About me

Passionate to apply chemical engineering principles to society and striving for a sustainable world!

My research interests lie within the field ofChemical Reaction Engineering and heterogeneous catalysis,with main focus on the development and optimization of renewable processes and sustainable products.
The design and analysis of the chemical reactors and processes (dynamic reactor models and control) are at the core of my research work, coupled with kinetics modelling in heterogeneously catalyzed systems (microkinetic and empirical LHHW models).
New reactor concepts and technologies meet new catalyst development for production of green fuels and chemicals in a technological multiscale symposium!

Processes of interest:
-Storage and delivery of renewable hydrogen using Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carriers (LOHC)
-CO2 utilization
-Selective hydrogenation and C-C coupling
-Aromatization & oligomerization of lower olefins and alkanes
-Synthesis of liquid hydrocarbons from syngas
-Catalytic cracking
