RESEARCH !TERESTS

From 2002 until 2008, I worked as Research Associate at the Satake Centre for rain Process

!n"ineerin" #School of Chemical !n"ineerin" and Anal$tical Science, %ni&ersit$ of 'anchester, %()

formerl$ %'IS*+ Durin" that time, m$ main research focus was the de&elo-ment of &ia.le cereal/

.ased .iorefineries for the -roduction of food and non/food #.iofuels, -latform chemicals and

.iode"rada.le -lastics+ -roducts I ha&e em-lo$ed fundamental -rinci-les of .iochemical en"ineerin"

for the de&elo-ment of sustaina.le .iorefinin" strate"ies that com.ined -h$sical and .iolo"ical

en1$matic .iocatal$sis, modellin" and -rocess desi"ncostin" I ha&e used &arious microor"anisms

includin" .acteria, fun"i and $easts used for the -roduction of lactic acid #Lactobacillus plantarum,

Rhizopus oryzae+, ethanol #Saccharomyces sereviciae+, succinic acid #Actinobacillus succinogenes+,

-ol$h$dro$.ut$ric acid #Cupriavidus necator+ and en1$mes #Aspergillus awamori and Aspergillus

oryzae for the -roduction of am$lase and -rotease+ '$ research focussed on the o-timisation and

desi"n of -rocessin" s$stems as well as indi&idual unit o-erations

Since 3anuar$ 2004, I am workin" as 5ecturer at the De-artment of Food Science and *echnolo"$ in
