The Environmental Chemistry Group (ECG) is one of the 欧美AV’s many Interest Groups. Interest Groups are member-led groups, which exist to benefit 欧美AV members, and the wider chemical science community, and to meet the requirements of the 欧美AV’s strategy and charter.
Scope
The Environmental Chemistry Group (ECG) considers all aspects of the complex relationships between chemistry and the environment. The ECG aims to understand the behaviour of chemical species in the water, soil and atmospheric environments; exploring their sources, reactions, transport and in particular their effects on each of these environments. Chemicals may be of natural, anthropogenic, biogenic or geochemical origin.
Aims
- To promote the interests and expertise of members.
- To facilitate scientific discussion relating to environmental chemistry.
- To provide expert advice both within the 欧美AV and externally.
Activities
- Publication of the biannual ECG Bulletin, which is available online
- The Distinguished Guest Lecture (DGL) & Symposium, at which several invited speakers address a specific topic for a general audience, in support of the DGL award to an eminent figure in the field
- The group also organises meetings and events of more specialist interest. Please

Committee
The Environmental Chemistry Group (ECG) Committee is made up of members from both academia and industry. Each committee member is assigned a specific role so that ECG members can easily access someone for specific information on a Group activity. Suggestions from members for topics for future ECG meetings are also particularly welcome. Full details of our current committee are available on the .
