M Nieves PiƱa endeavors to apply her accumulated experience in the field of supramolecular chemistry to the generation of new hybrid nanomaterials capable of capturing environmental and labor pollutants. The aim of her studies is to obtain environmentally friendly materials, recyclable and reusable, applicable to the generation of filters as well as active and passive sensors. In order to obtain real data on the capture capacity of the new nanomaterials, she collaborates with IDAEA (Institute of Environmental Assessment and Water Research, CSIC), which performs environmental measurements, and with the Grup de Recerca en Salut Laboral (GRSL, UIB, Research on Professional Health Group) that sets measures in the work environment in the tasks of conditioning and repair of boat surfaces, one of the most important industries in the economy of the Balearic Islands.
