International expertise in the field of catalytic fluorinations and hydrotreatments to establish and to identify the active sites involved in reactions under conditions close to the industrial process conditions. One of the few academic teams that studies these catalytic fluorinations. Facilities to adapt at a laboratory scale industrial problems and toidentify the key parameters. Kinetic modelling is also used to validate and explain experimental results.
Scientific leader of many private collaborations for 30 years (Arkema for 15 years, IFPEN for 30 years, Solvay for 20 years, Adisseo for 12 years, Total for 4 years, ...)
Coordinator of academic (French and foreign laboratories) with ANR programms (EcodHoc, Fluorcat, Passcata) since 2006
Head of « Fluoration et Hydrotraitement » Team (2006-2012)
Member of the Executive Committee of the French Fluorine Network (since 2002)
Supervisor of the first school on the Fluorine Chemistry (La Rochelle, 2018)
Supervisor of students and trainings: 35 PhD, 15 post doc, 20 training since the beginning of my career
Reviewer of projects: ANR, Regional project (Auvergne Rhone-Alpes ),International (Cofecub),Industrial (Cifre) and of articles for a lot of catalysis journals (Journal of catalysis, Applied Catalysis General A, Applied Catalysis B environmental, Fuel, Chemical Engineering Reasearch, …)
Jury member (Rapporteur) of PhD and HDR
70 publications, 4 patents, international seminars and communations.
