GENERAL
Biography
I am an engineer engaged in research, teaching, and consulting activities focused on the energy transition from a fossil-based economy to a low-carbon biobased economy. I have ten years of experience in selecting and implementing energy-efficient projects, particularly in thermal areas, as well as in renewable energy sources. My work involves energy, environmental, and exergy analysis, process integration, and the optimization of energy systems.
