About

Scientist and Manager of Environmental related projects with experience achieved in Spain & France after obtaining my Ph.D. (dr.rer.nat) in Germany & M.Sc./B.Sc. in Mexico. At my current affiliation at CIRCE Foundation (Zaragoza, Spain) as a Researcher, I work on projects that deal with Biomass valorization (e.g., organic waste into biogas), Improvement of wastewater treatment technologies and Biogas upgrading (e.g., via CO2 valorization with green hydrogen). Brief list of projects that I have managed / been involved in the past 10 years: ▣ AgroBioheat: "Promoting the penetration of agrobiomass heating solutions in European rural areas". ▣ RE4Industry: "100% Renewable Energies for Energy Intensive Industries". ▣ DEEP PURPLE: "Conversion of diluted mixed urban bio-wastes into sustainable materials and products in flexible purple photobiorefineries". ▣ iMETland: "Microbial Electrochemical Wetland for effective decentralized wastewater treatment". ▣ MIDES: "Microbial Desalination for Low Energy Drinking Water". ▣ BIORARE: "Microbial electrosynthesis for environmental biorefineries". ▣ DéfiH12: "Microbial electrolysis cell for bio-hydrogen production".
