PhD student

I study valorization of carbon dioxide from biogas production in the field of sustainable systems.

Carbon dioxide utilization from biobased sources

My research focuses on how carbon dioxide can lead to more sustainable production systems by describing and analyzing possible technologies and markets. It includes the evaluation of potential, environmental, and economic performance.

Research projects:

Local Synergies for Sustainable and Diversified CO₂ Utilization (2023-2027).
Valorization of carbon dioxide from biogas production (2020-2023).
