Biography:
Carolina Belver is Associate Professor in Chemical Engineering Section at Autonomous University of Madrid, Spain since 2011. She received the Ph.D. in 2004 at University of Salamanca (Spain). Her specialization and current researches are related to design, processing and evaluation of novel heterostructures for applications in environmental remediation, mainly focused on heterogeneous catalysis and photocatalysis. Before the current position, she enjoyed competitive postdoctoral contracts at Catalysis and Petrochemistry Institute (2005- 2007), and Material Science Institute of Madrid (2008-2011), Spain. She is associate editor of the Chemical Engineering Journal, coauthor of more than 50 publications and eight chapter-books, and received in 2013 a Fulbright Fellowship. She has national and international collaborations mainly focused on synthesis of novel catalysts and adsorbents, and removal of pollutants by advanced oxidation technologies.
