Laura Annamaria Pellegrini is a Full Professor of Chemical Plants (ING-IND/25) and is currently teaching “Unit Operations of Chemical Plants” to undergraduate students in Chemical Engineering. She leads GASP (Group on Advanced Separation Processes & GAS Processing), a group involved in research activities and projects regarding mainly the purification of sour gases and CO2 capture. Her research interests focus on modeling and simulation of separation processes and reacting systems in steady state and under transient conditions. Currently, always with Eni S.p.A., she is involved in the HydroClaus project, studying, mainly the modeling of the kinetic scheme, an innovative process for the alternative use of sulfur from gas purification plants in agriculture. She is a member of the European section of the Gas Processors Association. She is an associate of Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare and she is involved in the DarkSide collaborations and in the ARIA project for the production by cryogenic distillation of Argon depleted in 39Ar. She has collaborations in Italy and worldwide. She was the project manager of numerous research contracts between Politecnico di Milano and external companies. She has operated as a referee at International Congresses and as a peer reviewer for international journals. She has been an advisor/external reviewer of several Italian and foreign PhD theses.
