Dr. Irma Robles is a Senior Researcher at the Center for Research and Technological Development in Electrochemistry (CIDETEQ, Querétaro, Mexico), within the Water and Environment Division. She holds a PhD in Environmental Engineering with a specialization in Electrochemistry and has over ten years of experience in the development of carbon-based functional materials derived from biomass and in advanced electrochemical oxidation processes for environmental applications. Her research focuses on the valorization of agro-industrial residues into activated carbons and biochars, the surface modification and structural characterization of carbonaceous materials, and their integration into electrochemical systems for water and wastewater treatment. She has worked extensively on the design and optimization of electro-Fenton, photoelectrochemical, and hybrid oxidation processes for the degradation of emerging contaminants. Dr. Robles’s work bridges materials science, environmental engineering, and electrochemical technology, emphasizing the relationship between structure, functionality, and performance in carbon materials. Her research also promotes the principles of sustainability and circular economy, transforming organic waste into high-value adsorbents and electrodes for clean water and pollution control, to contribute to the advancement of green technologies for environmental remediation and circular bioeconomy.
