Project 1: Simulate Biodiesel Production from Vegetable Oil using UNISIM Design R500 Software.
Supervisor:
Prof. Jesus Manuel Garcia Vargas,
Department of Chemical Engineering, UCLM, Spain
Project 2: Propose an ERC Advanced Research Grant on Sustainable Nanoencapsulated Phase Change Materials: Polyol Esters and Tannic Acid from Wine Industry Waste for Enhanced Thermal Regulation in Electronics.
Supervisor:
Prof. Juan Francisco Rodriguez Romero,
Department of Chemical Engineering, UCLM, Spain
Projects Activity: First, it involves simulating an alkali-catalyzed (NaOH) transesterification process in UniSim Design R500 to develop a continuous biodiesel production flowsheet from virgin rapeseed oil. Second, it explores upcycling wine industry waste into bio-based phase change materials (PCMs) for thermal regulation in electronics, using green synthesis of TAM-SiNPs to enhance conductivity and stability. Both approaches aim to optimize process efficiency, enable resource recovery, and contribute to sustainable industrial practices. For more [Project 1]; [Project 2].
