Lyzethly Cáceres

PhD in Chemistry, Universidad de Santiago de Chile, 2010, Chile. Teacher of Chemistry and Natural Sciences, UMCE, Chile. Research lines: 1. Sustainable science education through problem-based learning using real environmental issues and ICT. 2. Assessment of the environmental behavior (adsorption kinetics, adsorption-desorption, degradation and transport) of organic and inorganic contaminants in soils. 3. Prediction of the adsorption behavior of organic contaminants in soils using QSAR statistical models, and of their transport to groundwater using mathematical models (Hydrus-1D).
