Dr. Pablo Brito-Parada is a Chemical Engineer (University of Yucatan) with a PhD in Mineral Processing (Imperial College London). His expertise is on the design and optimisation of multiphase separation processes and he has secured substantial research funding from industry and from the EC H2020 programme. Pablo is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Earth Science and Engineering at Imperial College London, where his research combines advanced experimental work and numerical modelling as a tool for equipment evaluation and design. He is an expert in froth flotation, and his team works on the modelling of pulp and froth phase phenomena, advanced control techniques, and experimental characterisation of flotation systems from bench to industrial scale. He led the froth flotation team at Imperial College’s Rio Tinto Centre for Advanced Mineral Recovery and has carried out industrial optimisation testwork on mineral concentrators worldwide. His research interests also include multi-criteria decision making, material flow analysis, and life cycle thinking, particularly for critical raw materials. He is an Editor of Elsevier’s Minerals Engineering journal and serves on the International Mineral Processing Council (IMPC).
