Supported Layered Double Hydroxides as CO2 Adsorbents for Sorption-enhanced H2 Production (eBook)

Dr. Diana Iruretagoyena studied for a BSc and MEng in Chemical Engineering at National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). In 2014, she completed her PhD at Imperial College London under the supervision of Prof. David Chadwick and Prof. Klaus Hellgardt and in collaboration with Prof. Milo Shaffer. Her research focused on the study of novel CO2 adsorbents and catalysts for sorption-enhanced hydrogen production. The work has resulted in a number of scientific publications and has been presented at international conferences and seminars. In addition, she was awarded the Julia Higgins Centenary Prize from the Department of Chemical Engineering for her outstanding work in her postgraduate studies. Currently, she is working as Research Associate at Imperial College London in the field of Reaction Engineering and Catalysis.
