Antonio Caporusso is a Researcher at Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development. He has been working for 7 years in the areas of Lignocellulosic Biomass Conversion and Bioprocess Technology. His work consists in using biotechnology tools to create innovative solutions in the fields of circular economy, green chemistry, and industrial chemistry. During PhD he worked on an innovative biorefinery process aimed at producing biofuels and bioplastics from lignocellulosic biomass through the use of oleaginous yeasts. Post-Doc activity was focused on the development of efficient and sustainable process technologies to convert Waste Cooking Oil into valuable products by biocatalysis with engineered systems. His expertise includes aspects of biomass pretreatment, fermentation in bench and pilot scale, microbial culture, process strategies, and downstream of the products. The importance of his research is highlighted in about 9 full papers published in high-quality peer‐reviewed journals. He also participated to different international conferences with oral presentations or poster sections.
