Chem THEATRE

Welcome to ChemTHEATRE

ChemTHEATRE: Chemicals in the THEATRE [Tractable and Heuristic E-Archive for Traceability and Responsible-care Engagement] is the platform to deposit and visualize monitoring data of environmental contaminants more effectively than ever.

You can currently see so many monitoring data of environmental contaminants in scientific journals or reports by public organizations, but unfortunately in a variety of forms such as texts or excel files. That leads to poor use of such valuable data, which can be input data for the modeling and materials for validation.

To tackle this problem and make use of such data, we first put together such scattered data in one database: ChemTHEATRE, properly and well organized. It will ensure traceability of chemicals and help you simulate the environmental behavior and fate, or assess the risk. Moreover, ChemTHEATRE will make the prediction of global chemical pollution easier in cooperation with external database or other tools.

A web-interface to visualize global PCBs pollution is now available. Have a look at state-of-the-art numerical predictions of fate and transport of PCBs by the Finely-Advanced Transboundary Environmental model (FATE).
