Bio and Research:
My doctoral research is currently focused on the chemical engineering/process modelling of agricultural-forage cropping systems.
Key roles: Application of systematic equations to parameterize specific geochemical or biochemical reactions in the agroecosystems. For instance,
1. Environmental impact assessment of cropping systems using SimaPro software
2. Process modeling of carbon and nitrogen biogeochemistry using DNDC model
3. Meta-analysis using CMA Software
4. Carbon Intensities calculation using the GREET model
As a chemical engineer with bachelor's and master’s degrees, I have conducted research mostly in the following areas: waste and biomass valorization, renewable energy generation, process design and economy, biotechnology, biochemical engineering, heterogeneous catalysis, environmental chemistry, and microbial processes and applications, in the context of utilizing sustainable resources.
