Contexte de travail

The ANR EGOUT project (egout.cnrs.fr) is an interdisciplinary project that aims to lay the foundations for an observatory of Parisian practices, based on the monitoring of materials that pass through and accumulate in sewers. The project generates a wealth of geochemical data acquired on aqueous and sedimentary matrices.
