments and environment ( metals, pesticides, POPs, PAHs) for whole country as online availability for decision making,
· Research activities at the national,
· International and regional levels Providing data bank information on chemical pollutants,
· Occupational hazards and industrial products
