Biography

My research interests are focused on the following topics: Materials and gas separation processes by means of adsorption for carbon capture. It includes the following: - Synthesis of advanced and novel materials for post and pre-combustion CO2 capture, such as organic polymers, carbon-based adsorbents, low-cost biomass-based adsorbents, amine impregnated silicon-based adsorbents, polymeric and hybrid membranes, etc. -Characterization of the adsorbents: textural and chemical characterisation, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), FTIR spectroscopy, etc. - Enhancement of the CO2 recovery on carbon capture processes by means of novel and energetically more efficient technologies for the regeneration. It involves the experimental study in a bench-scale fixed adsorption column. -Design and construction of lab-scale set-ups for continuous dynamic carbon capture measurements. Recycling of polymeric waste: catalytic pyrolysis of mixed polymeric waste for the conversion into added-value chemicals and/or materials.
