PhD Chemical Engineer
Excellent initiative to visualize gender equality on the green hydrogen world
I am PhD Chemical Engineer with more than 5 years of project management background, concerning both applied and development research in technology centers, academia and consultancy services.
Most recently, I defended my PhD Thesis on January 2020 that was rated “Excellent Cum Laude” with International Mention. Among other things, my research has resulted in a novel methodology to solve long-term supply chain problems for the optimal upcycling of industrial waste gases into a hydrogen supply chain, but also, I tested and simulated hydrogen purification through polymeric-based membranes and cyclic adsorption processes.
I am currently working as project manager at CIDETEC Energy Storage. I am responsible for the coordination of several EU & national projects in the area of advanced battery technologies.
