Academic background

  • TESIS DOCTORALES CIENCIAS
    Facultad de Ciencias (20/12/1982)
  • Doctor en Ciencias Químicas
    Universidad de Alicante (20/12/1982)
  • Grado de Licenciado
    Universidad Complutense de Madrid (18/07/1978)
  • Licenciado en Ciencias Qímicas

I studied Chemistry at the University of Alicante until third, when I went to the Complutense where I studied the specialty of Technical Chemistry (I obtained the extraordinary prize end of career in 1978). In 1982 I defended the doctoral thesis in Sciences and obtained the extraordinary doctorate award. During 1982 I was working at Dow Chemical B.V in Terneuzen (Holland) and since the end of that year I started as an assistant at the University of Alicante, where I have developed my teaching and research career. I have taught various subjects of Chemical Engineering, such as Chemical Reactor Engineering, Industrial Chemistry and fundamentally Matter Transfer Separation Operations and Experimentation II.

Since 1982 I have been carrying out an intense research work from the different positions I have held at the University of Alicante. I have worked mainly on topics such as the pyrolysis of polymers, both natural and synthetic, catalytic pyrolysis and its application in various fields such as the recycling of polymers and the reduction of the toxicity of tobacco smoke.  I have also worked in applied thermodynamics and phased balance where I have published numerous articles. The processing of polymers has been another area where I have developed an intense work. Also noteworthy is the CO2 capture line for microalgae cultivation and energy use, where two projects have been carried out with companies, the most important by REPSOL in the SOST-CO2 project.  I have also worked in other fields such as lubrication food technology. In total I have published more than 300 articles in indexed journals.  I have directed 33 doctoral theses. I have participated with papers and posters (more than 300 in total) in numerous congresses International. I have applied for 20 patents.  In addition, I have created two technology-based  companies (MEDCAT ALICANTE and SPACE FARMERS, attached to the Alicante Science Park).

I have been Persidente of the Commission of Science Curricula of the Madri+D Foundation for the verification of curricula of the Community of Madrid. I am a censor of numerous journals, I have been Chairman of two international congresses and member of the Working Party of Applied Thermodynamics of the European Federation of Chemical Engineers.

I have published 5 books, I am the author of 10 book chapters, 5 of them in the Handbook of Plasticizers.  I have directed 2 European projects. I have participated, mostly as an IP, in more than 80 projects financed with public funds (University, Autonomous Community, Ministries).  I have participated in 68 research projects (the vast majority as IP) with companies.
