His profile is mainly connected to R+D projects related to solar water desalination, in particular with multi-effect distillation technology. He has also worked with membrane-based desalination processes and salinity gradient power technologies. He has participated as a researcher in seven EU projects (H2020, Interreg Atlantic Area Programme, FP7), two national project (Retos) and one international project (Qatar National Research Fund). From 2016 to 2018, he has been working as a research fellow at the University of Palermo (Italy) within the EU project RED-Heat-to-Power, for power production with waste heat through a closed-loop reverse electrodialysis heat engine. In 2019, he joined the 'Desalación Solar' group TEP-026 at the University of Seville, where he investigated the forward osmosis and pressure retarded osmosis processes. In 2020, he was contracted by the University of Almería as a postdoctoral researcher to work within the EU Project SOLWARIS, in MED modeling activities for water savings in commercial CSP plants. Since 2021, he is a research fellow within Solar Thermal Applications Unit at Plataforma Solar de Almería (PSA)-CIEMAT. By January 2023, he is co-author of 18 scientific articles (first author in 10 of them), co-author of one book in international publishing, and has 13 contributions to international congresses.
