Alessandra Polettini

Alessandra Polettini is Associate Professor at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering of the University of Rome “La Sapienza”. Here she is lecturer of “Sanitary and Environmental Engineering” and “Solid Waste Treatment” in the Undergraduate and Master courses in Environmental Engineering. Her research interests include: the treatment and recycling of residues from the thermal treatment of waste, the environmental behavior of waste materials, anaerobic digestion of organic wastes and treatment of contaminated dredged sediments. She has coauthored over 150 scientific papers...Read more

Thomas Van Gerven

Prof. Dr. Ir. Tom Van Gerven is professor at the Department of Chemical Engineering of KU Leuven (Belgium). His research focuses on process intensification, in particular by the use of external and localised energy sources (ultrasound, light), to improve transport phenomena (mass and energy transfer, mixing) and chemical activation with the aim of resource efficiency and recovery. Fields in which these energy sources have been applied include solvent extraction, crystallisation, leaching, metal purification and CO2 valorisation. Another area of process intensification is the integration of...Read more

Katta J. Reddy

Professor KJ Reddy studies natural resources issues that pose major challenges to maintain sustainable environment. His research goals are to 1) develop a viable solution to millions of people around the world suffering from arsenic contaminated drinking water, 2) develop effective point-source carbon dioxide (CO2) mineralization technology to become a part of the solution to the climate change problem, and 3) create beneficial uses for produced water generated from energy resource extraction and energy production processes.Read more
