Research Officer, Centre for Environmental Research Innovation and Sustainability (CERIS), Atlantic Technological University My research interests revolve around the area of biomass and bioenergy. With a background in both chemistry and environmental chemistry, I am committed to contributing to the discovery of solutions that can help reduce carbon emissions and waste build-up in local communities. My expertise lies in hydrothermal processing of biomass, which I had the opportunity to explore during my master's thesis in Switzerland. Subsequently, I focused on producing bio-petroleum oil from microalgae using hydrothermal liquefaction. Additionally, I have worked on a project aimed at valorizing black liquor to produce hydrogen and agricultural waste to produce bio bitumen binder. My proficiency in this field makes me a valuable addition to any team focused on tackling the challenges of biomass and bioenergy.
