Research Interests
My research focuses on the development of microbiological processes, which aim to mitigate the anthropological footprint on the environment. I have studied the performance of microorganisms to degrade diverse pollutant compounds, like BTEX and CO2, moreover the scale-up of these processes. Currently, I study interactions between microorganisms and electrochemical systems to carry these reactions. I particularly enjoy developing new skills and solve new challenges with creativity.
